Do you think it is easier/less stressful to "start a new life" in New Zealand being young and just out of college or coming over when you are married and have children? I am asking this because I am planning on coming to New Zealand from the US next year after I graduate. I always read about people having a hard time because they make a lot less money in NZ and it's hard to keep up with their old living standards. A recent graduate, though, really wouldn't be ass affected by this I would think. Also, most of the families who immigrate already have a decent sized savings account and are able to sell their house, thus having a lot more money when they arrive. A recent grad wouldn't definitely not have this ammount of money. I was just wondering what you all think about these scenarios. Thanks in advance for your opinions!
