I've considered it for way less. Until the AG's most recent re-interpretation of the AWB, Mass had many points that were better than where I live (Connecticut). In fact about 2 years ago, I was considering moving there and working in CT (I worked in a border town and was commuting half-way across the state each day. The Mass side of the line was much more affordable and for my interests was better for guns. Then, I got a new job closer to where I live.

Get a MechE/PetE degree, move to Texas, get oil company job with willingness to travel, make that after a few years on the job AND keep your freedom. Or start a successful business here too.
Not to mention $175K in Texas is like $500K in a lot of the northeast as far as what your dollar will get you. |

You know, that's just "ok" money in some areas of US; here is Northern VA, its "ok" money.
Most people I know have to make at LEAST $225k or so to make it work here.  $175k ? Pfft, dime a dozen here.

I doubt I'd do that for less than $300k....and even then it would need to be for a limited time.
$175k in Mass isn't much...unless it was enough money to maintain my primary residence and then just rent up there it isn't happening. Not giving up my guns and my rights to be around a bunch of left wing democrats. |

Abso-F*CKING-lutely not, and I'm not just saying that. I took an 8% pay cut just to move out of NY and don't regret it for one minute... Living in a free state where I can exercise my 2nd amendment right is more important to me than $$$.
Besides, what good is more $$$$ if I can't buy an unneutered AR, SBR and/or suppressors... |

It depends.
Let me write the Terms and Conditions of the agreement, and I'd probably "move" for less than that. I'd include terms such as housing/per diem for ~18 months after hire, reimbursement of travel expenses on the weekends before I "move", guarantee that I'd get 100% of the equity out of my house (including reimbursement of realtor's fees), paid health insurance, moving expenses, storage of household goods during the "move" period, severance agreement... |

Yes, but only for 5 years max.... But that's a HUGE income jump for me. I would live as cheap as possible up there with the intentions of paying cash for a home back home and a decent nest egg saved away.

Live in NH and commute to MA. Many of us do just that.
ETA: Make me an offer on my house which is 2 miles over the border. I know of a place that will be going on the market in a year or so that I want. |

There are plenty of towns within the vicinity where an individual could live well on 175k per year. There are even some towns that are reasonable with respect to issuing LTCs without restriction [if you don't care about restrictions or applicant burdens, getting a license is doable in every town, though some do go out of their way to make things difficult]. |
