[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are just trading your misery with his misery. Pass on the job. [/quote] Agreed. At 52 the trailing spouse will most likely not get a job anything close in responsibility or pay to their current job. In most cases, a move only works in middle age if the trailing spouse is willing to stay at home or takes a hobby job (or can move and continue working remotely). I wouldn't move unless you can fully support the family and your DH is okay with an early retirement, even though that may involve some sort of part-time or underemployment. I am a trailing spouse and made clear that if we moved for DH's job, I would not be expected to earn a professional salary again. [/quote]
