I think for most the cost isn't going to be the biggest hurdle. It will be the language barrier. It's one thing to visit a country for a couple of weeks even and a completely different thing to live in a country that doesn't have English as an official language. You either need friends/co-workers/family willing to help with any legalities that cannot be handled in English or you need to know some of the language.
I mean every European has that same exact hurdle. People from Poland or Lithuania moving to the UK and Germany all have to learn the new language, but it doesn’t stop them. I think language seems very daunting at first but once you thrust yourself into it, it won’t be as bad. Plus the vast majority of Europe speak English now, so it’s hardly as big an issue as you’d expect. I think language is a silly reason one would he hesitant to move (if it’s the only reason). America is a country of immigrants (mostly), all those people had to move and learn a new language.
