Barring unforeseen circumstances, Moshiach, soon please.
I can't imagine my chassidish sons in the army.

DH and I were discussing this recently. If we have enough money to purchase a home in Israel and still keep our home in the US and DH has a parnassah then we are more or less ready to go through the hurdle of learning a new language, willing to deal with the emotional changes for my kids (I'm assuming they have it hardest) and being able to be far from family. Otherwise we are ready to go.

Good American salary job security for both of us and an affordable home in a good Anglo community.

Moshiach
Or if it miraculously becomes a safer place to live in then with job security I would potentially move to an Anglo community.

I don't think it's possible to be "ready.". It's just too, too impossibly overwhelming. But we are looking into it because of the situation in the United States. It's important to try!

Magically acquiring Hebrew language skills. I would go in a minute.
If the situation in the US becomes unlivable - and it isn't; not yet anyway - I would be more motivated.

Dh being 100% on board. I would do it tomorrow, if I had his buy in. He's not against it, he would love to live in Israel, but feels it is impractical. I disagree, but I'm not about to hound him over it. The other thing would be either my parents also making aliyah or knowing I'd have the money to come back to the US to visit my family 2-3 times a year.

Isn't it amazing that we are even discussing "the situation in the United States?". Last year, would you have even thought about a "situation"? To me, that is just so unbelievably frightening... somehow I thought the United States would remain immune to antisemitism like it seemed in my childhood....

Being able to afford to live decently. Not a big home or American style even. We made aliyah many years ago when we were just married. Gave birth to a bunch of sabras. And I speak Hebrew fluently. But at this point in my life it would be hard to be sooooo poor again.

Moshaich.
Or we win the lottery and 1) convince our parents to come with and 2) finance it for them.
I'm not taking my kids away from their grandparents.

If my daughter would move, I would. I just don't want to live 6000 miles away.

Honestly the draft scares me. I'm not ok with my boys in the army and that's enough for me to say I'm never making Aliyah.
Otherwise, I'd be willing to brave a small living space, new culture and language. I love Israel and would love the zchus to live there.

I made Aliyah. I left to get married. (or perhaps I was kicked out because I was not careful enough about mitzvos). If DH was on board I'd be there in.a heartbeat.
