Hey all

I just got accepted to KTH which i hear is one of the best universities in Sweden, unfortunately I'm in a dilemna. I have a great job and good salary and the company would soon become dependent on me after the main engineer leaves in the coming week and my salary can go as high as my greed goes :D. But on the other side if i quit my only source of income and go to Sweden to do my masters i'll change my lifestyle from Rock star to living on the edge...what do u think guys?

And about the major i chose, do u think its good to find high profile jobs? cause i think its becoming an evermore important topic in today's world.

And 1 more question, is it easy to find a Mechanical Engineering job in sweden if ur a foreigner?
Thnx guys
Elie
