What makes you think the job would end in 6 months? What’s with all the pessimism here?
What's the guarantee that it wouldn't?
I have an elderly friend in Michigan who almost made the mistake of moving to NC after being offered a job with a company he was contracting with. Once the contract ended, he was offered the job and turned it down and returned to Michigan. A few months later that very company tanked and was forced to lay of over half of its engineering staff..........
He had already sold his home in an upscale neighborhood in Shelby Twp. and moved to Warren in order to be able to afford the mortgage and pay for his apartment in NC.......
