The job is for an electrician at a major newspaper in Deeerfield Beach in Broward County (near Boca Raton). Salary is about the same he makes here.

The plus:
I could prob get a job
No more winters
We could afford a good life

The minus (and a huge one):
Missing friends and family

Re: DH got a job offer...

it's really nice there- my brother and Grandma live around there

my brother has a brand new 2 bedroom apartment- 2 full baths, huge kitchen

garage, driveway

pool

for $1300 a month

the only thing they hate is huricane season

flordia is a short plane ride to NY- and you can get tickets for less then $200 if you plan right

everyone will want to come visit you!

Your salary as a teacher would be a fraction of what teachers make here. I heard last year that TOP PAY for a FL teacher (years, credits, etc) is the same or less than starting salary in many LI districts.

In many other states, teachers must work a second job, for years, just to make ends meet.

In order to make the same salary as here you would have to leave teaching.

Just another possible minus to considerChat Icon
