I’ve been wanting to move out of my Mom’s house for a while, and I originally wanted to move to Florida, but its, price, over-gentrified/fake/resort feel, overpriced mmj program, and Ron DeSantis turned me off, so I decided that I will try to move to Puerto Rico instead, hopefully by next year

anyway, what do y’all have?

    This sounds really interesting, why was it worth it to stay wherever you are?

      I don’t live there anymore - I moved again after 3 years to a different country.

      It was worth it because I got out of my home country which is a crap place to live - it turned a lot worse over the past decade too.

      Also because it was straight after high school, I did not have much going for me in career prospects. I ended up getting a bit lucky and meeting the right person and got a job as a 1st employee in a startup which didnt work out, but has given me so much experience that my career took off afterward and I managed to do quite well for myself.

      Just comparing my life to my brother who has basically taken the path I was going to, same type of career as well. My experiences past high school just seem so much better than his was/is. And in all honesty his life has been pretty good compared to the average of other people in my home country.
