I'm an engineer in Germany with good salary (100k€ per year), two kids and a wife that is half German, half Japanese but she maintained to keep her Japanese citizenship despite growing up here. By that we could easily move there. Kids speak both languages native level, I'm doing my best to learn every day. At first it was no option to me as I'm not too much of a weeb and I enjoy my 32 paid day offs and good salary. But now calculating, etc. The money difference wouldn't be that notable. Less payment in Japan but also less taxes. 32 day offs vs 20 day offs. And every year life in Germany becomes incredible more expensive. I'm paying double in the supermarket now compared to pre-covid. Gasoline is over 2€ per liter now despite 60% of it going to the state. They don't want you to drive/own a car while the trains totally suck. Now they won't to take away the family insurance, meaning my wife needs to pay 400-500€ per month herself. So even less savings. Traveling is impossible now, even cheapish italy got such a price increase over the years that we can't afford. But it's all kinda manageable if only there would be some positive perspectives into the future. But everything in Europe just goes downhill nonstop. Demographics are incredible fucked. Healthcare gets worse. Higher crimerates. etc. Life is just stressful. Now Japan isn't all green obviously, they have issues too. But at least their society is much more stable. They get their oil. You can hop on a 100€ plane flight to Okinawa and enjoy a tropical beach weekend to calm your nerves. Healthier food, better doctors, incredible nature, perfect infrastructure, good education, safe. On the other hand China with a potential Taiwan conflict just around the corner. And Northkorea/Russia too. What would you do?
there are too many germans in my neighborhood and they dont even try speaking japaneseplease stay out

>>220483198yep...this is the Russian in Okinawa
>>220482871Japan now feels like a second home; I know my way around Tokyo relatively well and have even built up a kind of circle of friends here. Who knows, maybe one day I'll finally leave and say sayonara doitsu
>>220483198why are you hate gemrany

>>220483637>butthurtbelter wont stop thinking about muh russiansmindbroken kek
>>220482871Anyway don't go to Tokyo, it's the place where all the worst parts of this country are concentrated>>220483588Did you know there are actually two Russian posters with the Japan flag? The Okinawa one is actually a good guy
>>220483637 *
>>220483873It's not about Russians, it's about a specific one, golembelter.
>>220484181>golembelterLOL
>>220482871>Moving to a country with a declining economy just to earn half of what you earn in your country(and every year the difference will grow bigger)Weebs are insane
>>220482871>half German, half JapaneseDu kannst nicht einfach sowas sagen und dann keine pics posten digga
Not worth itImmigration only makes sense if you move somewhere with a sensibly higher quality of life.
>>220485293Yeah both economies are kinda shit currently but I see Japan to be more stable and with higher promises in future. Like the chip development they are planing for Hokkaido. At least they are trying. Germans just sell everything straighthand to China. Payment is roughly 30% less in Japan but with less taxes and lower health insurance costs. Then add lower VAT, the freedom of not needing a car thanks to their infrastructure (saving thousands each year), free family healthcare which they are planing to take away in Germany, house prices are a 1/3rd compared to Germany, properties are cheaper incl taxes, much lower costs of groceries, cheaper vacation trips, etc. etc. All in all I would argue that we can safe more money living in Japan than in Germany. >>220485373Als ob ich jetzt hier Bilder von meiner Frau hochlad alder>>220485459>quality of life>same quality of life JAPAN
>>220482871Bro you're not going to leave Germany kekhttps://www.fr.de/politik/drastische-wehrpflicht-aenderung-maenner-die-deutschland-laenger-wollen-brauchen-genehmigung-zr-94248132.html
>>220485744>but I see Japan to be more stable and with higher promises in futureYeah you weebs are insane, that country is going to shit faster than any other country right now except iran and israel because of their little number, worst thing is that you are a foreigner so you will get the extra side of the shitcake.You obviously are a weeb so even if you are eating shit there you will be happy for a time so go ahead
>>220485744Nichtmal feetpics? :(
>>220482871>Now they won't to take away the family insurance, meaning my wife needs to pay 400-500€ per month herself.wut? my Japanese wife is also supposed to be on my health insurance plan and I have never heard about this
>>220485975Japan will be the first countries to getbrekt economically but it will be more stable socially
>>220482871How old are you kids? I think it could be really hard for them
>>220485975Yeah, thats your opinion>>220486222https://www.tagesschau.de/inland/debatte-gesundheitswesen-finanzierung-100.html>>2204863812 and 5. Older one has been there several times including a longer stay at their granparents. Not easy but I guess in the end they would appreciate it.
>>220487047>2 and 5Then I think you should go, better sooner than later. You're likely gonna be worse off financially but I think it's worth it
>>220487047yup my opinion
