[quote=Anonymous]I am probably biased because this kind of move was the nail in the coffin of my parent's marriage.  In general, I don't think men handle being unemployed very well. My dad went from having a well paying job that didn't require a college degree to moving to an area that required a degree and taking minimum wage jobs for a year or two until he could get a consulting job in his previous field.  As kids we were adjusting to being in a new area away from our friends and extended family AND watching out parent's marriage implode.

Unless you can arrange one of those deals where your employer or connections will help arrange for job interviews for your spouse, I would not do it. The one situation where it worked well for a friend that moved for the wife to have better career opportunities, the husband was very unhappy with his job here and went back to school and became a teacher. Their kid was in kindergarten so not a big transition there and her parents retired where she moved.[/quote]
