With he continuing devaluation of the US Dollar, high inflation, and lack of high paying (over 100k) jobs in the US, is it advisable to work and move to Europe?

Wow... there are a lot of ignorant answers here. I've lived in Europe and it's not bad. Better health care and yes - their salaries are much higher. Take the minimum wage in Luxembourg for example; it's 1,570.28 Euros per month which is US$2,304.49 per month or US$14.40 per hour based on a 40 hour work week. France has a 35 hour work week and a minimum wage of US$1,878.58 per month or US$13.41 per hour. Now remember, these are minimum wages and most people earn way more than that. Anyway, the US has pathetic wages - the minimum being in Georgia at $5.15 per hour and the highest in California at $8 per hour with really not many jobs paying over $20 per hour. Check the local classifieds and you'll see these cheap employers actually acting as if that's a lot of money! No way!!! A friend of mine in a similar situation would only earn about US$46,000 per year but is earning 83,000 Euros a year in Germany - which equates to US$121,808.04! In Europe students don't have to pay for their education; their taxes cover that. My brother lives in Europe and got his MBA for free! It's unheard of for students to have jobs and student loans over there. Anyway, I'd say - live wherever the money is.

I know someone who has been living in Prague for quite a few years now and seems to really love it. He says that people have less than we do but are happier. If you can get a company that will move you out there, that seems ideal. I don't know about just packing up and moving there. You might be homesick and have trouble adjusting. It's a different culture. Take a trip over there. That's the best advice. Talk to the locals.

lol, they won't hire you! It's very hard to get employment there as a non EU citizen.
If you have dual I'd go with the Netherlands then. Taxes will be very high and they are having immigration tension but I still feel it's pleasant, progressive and mindful of its citizens. Also as convenient as living in the US in terms of transportation, shopping, mundane things. Only place in Europe I'd say that about thus far. And you can always go to Belgium or France if you want tastier food.

Europe is having a lot of government issues, I would stick to the US, even though it is getting horrible, it still is the best, I would not move to Europe if I were you...places like Nebraska, and Mo and Wisconsin are not that very expensive places to live...also I am sure there are other people! Ask your family!

Europe has a very high taxation system. America is still the place to live (reasonably) freely and comfortably.

If warm weather means a better quality of life, then explain Africa.

I wouldn't move to Europe, but that's just me.
I hear that Texas, Illinois, Tennesee, and Kansas are really nice places to live.

No. I've heard one of the best places to live is in Idaho, of all places. I live in the heart of Idaho, Boise. It's pretty great here, but yea.
