    Most Expats here are for the money.

    Agreed

    Offer somebody $100k a month in HK or $70k in say Hawaii and they'll take HK anyday

    Yes of course given that HK on a CV (money aside) is definitely a plus as compared to Hawaii, unless you are studying ocean related matters perhaps or are into the retirement business. Not to mention that from HK you have the whole of Asia at your doorstep, hardly the case in Hawaii.

    You surely could have taken a better comparison Jimbo

    Mat

    I'm comparing money over lifestyle
    HK pollution which is the most common gripe amongst you expats but you still choose here.

    I'd choose 70k in Hawaii over 100k in HK any day!!! I thought Jimbo was being sarcastic as this choice seemed so obvious!
