Take a remote job with a California wage but live in a better-run state.

  I already do that. This isn't career motivated. Had a kid and wife wants to live closer to grandparents. It falls to me to run the numbers, and boy are they ugly.

    Is the family portable? Like it might be cheaper to buy them a house near you.

      That would be the ideal scenario. We've pitched this to the grandparents and they aren't biting.

        Maybe visit them a bunch with the kid for a while to hook them on the drug, then stop doing it and renew the invitation for them to move. That's what my parents did to my grandparents.
