Decide Whether to Accept a Relocation Package
The relocation offer is exciting and terrifying in equal measure, and excitement is a poor basis for uprooting your life. This maps the financial picture (salary uplift against cost of living, moving costs, housing) and weighs the career impact, so an emotional decision gets a structure. For anyone offered a move to a new city.

**Turn an emotionally loaded decision into a structured analysis.**
1. Map the financial picture: salary uplift minus increased cost of living, relocation costs, and housing differential.
2. Assess career impact: does this role accelerate trajectory or is it a lateral move?
3. Evaluate personal factors: partner's career, family proximity, social network disruption.
4. Identify the reversibility of the decision: how hard is it to come back if it does not work out?
5. Set out three conditions under which accepting is clearly right and three under which it is clearly wrong.
