Thank you for your advice, but I already have a life (and more likely to keep it than someone in the USA*).

So glad for you your bank balance has benefited - that’s the most important thing...

*UK male life expectancy 78 years, USA 76 years
UK suicide rate 3.4 per 100k, USA 4.5 per 100k
UK infant mortality rate 5 deaths per 1k live births, USA 6.9 deaths per 1k live deaths
UK deaths from injuries 26 per 100k, USA 50 deaths per 100k
UK murder rate per million people 11.68, USA 42.01

Indeed. The US is over-rated esp. if you're poor and/or the wrong colour. But you do have the right to shoot each other, so that's all good...
