Say you were offered the opportunity of a lifetime - the 'first prize' in your line of work and an opportunity you never thought you would have in your wildest dreams. Truly, a dream come true kind of situation. From there, the world (of your career) would be your oyster. In addition, taking this position would come with a super-fast green card (imagine yer a foreigner for a minute) with all legal fees paid for, which would mean you could stop worrying about having to live half way across the world from you DH if you ended up without a contract for a few months (a high-ish risk).
The drawback? For a year or two, you'd have to spend 4-5 months out of the year living an hour's flight away from your husband. In your first years of marriage.
But, the salary increase would be so substantial that you could visit each other for long weekends every week. (So, together 3 days, apart for 4).
Would you take it?
