Working in Oxford university

Hello,

I am a Sys admin/Devops with over 10 years experience. At my current job, i am getting good pay and savings, though career wise , it is a hole with no career/professional growth. I had applied to oxford university and am in final stages of hiring process. Though salary is way less and savings is also less.

With a family of 2 kids , what would you folks suggest? Jump to oxford or stay put where i am currently and make savings ?

    You only live once. Go to Oxford. It's not like you're going to quit your job and move to an island in the Indian Ocean.
