Working the frontlines, Chloe, a nurse practioner making $120,000 a year has come to a realization: She wants to find a way to move to Europe and start her life over. How can she start the move? #MillennialMoneythestar.com/business/perso…
Here are Chloe's monthly finances. She's a homeowner, and is working to pay off her mortgage. An idea she has is to move earlier to Europe, start a business, while renting out her Toronto property. thestar.com/business/perso…

“I think quality of life is really important, and given my profession, I realize how short life can be. As a result, I think people need to enjoy it, and have a good balance of both saving and spending,” Chloe says.
The majority of economists surveyed by the Star forecast that Toronto’s home prices are set to decline by 30 per cent or more from the February peak to spring 2023.
