PM me if you’d like
i probably work closely with the company you are referring to and can likely give you some insight
williepep -ChicagoTom -Do it faggit. Post pics along the way too. Sounds awesome. You only get one chance at life.
Dr Dsle Doback would be proud.
I can imagine him making some comment about getting outside the wire and. Experiencing a few things.
Most definitely he would!
ABCTT_GROUNDnLB -If your wife is going to go back to work after, then you need to consider her ability to get employed after.
My friend from university moved with his wife to another country for a fantastic job opportunity for him. He got a $25k bump up in salary. They didn’t realize losing her salary $45k while there and her being out of work for a fair bit of time when they came back, made them WORSE off.
If you are doing this for more money, you need to look at the total impact to the HOUSEHOLD income, not just yours.
His wife is a teacher. Maybe try to land a job teaching English to little kids?

Good point! That’s something my wife and I have discussed. It has to be more than our current combined salaries for me to accept it as well.
Lots of ins, lots of outs on this.
Do it. Your kid isn’t in school yet so it’s perfect.

I was going to suggest this too. She may be able to work over there, and she shouldn't have much trouble getting a job when y'all come back, either.
Nope.
badpvtdan -Nope.
Why not?
clattymine -badpvtdan -Nope.
Why not?
I’m curious why not as well, it seems like it’s worth the leap currently
does your wife do well with solitude?
morotetsuke - does your wife do well with solitude?
Kind of like Lost in Translation?
How is this even a question?
Go to Japan and bang hit nip bitches on the side when your wife is playing with the kid.
If she can get a job teaching there, or your new salary is greater than current combined, absolutely, yes. Do it yesterday.
You really enjoy your life and family. Be happy appreciate what you have.
Jesus. No brainer. your wife can easily pick up few days teaching English in Japan.
And last I heard, teaching jobs are still required so when u get back the downtime wouldn't be much if at all
Well the wife has done a complete 180, and will not move to Japan. The tensions been huge in the house, if I take the job and move it will probably cause a divorce at this point.
FUCK

Go anyway. Abscence makes the heart grow fonder.

It's not worth it then.
But maybe give her some time, she might just need a little time to work through some anxieties about the move.
Thank God you never joined the military. If all you’re looking at is the present, you’re already in the wrong headspace as a family. You need to think of your future as well. Your wife also needs to realize this. If you guys aren’t planning for things five and 10 years down the road, you’re doing it wrong. 18 months is NOTHING!! You’ll be kicking yourselves in the ass in two years. Sometimes you need to sacrifice your comfort zone to win in life, otherwise you’ll never leave it. Imagine being afraid to go to college outside of your hometown and staying in the same little area for your entire life working the local trade and scraping by. That’s the equivalent
