yeah bro because Japan is a comparatively poor country, you are arbitraging your wealth from a richer country lmao

try actually having a job in Japan, or converting all your money to Yens. PewDiePie actually cried when he moved because he converted his money to yens and was getting printed into poverty xD

learn the difference between inflation and being an expat maybe

Are you paid in dollars or yen? The yen lost like 50% to the dollar in just the past 3 years. I was in Tokyo in 2016, and shit was expensive. Right now everything is laughably cheap if your wealth/salary is in euros or dollars.

Seems like you don't know how inflation works.

I i know how it works fine. Inflation in Japan has been 1-3% for the past 3 years. Costs have barely gone up despite the depreciation and i have already noticed a lot of it going back down again already in the past months. Japanese consumers and such have not suffered like people in the UK/Europe/US over inflation in the past 4 years.

It might surprise YOU to learn something. The Japanese economy was built to handle the depreciation of the Yen as of late without imploding unlike elsewhere.

It is true.
Average income in Tokyo is say, ¥4.5mm.
However you can easily rent a family home 40mins commute out from central for ¥100k a month.

For London? You spend 65% of your salary to share a house with 4-5 strangers, all amenities but just a room of your own for 40mins out lol.

You’re a fucking idiot lol.
Currency devaluation does not automatically = inflation. Jesus christ man.
The yen has fluctuated a lot over past decades and in the past when closer to 130jpy to USD after devaluation from a previous 80jpy to USD the japanese economy was deep in deflation still anyway.

Now look up real estate inflation adjusted to wages or any metric people give a fuck about and compare it to Japan. The US has 0.5% rental vacancy in most cities, whereas Japan's declining population makes housing much more affordable. I swear, the kikes keep you retarded muttgolem cattle on a leash too easy. Just gotta dangle a chart with a line going up and you think that's a strong economy

You can eat pretty good in Prague or Bangkok or similar second or third-rate place for money which gets you average food in Japan.

And by pretty good I mean splurging at high-tier restaurants, not street food or similar backpacking memes.

100 or 150 US bucks gets you couple above-average hamburgers in Japan.
