Would you move for work or to please your family?

i actually hate the area where i live, but i love my family dearly. most of them live here. my grandfather is 91 and my grandmother is nearly just as old. how can i leave them? my hubby got a job offer for a huge raise. he didnt take it as we will lose more than earthly possessions. what would you do?

i m in germany now with my family, we r from india as my husband is on a deputation we stay here for few years. it is difficult to stay far away from our dearones but sometimes u cant help it n have to do n its better we my family is together if it was only my husband should be alone here then the difficulties arise but as we r together we dont have any problem now yes its obvious that we miss our parents but its fine now as compared to before when we were new here if a job is really good then u have to giveup few things to achieve few things n its important to dedicate ur job if u want achieve something in life

If I was not buying a home and was asked to move to another job that would profit my family and myself I would come home and discuss it with my family and then go from there.I would also want to check out the area that the job is at and what the schools and the such are like to make sure that it is a suitable and comfortable for me and my family, but it would be a good thing to move it was agreed by all and made it worthwhile to me and my family

I am really attached to where I live now, all of my family is here. The only way I would move for a job is if they were going to pay me so much money that I couldn't resist. My husband wanted to move to Colorado, his father lives there, all of my family lives here in New Jersey. We had the biggest fight, because he said that I was hurting his dream because he always wanted to move to Colorado. I know no one there except his father, my husband is not the working type, and there was no way I was going to move to a state I know nothing about to work while he sat on the porch looking at the Rockies. My mother is sick, and there is no way I will be that far away from her. I told my husband that his father left him as a child and moved to Colorado when he left my husband's mother. If I could take my whole family with me and they were willing to go, I would reconsider a move

Family always comes first but due to financial circumstances, you would sacrifice your love for family by moving to a place nearn your work. But family is always best to live close to.

At this point in my life I would not consider moving for a job. Both sides of my family live here, this is where I was born and raised. And now my son has planted his roots here. I am financially set for the most part and I work for myself in a business that I built from the ground up. I have not interest in starting all over again when it comes to working, nor do I plan on working for another company. Since I am single I always make it known that I have no interest in moving so if that is a remote possibility then I probally am not the person for you. I have been a lot of places that I would like to stay for an extended vacation, but no other place that I would like to call home. I admire people that despite there ties to their families, can just pick up and start a new life from scratch.

I would move to a warmer climate. I am probably about 8-10 years away from retirement, so have been thinking along that line - not about a job, although I would most likely need a job. In some ways it would be easy to move and in other ways not. I would have to leave my family behind. I am divorced so would be on my own. It would be exciting! Best wishes!
