[quote=GUEST80199,454910]Why don't you give life in China a trial run - say for 1-2 years. That will give you time to see what living there is really like, and will make your wife more comfortable in the early stages of bringing up your second child - with her family around for support. You could come back to the UK, say every 3-4 months for a couple of weeks to keep an eye on your business, as well as monitoring things from a distance. When you are in China, you can look into possibilities of work there or maybe setting up in business. If you really love the life there - after 2-3 years you could sell up the business and use property rental in the UK as income in China. The cost of living is lower there. and if you rent, it can be much cheaper. Long term, you will probably get fed up and homesick, so you may want to come back for a month or so once a year. But remember, the grass IS always greener on the other side. So you need to keep your perspectives clear. You are young, so I'd say give it a try. It will get harder as you get older - especially for your kids. I'ts good for them to get used to the idea of moving from an early age if it is likely to happen for them at some time in their lives anyway...[/quote]
