If you had to move, where would you go?

If I had limitless cash in a reliable currency (pounds, US dollars, Aus dollars, euros), I'd go to Argentina (how hard was that to guess?) and take occasional trips to Chile. If having to work was still a consideration, then having lived in a number of places around the world, Australia would be my choice.

Hard question. You can't compare tourist experiences you have had in a country with what it would be like to actually make a life there. I've been to New Zealand, and it's very nice there, but I'm not cut out to be a sheep farmer, and I don't really want to work in the tourist industry. I don't like the public, and tourists are the worst.

Europe is expensive as hell, and there is no elbow room.

Maybe Canada? It's pretty similar to the US. Australia is pretty nice too.

Am I rich in this fantasy world? Or do I have to find a job?

Back in 1994, I seriously considered staying in Argentina as a permanent move and got a fair way through the negotiation of the visa side of things while living on $400 US a month which was the wage I was earning. A couple of brushes with immigration (one at the border post in the middle of the Andes) and the tax department as well as the fact that my degree wouldn't be recognised made me decide that perhaps Oz wasn't so bad after all.
