If $1 buys you >1 unit of another currency, then it typically means that the dollar is stronger and will go further in the country where that currency is used.

However, this is a pretty general rule, and it doesn't mean much in the context of certain countries. Japan is a good example of an exception--so is Iceland, where 1 USD:130 IKR. On the flip side, you have places like Bahrain and Kuwait, where the dollar is worth less than 1/3rd of BHD/KWD--but that doesn't mean that you have to spend $3 USD in Bahrain or Kuwait to get a $1 USD-equivalent basket of goods in BHD or KWD. That's just how their currency is pegged.

>>199303680
Japan took on a lot of debt with negative interest rates, now that interest rates had to rise due to inflation the market is worried that they won't be able to pay it off.

Germany and France both handled it well so I don't see why it would've fucked up Japan as hard as the 1990s did. IIRC the US trade deficit with Japan wasn't even successfully lowered by the accords and it mostly affected Western European markets.

And it's less than that too. The average is very top heavy. If you look at the median it's less. But you should really be looking at what you can buy with that money in the country, not a flat amount.

You're looking at "average". Average is pumped up by top earners. You have billionaires bringing the "average" number up.

What you should be looking at is "median", which is what the most common salary is, which is 3.6M yen, or about $22,000 USD or €20,500.

But aside from importing luxury shit how does this actually impact people's lives? Compared to America food is cheaper, rents are cheaper, healthcare is cheaper, and people don't really have much of a need for a car. Cities are way nicer than American cities. It's safe here and don't have to fear walking around at night. Streets are way more walkable. There's convenience stores around every block. Now it is better than America? I don't know. But there are definitely plenty of advantages of being here that America doesn't have. And if you put it in perspective, Japan is still one of the richest countries on this planet.

Shit like this doesn't matter if you're 1) Rich already 2) Have parents to support you 3) Don't care about saving money.

If you're a weeb, the idea of "living in Japan" is all there is to it. You live meagerly, and once your time is up as an English teacher in Japan, that's all you'll have on your CV. These people don't really think about the future of upward mobility.
>>
>>199312292
>Compared to America food is cheaper, rents are cheaper, healthcare is cheaper,
American's make way more money. It's natural things are more expensive there but at the end of the day they have more disposable income.
>It's safe here and don't have to fear walking around at night. Streets are way more walkable. There's convenience stores around every block.
We are talking about economy.
>And if you put it in perspective, Japan is still one of the richest countries on this planet.
Not really. Japan's gdp per capita will probably fall below 30k this year. Japan will be poorer than Eastern European countries and far below any western country.
>>
>>199312465
Nah, the hardest part is if you want to return to your country if you come from somewhere like America. If you have a decent wage in Japan living in the country is pretty comfortable. Now the most optimal way of going about it is to somehow be paid in USD then go fuck off to somewhere in Asia. But easier said than done.

Japanese food, not only tastier, but also healthier than Euro slop. Japanese life expectancy is longer than Europeans. This is all because Japanese regularly take Omega-3 (EPA/DHA) from raw fish consumption.

>Not really. Japan's gdp per capita will probably fall below 30k this year. Japan will be poorer than Eastern European countries and far below any western country
Japan imports 65% of their food and 95% of their energy, so shit is going to hit them hard this year and the next. And given that the yen will keep falling in value, the belt will just continue tightening.

Most people do the JET program when they're young and most only do it for 2-3 years. Not like most people make a career out of it. It's a fine experience and it's not like you have to only do that for the rest of your life. Like I met a woman who graduated college, did the JET program, lived in Aomori for three years, then moved to Macau where she got married. She seemed pretty happy about her life. Was decently smart too.

Almost like being a woman is extremely easy. It doesn't matter if you don't have a future career path, because you can just get married and have your husband take care of you, especially in the casino of the world.

It's also not like you have to retire here. You can live here for a few years to experience it then just go home. Learning a new language and living in a foreign country are good life experiences I think.

