Life Choices

Hello monkeys, An opportunity has presented itself to make the move to NYC from MCOL (which I have wanted to do) for an AM role at a big shop. I’m currently in a role (1.5 YOE) where I am learning a ton and genuinely developing as a professional. Is it worth taking the risk and moving to a new role (comp similar)? My exits will be similar from both, but likely better in NYC. Let me know your thoughts!
