Re: relocation expenses



I will agree with this statement!  I was fortunate to find a job within my home state before graduation but moving within a few miles can be costly too!

I disagree wholeheartedly with the above statement.
When I moved from Massachusetts to Washington, D.C.,
the packing materials, U-Haul, and other moving
expenses cost me more than $2500.

This may not be "great expenses" in absolute terms,
but for a recent college grad with a lot of bills it's
very hard to scrape up a couple of thou to start a new
life with.  At least a person who sells their home
might make some money on the deal!  :)
