Is it better to be a big fish in a small pond or a small fish in a big pond?

But as I already said if everyone is already educated in the village?

Yeah but I already said about 'backward village'

I think a person can make a much bigger impact in a city...village is small.. a good mayor of a city can help millions of people living in a city.

Honest question, why do people live in villages in first world countries with 100% literacy rate?

Personal preferences...peace of mind, closer circle of friends, healthy life.

Because the world is cruel and there are levels of have’s and have nots. The extreme have nots are either living in a poor town/village or have moved to the city to search for work. There they crowd many into a tiny apartment and work low wage jobs. They may even be forced to turn to crime to make ends meet (or live a lifestyle way beyond their means) or simply be intimidating troublemakers or vandalists in their spare time.

This chases away the have’s to towns/villages where there is little industry but high home costs. This isn’t an appealling place to live for a typical have not. The have’s end up surrounded by other have’s with similar income (which means they probably aren’t complete morons). Crime can be almost non-existent

Depends on your level of complexity.

Without complexity, you will feel OKAY where ever your passion takes you.

They question whether you like challenge or easy life.

Think of it in any possible way, like,
- Would you rather live as a rich guy in 3rd world country or a middle class guy in 1st world country
- An educated guy in an illiterate village vs a mediocre guy in a big city
- A small apartment in posh area vs a big house in outskirts of city.
- Having a lead role in Pakistani film industry vs a small role in hollywood

Discuss.

The area won't matter, the size of my role won't matter .... as long as ... I have freedom to think out of the box and have decision making powers ...... My input is appreciated and my words are given an ear to listen to and a brain to think about.

In Pakistan a big city is normally filled with mindless greedy people, with heaps of garbage ...... lots of barriers to cross before your thoughts could make a difference, and in a village or some small town with close community, my educational background and my financial status can bring a very healthy change ..... because those people do tend to respect wisdom.
