Moving to Finland (with no job)

[Op999]

I know this is a personal question, but how much money are you planning to move there with? I wonder what would be a safe amount. I'm going through it too :/

I haven't put much thought into it really. I suppose, first, I have to determine whether the "hot Finnish blonde" who's in Finland now is worth a move there (our relationship was somewhat rocky at times here in the States; she blamed the different surroundings so I'm visiting this summer for up to 3 months to see if culture shock was really a factor). But, off the top of my head, I'd say at least $8-10K (and with a steady job -- my own business. I'm too much of an entrepreneur to slave away at a day job)...Omar

10 Grand for the summer...?

But as you're from Florida, why not come for late summer and the dip into the dark rainy autumn (or even better autumn into winter), and then determine how much surroundings might affect either one of you ...

And being here in the summer is really not reality. Everyone is in a good mood, the days never end, almost everyone is on holiday, parties, swimming... hmmm... sounds a little like Florida.

I think he meant 8-10K to move permanantly? Well, I will have less than that.
But I do have a place to live with no rent to pay.
