Life What would you do if offered a paid relocation to Punta Cana? - Page 7

**Mr. Flopnuts** · 09-23-2016, 09:58 AM

Because that's what just happened in my world. I literally just took a job as the Director of Sales for a company running 6-8 road teams and it's a great job. This would be a demotion but it's a ****ing paid relocation to Punta Cana and housing on an all inclusive 5 star resort for 60 days. I have zero kids. A couple of dogs that would have to come later. It's a demotion however, although it's still plenty of money in a place that requires very little. Closer to Venezuela than Florida so the Coke runs like water. Whew. Part of me says stay focused on retiring ASAP, and part of me says YOLO this kind of is. What would you do? What would Jesus do? What would Nickhead do?

I encouraged you in real life to go for it, on here I think I need to put a caveat on that recommendation. If it endangers the love of your life, nada chance. You have the people and job skills that can be used anywhere to make good money. If there is any iffy security issues whatsoever, Wait for another oppertunity.

It comes down to my wife. She really wants to go, but is naive as **** to the dangers this world harbors. I've worked hard to keep it that way, and I'm going to continue doing so. I appreciate the well thought out post here, because I was thinking it, but not saying it out loud.

Please don't deliberately keep your woman naive.
Wtf floppy. You could die the day after you get there.

She knows how to keep herself safe. She knows some bad shit happens in the world. I just don't want to go into great detail of it with her is all.

Exactly. She gets lured off the safe zone in any way when I'm not around and POOF. Who knows? I'll pass. An amazing opportunity if I was single, but if it's meant to be, I'll get offered something in St Thomas or somewhere genuinely amazing.
