Is it worth money-wise moving from Liverpool (UK) with a gross income of 43500£ (50000€) and a 700£ (800€) rent to Geneva (Switzerland) with a salary of 105000CHF (105000€)

My goal is to capitalize myself.

Thanks!

Well if you do the numbers it’s financially interesting. The question is how interesting does it have to be for you to justify the move

If you move for the job consider living in France or otherwise in the canton of Vaud (e.g Nyon) and commuting. It’ll be more beneficial as the cost of living is high in Geneva but otherwise yes it is more financially interesting. But like SC1 said there are other factors to consider to justify the move (friend/family support network, speaking French would be beneficial, how many attachments you have in the UK, etc). Goodluck!

UK not being in EU anymore I think that creates a whole lot of complications as they'd need a residence permit there..

Generally OP I think its fairly close financially.