Sounds like jealousy to me. To bad you never had the courage to try anything with your life.

I mean yeah it's richer than africa, philippines, indonesia etc. I didn't think you were bragging about that lmao. Your definition is just more broad I guess.

The Earth's population is around 8 billion. If you added up the populations of America and the European Union you still wouldn't get even get to 1 billion. So even if all the people living inside those countries had a better quality of life than the people in Japan (which is highly debatable), Japan would still be better off than 7/8 of the world's population. I don't think Japan's goal should be to emulate the West. Especially considering all those countries are on the decline. I like Japan the way it the way it is.

know a guy who bought a house in japan like 2 years ago. He was bragging that he bought it dirt cheap because of the yen inflation. Because of this his property has lost so much value. Now if he tried to sell it he's going to attain losses lmfao.
Japan is unnironically done if USA doesnt interfere and stop this massive inflation. Also, this is sad to admit but Euro will follow the Yen trend real soon. I think we will have a WWIII admit ourselves because of the crashing economies.

I think the US is actually one of the best countries positioned for the future. It doesn't have the bureaucracy, politics, and centralization of the EU. Doesn't have a demographic problem. America gets more skilled migration, much of the migration that comes to Europe is low-skilled, from African and the Middle East. Asian migration particularly is supposed to skyrocket. Federal government isn't as powerful, so if some states fail people can go elsewhere. Doesn't have as much of a welfare state that is going to turn state finances unsustainable. Dollar will continue to be decently strong. America is large and still has lots of room to grow. The dollar is keeping its own against other currencies right now, even if inflation is up. The constitution of the United States is very solid, even if the people running it aren't the brightest. Unironically, I'm optimistic of the America's future.
>>
>>199314899
Yeah, you can already see the seeds planted. Japan is going to look a lot more like Europe. But a lot of migration to Japan will be from surrounding Asian countries, so migration isn't going to be as bad as it is in France or England.

Do you plan to go and retire in Asia or stay in America? But exactly what difference does it make if you get to that stage of your life at 29 or 33 exactly? And I think a majority of people aren't going to be making 105k in their lifetimes, even if they are American.

Japan is demanding the traitorous Kishida resign every day. Biden's puppet, Kishida, is unironically the cause of Japan's current troubles. In addition, Biden and Kishida are slowly creating the conditions for the far right to grow in Japan and the best evidence is the Rahm Emanuel, US Ambassador to Japan, who won't shut up about LGBT propaganda every day on his Twitter account and bizarrely participating in LGBT parades and rallies. This is considered very impolite and rude behavior by ambassadors to foreign countries. After all, you don't see Japanese ambassadors in America protesting against gun rights.

America is only good for blacks and Mexicans. You are a naive Japanese who is unable to see the bamboo ceiling / glass ceiling that Asians in America experience. For example, Asians are the last to get promoted to managerial positions over blacks, whites, and other minorities because Asians are considered too quiet and not aggressive enough at kissing up to the boss. Asians also have a more difficult time getting accepted to famous colleges. Asians are also generally invisible in local and national politics.

Wake up to reality, Japanese immigrant. There is a reason why you Japanese are never seen outside California and Hawaii because deep down inside, you Japanese are seen as outsiders by the other 48 states that make up the USA. Not only that but once you start getting old and sick, you will inevitably fly back home to Japan to enjoy your great, cheap and fast Japanese healthcare as evidenced by all the elderly Japanese Canadians who get their yearly health checkup in Japan rather than Canada. Also, even Japanese millionaires like Ryuichi Sakamoto moved back to Japan for cancer treatment even after living 30 years in New York. Ryuichi Sakamoto would have lost all his family wealth if he decided to remain in America for cancer treatment.

At the end of the day, the final resting place for the majority of Japanese expats will be their homeland, Japan. Your descendants will be cleaning your grave during every Obon holiday inside Japan and not outside Japan.
