Ironically, he is back here due to a job transfer, but wouldn't hesitate to leave again if need be. In comparing him to many others around here his age, it is amazing how much more he has accumulated both in terms of wealth and experience because he wasn't afraid to take the necessary steps. And now, if need be, he wouldn't hesitate to pack up and go again if he had to.
