A Job Offer

Last night I got a job offer from some friends back East. They're opening an art gallery in Alexandria in a few months and offered me a job. I'd do some sales, but mostly it would be clerical/admin stuff in support of the gallery. Tracking shipping, buying supplies, that kind of thing.
On the con side, the job would be a big pay cut. About $15,000. And the benefits would be limited.
But, on the pro side, it would be back East where the cost of living is cheaper, and I don't have any real debt so it would be just me. Also, the work would be in an environment that is totally different from the one I'm working in now. And, I'd be closer to family. Just an 8 hour drive up the coast, instead of a 14 hour airplane flight across the country.
I told them I'd think about it and get back to them next week.
Honestly, I'm leaning toward taking the job.
But I want some input.
So, this is your chance.
Let me know what y'all think.
Still alive and considering a life changing opportunity. - G.
