I've been planning on moving from the small town I live in to a much larger city an hour away. Knowing the potential chaos and unpredictable financial market responses to Trump Administration legislation this has made me reevaluate those plans.

Originally my plan was to sell my house, rent an apartment for a year or two while my youngest starts school and my wife returns to work then buy a new house or condo in the larger city. But now it appears the smarter move would be to commute until we can buy and hang into our asset.

At this point I'm basically in "wait and see" mode and making the smaller improvements in myself and my finances that I can now then I'll figure it out based on what the new year ultimately holds. I might absolutely hate commuting and find ourselves at each other's necks like the last time we worked ourselves this hard (at one point my wife worked 1pm-2am at a factory that had mandatory 11 hours days while I worked a standard 8-5 and we hated it) or maybe we'll find we can make it work for a year or more and move later
