Rationalising
Perth has a lower cost of living than here. I understand that. I also understand that salaries are relative. I am having such a hard time accepting that I can't get the same salary over there as I can here. I know it wouldn't be a backwards step, but I also know seeing a lesser amount deposited into my account each month is going to mess with my head.
I don't want to allow myself to get anxious about this. Logically, I get it, but it feels.... I dunno.
How do I get around that?

Stop thinking of reasons not to go! Yo uknow that's what you're doing! :)
Hmmm...ya know, it hadn't occured to me I was thinking that for that reason. I know I worry about some aspects of it all, but I haven't really thought I wouldn't go. I have to stop thinking 'scary' and start thinking 'exciting'. :-)
Find something small you can cut out of your regular expenditures and sock away a little money. That's what I do when I'm starting to feel overwhelmed and poor.
And HELL YES, go for Exciting.
Forget the money E,if you can find work you'll enjoy that's the ticket and T will be the icing on the cake
I'm with Rich on this one. You'll have a job that keeps you where you need to be financially, plus you'll have T which just bumps you up over the top ;)
It'll be great, just hang on to that fact and try not to sweat the stuff that really doesn't matter in the end, you know?
I'm just going to agree with everyone here. Excited, excited, excited!
Oooh - this came in my email today...
"Nothing can bring you peace but yourself"
It's Ralph Waldo Emerson.
It applies to me in about a million different ways right now, so I thought that I would share.
