To the OP: I am encouraging you to make the move - it may be one of the best decisions you'll make in your life. Think about this carefully.

This goes beyond 'different strokes'. There is a right and a wrong way to plan for your future. I suppose there are a numerous right ways and numerous wrong ways and the dividing line is a bit blurry, but there is a line nonetheless.
You can't possibly encourage him to make this move with the information we have.
OP: only make this move if you will have all your expenses covered, retirement savings covered (definitely meet with your financial adviser to confirm your numbers, too), education savings covered, etc. Ignore the advice of dreamers as they give bad advice every single time. You need to make this decision based 100% on cold, sober logic.
