Same problem everywhere. Costs go up wages stay the same.
An oversimplification of the problem but I feel it’s accurate.
到处都有同样的问题。成本上涨，工资保持不变。
虽然这个问题被过度简单化了，但我觉得它是准确的。

People in Japan are worried about weak yen, but you can still live comfortably in Tokyo with 40man and rent has hardly raised here, but I visited the states last year and it seems like almost everything has doubled. People say in most major city's even 80,000 USD is hard to live off of. So I'm not sure if just comparing a yen vs dollar exchange rate is the best way to judge your economy. It's more about the ratio between an average income vs the needed income to live comfortably.
日本人担心日元贬值，但你依然可以用40万日元在东京过得很舒适，这里的租金几乎没有上涨。我去年去了美国，感觉几乎所有东西的价格都翻倍了。有人说在大多数大城市，即使是80,000美元也很难过得下去。所以我不确定仅仅比较日元和美元的汇率是不是评判经济的最佳方式，更重要的是平均收入与生活所需收入的比率。

It is good to see older folks in the video, who are usually sorely lacking in your videos. Since Japan is a society of elders, including them in all your videos makes sense.
很高兴看到视频中的老年人，你们的视频中通常很少出现老年人。既然日本是一个老龄化社会，所以你们的视频中都包括老年人是合情合理的。

Japanese for years thought because the country's GDP was #2 they were rich when in fact, they were stagnant. Everyone else got rich and now Japan is in a dire situation of foreign asset ownership, low wages, massive government debt and terminal population decline.
多年来，日本人认为因为国家的GDP排名第二，所以他们很富裕，但实际上，他们处于停滞状态。其他所有人都变得富有，而现在日本正处于外资持股、工资低、政府债务高企和人口急剧下降的困境中。

I see a lot of these Japanese decline in videos but Japan still looks like such a nice place to live. Nice people, safe, healthy and clean environment, modern, convenient, efficient, etc.
我看到很多关于日本衰退的视频，但日本看起来仍然是一个很适合居住的地方。这里的人友好、安全、环境健康而清洁、现代、便利、高效等等。

I m Chinese and I feel all East Asian countries especially Japan, China , South Korea, are all going towards the same situation : aging population and low birth rates. And Crash of Real Estate market. Now the birth rate of China is even lower than Japan how crazy is that.
我来自中国，我觉得所有东亚国家，尤其是日本、中国、韩国，都面临着相似的情况：人口老龄化和低出生率，以及房地产市场崩溃。现在中国的出生率甚至低于日本，这真是太疯狂了。

I lived in Japan 20 years ago (for a year) and have been visitng every few years since then. I love the country, however nothing has changed for the better with regards to the gerontocracy running the country. The weak yen should spur a focus on exports, put upwards pressure on wages - but I doubt that will happen for cultural and inflexible policy reasons.. Thanks Takashi for your great video and i hope more Japanese are as open-minded and informed as you. (Currently on vacation inTokyo
我20年前曾在日本生活了一年，之后每隔几年就会来一次。我喜欢这个国家，但在老人政治掌控国家方面，似乎没有什么好转。弱势日元应该促使人们更加关注出口，并对工资产生上行压力，但由于文化和僵化的政策原因，我怀疑这会发生。感谢高桥提供的精彩视频，希望更多日本人像你一样开放和有见识。（目前正在东京度假）

Lots of similarities to what I hear about life here in America. During COVID a lot of people from the wealthier coastal areas moved inland to cities with lower costs of living and you can feel it. Real estate prices are up and hotel prices are up. With remote work it seems like moving to places with lower costs of living really has become a global movement. I think with the right taxes and cultural policies new people moving in with more money can ultimately be a good thing for a city, but without the right policies I think it can leave locals worse off than before. It'll be interesting to see how Japan tackles this situation. Great interviews as always!
这跟我听到的美国生活情况有很多相似之处。在疫情期间，很多来自富裕沿海地区的人搬到了生活成本较低的内陆城市，你能明显感受到这一点。房地产价格上涨，酒店价格上涨。随着远程工作的普及，搬到生活成本较低的地方似乎已经成为了一种全球趋势。我认为，如果有合适的税收和文化政策，更多有钱的新居民进入城市，最终可能会对城市产生积极影响，但如果没有合适的政策，可能会让本地居民的处境比以前更糟。看看日本如何应对这个情况会很有意思。像往常一样，精彩的访谈！

