If money was not an issue, would you move to an entirely different state or country? (lemmy.world)

If yes, where would you move to?

If no, why not?

I ask this as someone who has moved around a lot (5 states) for better working opportunities. I often hear people say they wish they could leave their current city/state/country, but money is often (understandably) an issue.

Where I live in germany there is a saying: "Anderswo is auch scheiße". Literally translates to "Other places are also shit". So I'm currently not considering moving into another country. Though I often ask myself, what I would do if germany goes the nazi route again. The AfD is real scum.

Hahaha, I feel that quote a lot myself. Always see a bunch of rich kids saying they're going to leave the US, shit hole of a country, and out of their million dollar home and rich parents. I'd still love to travel since other places are a different flavour of shit, to break up the monotony, but I don't think I'd leave the US. Not until something bad happens (which may or may not be after 2025)
