If you have an engineering degree. If you don't it is way harder. You need to be fairly experienced for most jobs. And startups don't add sales, marketing and admin people until they have lots of money.

I already know that. I spent some time in eastern europe and girls were falling all over me (and I am just average looking). The problem is that its very difficult to settle and make a good living overseas.

from the sounds of it in this thread, it's very difficult to find a good job and make a living in a lot of the cities being discussed.

I actually have an engineering degree but ended up doing work unrelated to my major.

Well I have always been able to find decent jobs in usa. I don't really know how to go about moving overseas or to which countries.

Trust me other than money there is no incentive for me to live in usa.

It's very difficult to find a good job and earn a nice living anywhere in America, as the economy is very weak and only getting worse.

Avoid Boston contrary to popular advice. Avoid MA in general. People live to plan. Non-married people (men) past 30 in MA are seen as losers and potential pedophiles in an overly kid friendly state.

My recommendations:

NYC
Miami
Los Angeles.
Denver
Austin

I'm passing through Austin right now. I have friends here that go on and on about how many hot girls there are and how many ugly guys there are.

There are some really cool places down here. If I wasn't in the military, I would definitely consider moving down here.

yeah, most of my friends say things like that. personally i couldn't care less about being "valued". i simply enjoy being able to have sex with a different hot girl every night if i wish.
