My friends and I made the decision to leave Vancouver and now living the expat life in Asia. We're finance guys and it was the best career and life decision ever.

Vancouver is for $30k millionaires, living at home and driving BMWs while working dead end office jobs; refusing to take advantage of the mining supercycle in Alberta and Saskatchewan and watching the world pass them by.
I agree with you from a career standpoint, but you still pay a price (one of best places to live and raise family) to make your fortune elsewhere. You can do it in Vancouver if you really want .......you just have to be creative....most likely owning you own biz....
