Damn that's a lot of moving. Hopefully it's for good reasons? Part of my stress also definitely involves a move. That shit is stressful
That's a good question that I never really examined until you asked. The city moves were related to school and work, fairly typical stuff. Then there were 9 same-city upgrades, which seems high. I guess every time I get the renewal letter, it's not just a rent hike, it's a reminder that I'll be free to choose again in the near future. I'm just renting an apartment for me, so there's no mortgage involved and no kids to enroll in a new school district. I can see why people might not want to do this so often and I might settle down at some point, but I think it's been worth it overall.
