It has to be an extremely good idea to consider what sacrifices you would have to make to emigrate to NZ, especially if you are already reasonably content, have a good lifestyle and satisfactory well-paying job.

It may be that a good holiday or adventure is what is needed rather than a move to another country.

I think that those who make it here are those that are tired of their present life, who are prepared to accept that life will be different in NZ, that there will be sacrifices "but hey we can rise above those", and most of all be able to cease comparing the two countries.
