wtf does that even mean.

You know what kings have? Money and influence. if you didn't before, you aren't going to find them on a corner of a street in yokohama

Pick a poorer country to toss money around in. Better mileage for your dollar

No, of course not.

You will be ostracized and end up as a shut-in yet again. You would need (1) a high-paying job (preferably remote work for a US-based company), (2) good looks, (3) serious respect for the language and culture before the locals would even consider looking at you without disdain.

If you're serious, you should find a 4-year Japanese program at a university and apply yourself as best as possible. I won't do it because it seems like their culture isn't keen on disabled folks, etc.

go check out chibi, that guy who was told "i'd really prefer it if you'd shut up" he did just that and he's an alcoholic now

i lived in asia for a while and you pretty quickly find out that anyone white who isn't an employed professional proficient in the language is either a sexpest, a lost soul or passing through. I left pretty quickly, as did anyone with social skills and ambition because they know their worth, all that remains are sad lonely people who are treated like shit by a culture hostile to them and that will never accept them truly even if they learn the language and integrate. every white person, especially american, that i met who was there for more than 2 years were so pathetic because they couldn't make it back home and moved there thinking they'd be better off when in reality they are now even lower socially. sure you get desperate asian women who want a white bf for money or clout but they are seen as damaged goods and most of the time they are, they'll jump between white guys at a whim knowing how desperate most of them are. the money also doesn't go very far anymore in japan, you'd be better off in thailand or vietnam if money is a concern for you but they'd hate you even more there. the time, energy and money you spend emigrating would be better spent on learning new skills, hobbies or forcing yourself to develop as a person back home and atleast if it doesn't work out you aren't stuck on the other side of the earth surrounded by people who hate you

Will an ignorant NEET loser be a winner in a country where he doesn't even know the language? Gee, that's a hard question

>>35073837
Move to Africa loser.

You do not know how fucked Japan is.
>>35073837
Yes. Pretty much.

>>35073837
bait?

>>35073837
Yes and no.
I spent a year there and am looking to go back.
Your money goes further than it does in the States and that has a few advantages.
The are pretty friendly to you (at least initially).
Long term though... eh, that's where it gets dodgy. Some people really like it, build a life, feel like they fit in well, and make it work. Others have the exact opposite feeling and go home feeling rejected. If it's something you want to do, I would definitely try to learn the language. At least enough to order food in a restaurant and ask for directions to the toilet. My best piece of advice would be to have a 1-5 year plan for what you want to do and at least enough money for a plane ticket home if things go south.

Lol, no. Terrible idea. US college foreign language programs are a waste of money, and only get you to intermediate level. It's cheaper to go to a language school in Japan, and they get you to business level in 2 years instead of wasting your time on stupid unrelated freshman classes.

>>35073837
No, if you're a lazy shit here, you're going to be even more of a lazy shit there because now you've just made your life more difficult.

Meanwhile, every Jalpesh, Sangeeta and Tyrone are there living it up, not giving a shit.

Japan fell for the fiat currency inflation & let's fix it by importing poor people meme.

Which countries were you living in?

You mentioned three groups, the sex pest, the lost soul, and the traveler. Were there any patterns in their age or lifestyle? Like were the travelers, all ages and fairly normal, and the lost souls dealing with relationship issues back home?

When I lived in Taiwan for two months, I spoke to no one, and I was mentally broken from a breakup and other family stuff. I'd just go for walks, train rides, sit in cafes on my laptop and down one milk latte after another after another after another, reading philosophy, gym, and avoid all tourist traps.

I am extremely isolated in my day-to-day living in Canada too because I work from home and have zero friends. And that also contributed to taking on a lost soul persona, but I'm curious how you define it

Why did you move there?

>>35080668
theyre not really living it up desu, i was just there for a long while and all of them look miserable as fuck. all of the foreigners have shit jobs with shit hours and they have no friends other than other Jalpeshes, and they usually dont even like the other Jalpeshes so they just end up being miserable and alone.

at least its safe and clean unlike india tho
