Do you want a fancy car. Does your wife want to go to the salon twice a month and spend most of her life in malls. Do you want your 8 year old to have an ipad and an iphone (or at least do you want him to want one since most of the rich kids in his school has one or more). Do you want to spend most of your time outside work with colleagues complaining about the workplace and the place you live. If the answer to that is yes then go to ME. If the answer is no go to Europe.
It is as simple as that. The expat life is a sort of trap, you can claim that you won't fall into it, but there's actually no where else for an expat to go.
