Continental europe base, in 7 years I have never flown more than 630 hours. Money more than adequate (more than the 10k mentioned) and 180+ days at home per year, full time, between off, lve and unused sby. I decided to live where I am based and never looked back. Life is pretty awesome, and i don’t see a single reason to change.
A lot depends on your tax situation, but enough deals in europe to pay very reasonable amount of taxes for a long time, if you do your research.
