Awesome! What an interesting read!
This is very interesting to me particularly, because DH works in a very Scorpio sector-- investments and retirement accounts. Ideas we have been toying with have been moving closer to MY family (we currently live close to his family), and whether or not DH should accept a new, potentially much more high-paying position at his present workplace (here, at the financial company). Things we are wondering about-- it's a new position and the pay isn't set in stone yet-- will they renege on the amount they have stated so far? He has to sign up for at least a 6 month contract to that position if he takes it. That would be very disappointing if the pay didn't make it worth it. Oh, and the hours would still be long, but that's not different than now. My grandma is hoping that we might move across the US to where she lives and get that DH will find a job there. We are visiting her for Thanksgiving week. She set up a meeting for him with her financial planner (on the 24th), hoping that he might make a business connection there. But it seems like a long shot to me.

We just really could use some change. We need more money.

And personally, I'd love to move closer to my family. But I'm also scared-- DH has never lived so far away from his family. What if he hated it? What if find that *I* hate it there? Oh, and DH has serious misgivings about moving to CA right now, just due to economic issues. But then, we probably wouldn't have the opportunity to move yet, anyway. I hate when I have no idea what's going to happen!
