Was considering visiting New Zealand, but having next to no real reason to stay here, figured I just might move altogether.

Aside from "Where?", can anyone tell me if it's even a good idea, or how much money I should have before I could even consider it?
(Let alone the $1,000 one-way plane ticket)

Also, how are the schools?
That's the kicker. If I can move there and school there - I'd like to, but otherwise, I may as well bang out 4 more years of hell here and then ship out somewhere with a skill under my belt.

Thanks /trv/!
