[quote=Anonymous]Are you already in finance and do you have leads on IB jobs in London or Paris? Do you have an idea of how much money you'd make at said jobs? Do you know what your lifestyle would look at with that type of salary -- how big of an apartment with what amenities, where, how much of a commute, what would you do about the kids' school -- esp about the 4 yr old who'll be in kindergarten soon, could you afford private? People in DC can't stop complaining about how expensive everything is and how terrible the commute is -- if you're one of those people, do you realize how much "worse" life is in London even on a banking salary?

Does your wife work? Does she want to continue to work? Would she be able to do that in London or Paris -- would she be able to get a job and the right visas and would you all be able to afford childcare? Or is she going to have to give something up professionally to support your dreams of London or Paris?

Have you looked into these specifics and talked them through with her? Or do you just say -- I want to go to London or Paris -- and she says no bc she has no idea what you're thinking and why you think it would work?[/quote]
