I would never impose on anyone - - but some of us here invested the money when they sold the house and those investments have increased by a factor of 10x... I don't quite understand the 'burning bridges' cliche. I can move back anytime I want - I still have friends back there, but I did not give up the ability to return...
of course, the truth is that if you have money, no matter where you live, you have more choices.
