Moving abroad is overrated. All pro gamers have to travel a lot and I bet the majority of them are used to it. Sounds like a comment from someone who has never left their back yard. I've lived in 4 different countries. Adjusting is easy and fun.
Many players don't know what's best for them. They follow the easy money, but should also think long term. I remember when Sheth left Korea and his results have been lacking ever since + I have no respect for someone who throws away an opportunity like that.

It's a bit condescending of you to claim that progamers' decision hinges on easy money, and they "don't know what's best for themselves", while completely ignoring the mental health reasons. You actually didn't even address the point of my post which was about the mental health reasons, but instead insinuated that anyone who claims mental health is really just chasing easy money. Again it's condescending and oddly harsh. It's also inaccurate to claim that international tournaments are "easy money".
