Re: Would any of you move to LV in my situation.

I don't see why you would not go in an instant. Rolled for 1/2NL -- good. 8k Savings -- no worries, you can always fall back on this. 6 months unemployment LOL after discharge -- you even have a steady income that won't eat up your time. Really no furniture or asetts to move -- going to LV isn't going to be a hassle at all! Cons I don't know ANYBODY in LV -- well, you probably don't know anybody pretty much everywhere. So unless you plan on spending your life living down the street from mom and dad, get out and meet some people. LV people eat,drink,sleep just like the people in Maryland. It can get hot -- yeah, it does that pretty much everywhere in America during the summer. I say give it a shot, or spend the rest of your life (living close to mom and dad) wondering if you could have made it in LV [/ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] I moved here a year ago last week with 2 suitcases and a cat, following losing everything in FL to a hurricane and an ex-wife. No job, no friends or family, no place to live, and had never been to Vegas before. No problem. I don't regret it a single bit. I love it here. My life has been great. If I were thinking of doing this in your situation, I'd leave smoke trails getting here. Life is a great adventure to those willing to leave the house. "This ain't no dress rehearsal." Seriously, if you don't have something to tell the grandkids, you've wasted a great gift. Life. Do it now, while you have time to recover if you've screwed up. [/ QUOTE ] Do it before you have more responsibilites and you're young. Good luck and I'll be there a couple of years behind you! |

Easy call - why NOT do it?
If you don't like it, you haven't moved a house full of crap, a wife, kids, etc there and you can just up and move someplace else at any time. As far as not knowing anyone in LV, lots of people that don't know anyone in LV because they just moved there so you won't be alone in that respect. Most people aren't locals, it's sorta boom-town-ish which can be interesting in itself. Great place to be in the friggin crane business! |

Re: Would any of you move to LV in my situation.
8 Years ago yesterday, I threw all my stuff in my car, grabbed the $1k I had to my name, and started driving to Vegas with no place and no job. It worked out fine. You are obviously in great shape comparably if you want to give it a shot.
