Official Hiro Moving to Pittsburgh Poll

[Hiro]

I currently have 2000 in the bank, though I will be getting another paycheck before I move, and I am buying a laptop for $860, so prior to moving I should have roughly $1300.
Plane ticket will cost about $230. I have no idea how much of my stuff I'll be able to bring with me. Probably just clothes and a few video games.
Rent will cost $200 a month
I'll have to buy this, to sleep in a large closet: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B009HDYDYK/
I'll need to buy food and personal hygiene products occasionally.
Job market seems fine, though I'm unsure of my abilities to actually get one. My current job pays roughly $550 a month.
Will need to pay for the bus; though that will be cheap, it'll be frequent.

Ron's a good online friend, though he can be off-putting at times and I have no idea how we'd interact in person. He'd introduce me to his friends, and while they might be good, considering  my social history who knows if I'd care for them or them me. I have friends in Arizona, though they're getting more spread out and with no car I'm unable to ever see any of them.

I'm just laying out information here and only wondering what Boyah's consensus is. It won't influence my decision.

This is not a good decision to make this a poll

i'd charge him $900 for 5 months rent

[Kalahari Inkantation]

imo this whole idea seems way too impulsive and unplanned

forgive me if i get some of the details wrong but uprooting yourself from your stable but perhaps not entirely satisfactory life to go live with a friend you've never met in person on the other side of the country in which (i'm assuming) you have no other friends or family, and with no job or other means of support (aside from said friend) in place for you from the moment you arrive there, on the off-chance that perhaps things might turn out to be better for you, seems like such a huge risk that i don't know why anyone is encouraging you to blindly go ahead with this, at least not without first being better prepared for what would certainly be a massive and uncertain diversion from your current routine

how sure are you that you'll absolutely be more content than you are at the moment after moving

have you ever even been to pittsburgh

[spoiler]

you know they don't call it pittsburgh for nothing[/spoiler]

[silvertone]

you shouldnt do it because lawlz is black

[ncba93ivyase]

also important thing to consider

hiro would lose his virginity to a woman guaranteed if he moves here and that would be the end of hiro as we see him today

[Commander Fuckass]

For all we know lawlz is just gonna buy him a hooker

[ncba93ivyase]

he said a lesbian friend (  ) would meet him here because her sister lives nearby

he and the lesbian would do it

I don't think you understand how that works

[ncba93ivyase]

I don't think you understand how that works

hiro's the one who said he'd have sex with a lesbian

not me

[strongbad]

this is the kind of thing that could go either way
like if you do it, 10 years from now you could look back on it and be like "that semi-impulsive decision was the best thing i ever did"

and you can always go back home if it sucks

and i don't think that anybody on boyah is qualified to make this decision
like, are you happy where you are? do you see yourself being happy where you are in 5 years?
if not, then i think moving is a great idea. sure, there's risk, but financially it seems pretty small. i mean getting a job shouldn't take that long if it is your #1 priority.

and if that risk is scaring you, take into consideration high-demand industries. doing home care aide for people with disabilities or the elderly is in super high demand, and you usually get paid to go through he certification process. just an example, but you can always reconsider what you can do to make money

and i can't speak for lawlz since i dont really know him but as of lately i've started to see that he could be a nice guy irl, and i think he could be a beneficial person to live with (in terms of cool interests, seems to be doing stuff with his life, etc). skype with him more if you are worried about socializing

my 2 cents

hiro's the one who said he'd have sex with a lesbian

not me

I think a lot of people would

but would they have sex with Hiro?

hiro says she will fly across the country to have sex with him
