7. Ask yourself this

Mon Nov 4, 2013, 11:35 PM

Nov 2013

Are you happy where you are? Do you think you would enjoy living in a larger city? If the move results in you being miserable then the monetary aspects should factor into the equation at all. Have you tried making a pro and con list for both locations to help put the situation into better perspective and will the pay increase cover the cost of living changes?

In the end the first question you should ask yourself isn't can I do it but should be will I be happy if I do it?
