I agree, all comes down to finances really along with the life style you wish to have...When your brought up having X Y or Z, its hard to give it all up. The whole point in me moving somewhere like Thailand is having more and a better lifestyle overall than what I have now...else I would not go. While Materialism in the world might have gone too far in some cases, im not a monk who can be happy with nothing but the clothes on my back and meditating all day long.
