Don't recommend Tokyo. It's probably one of the the least hospitable prefectures for immigrants and the real estate agents understand the massive value of urban sprawl. Most realtorsl flat out refuse to sell to immigrants and you'll find that anybody with a house within eyeshot doesn't really trust you. Houses are usually built very cheap (of course, the gaijin tax will make it very expensive) to a low standard of quality, homes aren't expected to be passed down to children.

Unless you're fluent in Japanese and went to a top school, you won't be able to find a job as an EE. If you do, you'll be forced into the salary-man lifestyle working for peanuts. You'll have a much more fulfilling life completing your career and earning your money in almost any other first world nation.

Japan is romanticized because our nook of the internet derives a lot of culture from the land of the rising sun. If your heart's set on moving there, go on a vacation and scope things out. Talk to realtors, talk to home-owners, talk to any business owner you'd visit on a regular basis. Don't get sucked into spending two weeks visiting cat and maid cafes or sampling all of the local ramen, that stuff's only fun if you're a tourist with no responsibilities and too much cash to blow.
>We like expensive clothes and nice furniture.
Of course you do.

>a $3000 car
An $800 Geo Metro will do. It's easy to fix and is pretty reliable, you won't be paying out the ass for gas, and you'll have a much lower premium.
>Laser eye surgery ... for $6000
An optometrist covered by your insurance and $80 glasses will work almost as well.
>Good deal, I will spend the $500/month or whatever it might cost.
Jesus, you shouldn't need to spend any more than $6-10 per head for day of food. Eat only calorie-rich, cheap foods like rice, beans, lentils, and spinach. Visit farmer's markets and bargain for a week's worth of food. Buy multivitamins if you're missing anything in your diet.

Come on buddy, there's a whole field for sociologists who come up with whatever convoluted explanations they can to explain social trends that are immediately clear if they didn't arbitrarily omit g from analysis. His work doesn't acknowledge it's existence, which is unscientific to say the least.

Here, for example, is a meta-study looking at the pointlessness of research trying to explain parental socialization on criminality
>The role of parenting in the prediction of criminal involvement: findings from a nationally representative sample of youth and a sample of adopted youth.
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25602937

>The role of parenting in the development of criminal behavior has been the source of a vast amount of research, with the majority of studies detecting statistically significant associations between dimensions of parenting and measures of criminal involvement. An emerging group of scholars, however, has drawn attention to the methodological limitations-mainly genetic confounding-of the parental socialization literature..
>The results revealed very little evidence of parental socialization effects on criminal behavior before controlling for genetic confounding and no evidence of parental socialization effects on criminal involvement after controlling for genetic confounding.

Of course, you can lose your job, or at best all your funding, for making the mistake of 'controlling for genetic confounding', so you can see researchers conveniently choose to explain their way around it. But how useful is that to you?

IQ is very, very important. Anyone who recognizes that has an edge on anyone who denies it. Soros' investment philosophy is all about arbitrating the distance between the collective fantasy people believe in and reality itself.
