On a serious note, I don't enjoy living in Toronto, but moving here really helped me achieve three things:

1. Grow the fuck up (arguable)
2. Buy my own place
3. Be financially ahead (subjective - whatever this even means)

I don't have a GT3 or a $5M home, but thinking about at how long I stayed in Vancouver, things would be a lot different and I'd be living in the past.

Having said that, a few thoughts when I come back to Vancouver:

1. I miss my friends (you guys know who you are)
2. Life slows down a bit. It's a very different pace of life
3. The opportunities are not as abundant as compared to Toronto and you are competing with fewer people for these high paying jobs

If I were to move back, I'd likely end up working at Home Depot, and that's even if they'll accept me.
