I was on a bike trip one time and stayed in a motel in northern Minnesota, I got to talking to the owner and his wife about how they ended up there (IIRC they were from India or maybe Pakistan) and they said both of their kids were going to college in that town so they bought the hotel to be close to the kids. In 4 years both kids graduated from college and took jobs in different parts of the US and they were stuck there running the motel. They gave the same advice: Do not follow your kids.
