Probably not. The only thing I don't like about the place I'm living in now is having to deal with winter and snow but if money is not an issue I could come up with ways to deal with that better aswell. I don't think I would appreciate summer to the extent I do now if I didn't also have to suffer thru winter.

If I had infinite money I would've moved to Japan, if I had like hundreds of thousands or millions I'd moved to Taiwan, if I had only the money to move and get settled (i.e. stable job and and a roof) I'd moved to one of the Scandinavian countries, Finland or Netherlands. I guess Canada and the UK would also be fine by me just for cultural and lingual reasons.
I already did that. Here I am.
The three things that stop me moving to another country are money (or ability to get a job for the money I need), family (I have an elderly mum who I need to be around for) and residency issues (thanks Brexit). I guess if I was super rich I would be able to get residency more easily, but in the absence of a teletransporter it wouldn't fix the family issue.
I won't..
Trying to move to Senegal against all financial odds.
Probably wouldn't hesitate as long as I knew I could occasionally return to visit. Was in the military and stationed over seas. Would love to live in Germany again, have a friend that lives in Netherlands and frankly looks like a great place to live. Another friend lives on the coast in Japan and is raising a family there. Would if I could but lack the income to make it viable.
If money were* not an issue
When using be in an if clause for an unreal conditional sentence, always conjugate it as were, no matter what the subject is. Even if the subject is first-person singular (I) or third-person singular (he, she, or it), still use were with an if clause in unreal conditional sentences.

I like to use “were” in subjunctive mood too, but what do you hope to gain in this correction? I see the value in controlling how you speak but I genuinely don’t see the value in correcting others. Language is descriptive not prescriptive, so while this is valuable toward teaching your children it just makes you look an asshole in the public square.

If money was no object I'd move a lot of other people out of my current state and I'd stay here. Geography and climate are fine for me, but there's too many fucking Republicans. Money no object, every last one would be relocated to a holding urn in low orbit of Venus.
