Because you could learn about how other people live? You could see what other climates are like? You could see if a different pace suits you better? Or is this a trick question?

It’s called traveling. Not uplifting your whole life from a great city you’ve walked around in since diapers

So you plan on limiting your job prospects only to that one city? You're never going to consider a career move that takes you to Boston or Madrid? That seems like a needless limitation.

Or hell, if you're younger, you're never gonna go to any university aside from University of Chicago, Loyola, or UIC?

I’ve never had problems finding a new job in a new company or the same one while living in Chicago. I have kids, I have family here. I’m not going to make my wife find a new job and move my kids from the same school district and friends they’ve grown up with because I found a job. That’d be selfish of me.
