I sold my consulting business and existing clients to a company in the same business and signed a one year transitional consulting position with them as i transfer everything over.
It is near the end and i was thinking of going to South East Asia for a few monthes....but Apple has offered me a position making the same money i was making working for myself. Only thing is, i need to move to Calgary...what to do.
 
based on the limited information at hand I would opt for Apple. The far East will be there in a year or two.

I would counsel the opposite. Calgary will be there in a year or two. Go to Southeast Asia. You are only young once.

Make sure you get pay in stock options. Things look good for Apple for next year or two.

If things don't work out at Apple, there's HP west, they've huge presence in Singapore & great job relocation program by buds who's did the transfer.
 
Considering the labor crunch in Alberta, why not have both?

Tell Apple that you accept the position, conditional on a 3-month delay in your start date. If they want you badly enough, they will agree.
