I believe that very very few professionals, especially medical doctors, such as [nayr69sg] will migrate, probably because a significant majority of them have worked very hard, made a very significant amount of money in a low income tax jurisdiction, probably accumulated significant monetary and financial assets, and therefore, the risk and opportunity cost may be considered too high.
I salute [nayr69sg] for his research, determination, perseverance, taking the risk, for his effort to migrate.
I believe that very few individuals in his position in life at that time, of migration, would give up a career as a medical doctor, to work in a factory in Edmonton.
He deserves his success and satisfaction at his current stage in life.
He made it happened.
Whereas for me, the opportunity cost was very much lower, because I was much younger, had less than $1,000 in my CPF account, and I had been working in Toronto for several years prior to applying for "landed immigrant" or permanent resident status.
