(25m) So I work in the finance industry in a really small, rural town not far from the big city which is where I live. I pull in roughly 30k a month and have good perks such as free gas and tolls, 40hrs a week, pretty much have it made and could retire in 10-15 years if I plan accordingly. However, the area is very depressing looking and there's not much going on for someone my age even in the big city. I've definitely felt the toll to my happiness and overall mental health.
Now, I have a job lined up that I could start at with a phone call. Same field, same role, slightly less pay and no perks but in a much more developed city; my best friend also happens to live there.
My apt has 4 months left and aside from that there's nothing else tying me up at my current job. Six figures in investments, minimal debt(less than 10k), financially I can afford the move.
Thanks in advance for the ideas and advice! :)
