Quit high tc job for a girl

Move to low col for a girl? Would you do this? (Not only for girl, but mainly for her. Other reasons are nightlife, hobbies, wlb, culture) Assume job is easy going and low stress. No overtime or oncall. Just enough tc to live day to day on. Assume you have enough savings alone for a house there and 30 years of living expenses. And you are under 30 years old #amazon #google #meta Tc 400 -> 90k usd? Nw 1.5m

Hell no wtf

LCOL $150k I would. But $90k isn’t worth it.

It'll be cheaper to move her to you.

Apple amer8can OP May 6

We live together now. She doesn't want to live in bay anymore. I kind of don't either.

Man up bruh. If you don’t like it either, you aren’t really doing it “for her”, are you?

Why not see if you can work from the LC area temporarily? 6 months maybe.

Chase money girls will follow. Chase girls, neither will follow

While partly true, this is often a tagline regurgitated by incels. If you meet the right girl, that's a bigger accomplishment than 400k TC. And there's plenty of good remote work. Still get a comprehensive prenup, but I'm sure everyone here knows that TC doesn't bring happiness. It's just a hamster wheel.

drag it on for a while? work from lcol Modnay/Friday. Drag it on as long as you won't get ultimatum - make sure to get a remote/lcol offer in the meantime.

Is she worth 400k per year? That’s really the core question

No chick is.

But we do lots more for it

Several times I chose my career over relationship and I can tell you, most of these were not good decisions. It's much easier to find a good job than a good girl.

Yet you were able to keep finding new girls because your career kept taking off?

Where is there a LCOL area w things to do and culture? I assume you're leaving the country.
