<prompt> Human: Edit 2: Thanks everyone for the replies. I would be saying the same thing to another person. For what its worth, she DOES want me there, but I get it. On a brighter note, I was called today and offered a construction project manager position with a previous colleague. I may take a slight pay cut but it is right in my wheelhouse. I will be meeting with him Monday to discuss specifics.Edit 1: Still havent found employment in wifes city but trying! Savings up to 26k. Got a 3 raise putting currently salary at 55k, which was unexpected,130: Hello guys! Long story short, Im looking to move to join my wife during her last 15 months of medical school. I currently only see her on weekends, and I dont think I can make it that long away from her, and in my current job Im under qualified and overwhelmed. My idea is to get something in her universitys city that I can leave at the office, and not care about quitting in 15 months, or something like that.I have 23k in savings.Expenses are: 200 per month - Car750 per month rent Will drop to 500 when we share living expenses.320 per month Health insurance for us both through employer. Cobra cost would be exorbitant so i would attempt to find something on the marketplace.50 per month PhoneCan I pull this off? If so, what should be my target range? I think I could get by with 15-20 per hour. Ive paid off 60k of her 120k loans at 6.5 so the interest savings there has been great for us, and she can handle the rest! Ill continue to update this monthly.  <response>: You wife is most likely going to move in 15 months... and how much time are you honestly going to have during the week. You will be missing your wife even if she is around :Rather than making the move now, why dont you wait till after she gets a residency someplace, hopefully in a program that will keep her in the same place-ish - because she will be there for a good 3 years at least, right?So, you can stay the course for the next 15months and plan to move for the residency, which she should be at for a good chunk of time, or you can move now, and put yourself in the same situation you are in now less than a year and a half down the line.
