ok. so this isn't a post to ask how much you make or anything like that. this one's relatively simple

(this is actually aimed more at the NYC'ers).

how much bump in salary are you btn ny/USA vs. hkg AND did it provide you (in your opinion) with the same lifestyle??

right now i'm looking at a 20% bump in base (not sure of bonus) to move out to hkg (on top of relo)...but i'm just concerned that this isn't enough to keep my same lifestyle?

anyone have any thoughts? the bottom line imo is that while housing = 40-60% more in hkg (for a comparable place) all else is relatively cheaper so it somewhat balances itself out?

i'm just worried that i'll be 'relatively' poorer....from a financial perspective (though richer? from my cultural experience heh)
