Hi All,

We are still progressing our plans to move to the States, and are trying to gauge how much income we will need, in particular in the first two years when I would be at college and therefore not earning. One of the comments is that the cost of living is a lot less in the US, ie your money goes further.

So saying, for example, you income is the same in the US in dollars as it is in the UK in sterling (eg comparing earning $10k per annum against £10k), how do those that have made the move find it.

(I am not trying to pry into people's income, but I will still hopefully be able to earn an income as a shareholder in our UK company, and Aileen will work in the State's while I am at college. We need to try to guage what income we need to draw from our UK company)

Many thanks to you all.
