I don’t know about that. there has been a huge slew of foreigners coming in and buying up all their affordable land and housing to make AirBnBs. if that were happening in my area I’d hate foreigners too. especially because most are likely not making any effort to fit in with the community and are just creating wealthy expat enclaves taking advantage of the low yen value.

also if comparing xenophobia have you seen -gestures to the rest of the entire world-

Tbf they probably have good reason.

How do I do that? Just google “local accountants”? How do I find one that will be more targeted to individuals rather than businesses?

Depending on how much you saved you could maybe hit FIRE. otherwise if you’re just starting you might be able to hit FI but probably not the retire early part depending on your expenses.

I know some people that had lucrative jobs that lost them and had to go working part time at Office Depot though so maybe you’re like them and have a ton saved.

it’s a wonder shit like this happens and they still get elected as senators. i have zero faith in the American populace at this point and can only hope my state secedes.

This is what Americans voted for (or failed to vote against).

I’m happy they’re scared.

Use it to print cheap plastic knick knacks with generic farmhouse graphics generated by AI to sell to your unsuspecting followers. No joke there was a YouTuber who made a video about doing exactly this.

How old are you?

Thanks for your candid response!

However it does confirm that I will never see these numbers in my lifetime.

A few Qs because I hate myself:

• what is your base salary?
• what is your pay currently?
• do you amend your base salary calculations when you get a raise?
• also what do you do that gives you a 20% raise every year?

What if you’re late 30s and not mid-20s? lol. jk I know I’m fucked.

I’m often asked to give money to people probably making quite a bit more than me when they have babies and such. Kind of feels like “forced donation”.

I know having a new baby will incur a lot more expenses but still.
