8:38 That's actually how my mom taught me about the "salary you should be making" a month as in when you're 20, 20mann($2,000), when you're 40, 40mann($4,000). It sometimes motivated me to set a certain achievement, but sometimes it depressed me when I was not making that.

it also de[ends where you live though. I only make like $2500 a month (im 26) but im richer than most because I earn that amount in the on of the cheapest countries in the world, so I save like 70% of my salary every month, and that includes having a nice villa (with private pool) and eating out at restraunts 3 times a day

FYI, the video uses an incorrect exchange rate of 1USD ≈ 100JPY instead of 1USD ≈ 130JPY, so basically if someone is making 200,000Yen per month, it would be equal to about 1500$ and not 2000$. It's kinda a big difference here so I think it's worth mentioning.

Recruitment consultant is pretty common here in Japan among foreigner especially English speaker. Most of the English speakers that come to Japan, they don't speak any Japanese at all and don't bother to learn. So their first opt is to be an English teacher or an ALT. After they have worked for a few years as a teacher and decided to quit, they can't find any jobs because they don't speak any Japanese. So they can't find any other jobs but a recruiting consultant. Recruiting company like Robert Walters, Michael Page and many, they don't require you speak Japanese. Therefore you will find so many Ex-English teacher or ALT if you work in those company. And the turnover rate is extremely high, so the recruiting companies always hiring.
I like how there’s such a broad range of people living in Japan and you seem to find a lot of foreigners in your vids which is dope too cos I thought there wouldn’t be that many commonly just around

There's not really, that's just in Tokyo. If you go literally anywhere else, you won't see foreigners. Tokyo and the rest of Japan feel like two different countries. That would be like going to New York City and being like, "Wow, all of the US is exactly like New York City"

That's actually reaaaally common when it comes to Law/International relations/Politics from my experience, in various EU countries ...
When I first moved to Japan my starting salary as a Tax Consultant was 3.2M YEN per year, roughly 25K USD. While it was not a lot compared to a starting salary in the US, ironically per month I had more money saved than I would in the US. My rent was about 400$ per month compared to the US where average rent is between $1500 ~ 1800. After I left Japan, my salary went to 90 ~ 100K in the US. Roughly 12M YEN. u Unfortunately, after taxes and rent it's basically a 60K salary. One thing they didn't point out in the video is although people don't get paid a lot. Food, entertainment, rent is a lot more affordable than in the US. Would rather be living in Japan tbh.

I have a question about the salary part. Is this before taxes or after taxes? 🤔
@marie-michellefortier2993
Жыл бұрын
People in Japan usually state their salary before taxes and all (insurances, national pension, etc.), so their net salary is way less than that, especially after all their monthly expenses (rent, utilities and phone+internet bills, food, transit fees, etc.).That's from experience that I'm saying that (6th year working in Japan).
Two men at 4:00. Their salaries seem low. Japanese companies have summer and winter bonuses. Generally, bonuses are equivalent to three months of salary. If these bonuses are taken into account, the monthly salary would be much higher.

You can't compare the expenses of a trip to the expenses of living there. 3K is actually a pretty good salary. I come from Israel which is waaay more expensive than Japan (if it wasn't for the flight, Japan would be a really cheap destination) and people make do with much lower salaries, somehow.

I mean, how much can you eat or go out? So that's a total of 2,400 USD for a pretty decent life, no? If you have a car, buy stuff, go out alot then you can add the other 600$ and there you have a 3,000$ expenses for a pretty good month. Or you can save the 600$ for later. And the prices in Israel are similar to those of Switzerland. So in most countries (France, for example. Even Paris) this amount can be really good! Then again, it depends on your lifestyle.
