Summary
Thinking of moving to the big city? In this episode, I explain why it is essential that you use the city strategically – otherwise, it will end up using you. In today’s world, cities are best treated as temporary launchpads for opportunity – places to build income or meet a partner. However, once you’ve secured those advantages, the smart move is to look for the door. Get in, get out. When it comes to real quality of life, smaller cities are the future.
