Would you move 1000 miles away from everyone you know?
I live in TN and I'm thinking of moving to NYC when I get out of college at age 22.I want life to be an adventure: not sure I'd be happy living in Tennessee forever. Only prob is, I want to be an audio engineer and I'm afraid of not having job stability that far away from home. I plan to get summer jobs and put about $7000 in savings before making the move, and I won't have any student loans because I have a full scholarship to my college. What would you do in my situation? Would you be scared to leave everything behind?

As an audio engineer, job stability is not as common as you might hope. A lot of guys will string together work with various tours and one-offs. If you don't have experience or contacts in NYC, you're setting yourself up for a rude awakening. You'll be lucky working for free as an intern when you start off. $7k might last you a couple of months, depending on what your expenses are like. If you're determined to do it anyway, make some friendly contacts there BEFORE you move. Ideally, line up some work before you move.

I'm not sure..... I don't think I would for some time unless if I have a really good reason to.
Also, if I was in that position, I would make sure I had a hell of a lot more than $7000 in savings, especially if I was going to NYC because anyone that lives there would know NY is extremely expensive and just to be safe, I would make sure I had at least $20,000 or more before making the move because job hunting is a time consuming thing.
