Like I said, at best 2 years living in Hong Kong. Maybe 3 years

Also the property I stated is enough of a decent size (by Hong Kong standards), in the cheapest complex in the cheapest suburb

You are not invested with 1.5 over 10 years, it slowly builts up over time. So 80% of 1.5 M is very optimistic, more like half of that, if you are lucky.

DDDO got it right, the problem is the uncertainty. Tough call to move without knowing what to expect financially.
