re: #96 PT Barnum
not everyone can do that, first of all. We have had several big employers get bought out/leave for Mexico in my state. Those jobs go away, but family and other attachments and responsibilities don’t.
Again, it’s about choices. ALL of my immediate family (parents, two sisters and their spouses/ children) all still live in Mass.
I moved from there twice for jobs. It was more important for me to take care of MY wife and child than for me to see my niece in a dance recital
