This might sound crazy to you, but people from all walks of life do this EVERY DAY.
Don't even know if that was a serious question. Of course people move to start a new job, it's called life. I graduated college (which was 1600 miles away from home), moved four states away to instruct for a year, and then moved half way across the country for a regional job.
If you're thinking this is "crazy" you haven't done much living.

Huh? What are you talking about? Did you quote the wrong post? My mommy and daddy have been dead for years. So I’m not sure about your point.

I. Your position go where you can get flying, cost of living, and maybe someplace cool to live. A time will come when the “R” word kicks in. Responsibilities. It will seem that you have fewer and fewer choices.

With all due respect, why do you make the presumption that the OP will have kids in the future? Kids are not for everyone, just like college isn't for everyone, especially right after high school.

Only those with a burning desire to do so should have kids! Not fair to the kids otherwise.

But you don’t know. I’ve known people who resolved to never have kids then ended up as great parents. I know people who really wanted kids and never were “blessed” (or cursed, depending on your point of view) with them.
The thing is, as you get older the likelihood is that you will have responsibilities. You may not, but you may. Mortgages. 401k. Car payment. You name it.
Do the things when you are young that you may not be able to do later.

But hey. You’re right. I’m wrong. What do I know?