I do agree some of the foreigners were incredibly rude in public and I feel very embarrassed to watch while I was in Japan. I , as a foreigner, hopefully have tried my best to follow the rules and culture and not to be rude
我确实同意，有些外国人在公共场合非常粗鲁，我在日本时看到这一点感到非常尴尬。作为一个外国人，我希望自己尽力遵守规则和文化，不做出粗鲁的行为。

When the guy mentioned you could get an entire meal – including dessert and side dishes – for just $7, I was blown away. These days, you can hardly get a cup of coffee and dessert for under $10 near copenhagen
当那个人提到你可以花7美元就吃到一整顿饭——包括甜点和配菜时，我简直惊呆了。现在，在哥本哈根附近，想买一杯咖啡和甜点都难以低于10美元。

Every single country is going through this level of insane inflation. Some worse than others. But everyone agrees that salaries are to low to survive in most countries these days.
每个国家都在经历这种疯狂的通货膨胀，有些国家的情况比其他国家更严重。但每个人都同意，如今大多数国家的工资太低，无法维持生计。

I had same exact experience when arriving in Vietnam for business (even in this year), and then same exact experience from Vietnam to Haneda seeing bright lights, but very quiet. It caught my attention when I heard this interview segment. I'm from Northern California, but work for Korean Company, So I travel a lot from SFO, ICN, HAN, HND back to SFO. Love your channel, keep up the great work TAKASHii...!!
我在今年去越南出差时也有过同样的体验，之后从越南飞到羽田机场时，也看到明亮的灯光，但却非常安静。当我听到这段采访时，它引起了我的注意。我来自北加州，但为一家韩国公司工作，所以我经常从旧金山（SFO）、仁川（ICN）、河内（HAN）、羽田（HND）往返旧金山。喜欢你的频道，继续保持出色的工作，Takashii...!!

I must comment on the really excellent EDITING in this vid. Alas, I would love to have retired in Japan having lived there some decades ago, but it is just too expensive so I ended up in a different part of the world but still very happy.
我必须评论一下这段视频的编辑非常优秀。唉，我曾经住在日本很多年，曾经想在那里退休，但日本实在太贵了，所以我最终选择了世界上另一个地方，但仍然非常幸福。

Great interview. Keep it up Takashii. It highlights the critical issue of wages staying stagnant for decades. Yes, every time I visit Japan, I’m surprised by how cheap everything is, including food, clothes, etc.
很棒的采访，继续加油，Takashii。它突出了一个关键问题，那就是工资在几十年里一直停滞不前。是的，每次我去日本，我都会对那里的物价感到惊讶，食物、衣服等都非常便宜。

I think that order and safety are much more important than wealth because that is happiness that money can't buy.
Thank you for such honest interviews I agree with previous comments that it keeps getting better! It is such a special thing to be able to listen to people from another side of the world as if you are talking to them in real life. This is really a special privilege of the 21st century.
我认为秩序和安全比财富更重要，因为那才是金钱买不到的幸福。感谢你们如此诚实的采访，我同意之前的评论，节目的质量越来越好！能够像与人面对面交流一样听到来自世界另一端的人的声音，真的是21世纪的一个特殊特权。

As an American, I knew of Japan’s economic hard times but I don’t have a grim view of Japan or its future. I do not nor do I think most people hold the view that Japan is a poor country. They are just having hard times. I sympathize with the Japanese people. Thanks for the video- Also, people travel to Japan because they love Japan and Japanese people.

7:14 In Norway, there is no age limit for public education being free; it is free for life. You can pursue as many degrees as you want. However, this might change in the coming years. I have a premonition that you will have to start paying if you study at the same or a lower level than a degree you already hold—for example, pursuing a second bachelor’s degree after completing one, or obtaining a second master’s degree.
7:14 在挪威，公共教育是终身免费的，没有年龄限制。你可以追求尽可能多的学位。然而，这种情况在未来几年可能会发生变化。我有预感，如果你攻读的学位与之前获得的学位相同或更低，你可能需要开始支付费用——比如，在获得一个学士学位后，继续攻读第二个学士学位，或者获得第二个硕士学位。

I'm currently in Japan on a long vacation of 3 months. I came to see if I would like to live here, before pulling the trigger. I work remotely for a company in Europe, so the time is a bit inconvenient sometimes, but overall I have the whole first half of the day for myself. Prices are also great if you earn in Euros, but it's only cheaper then expensive countries. In general I spend here almost the same I do when I'm in Belgium.
我目前在日本度假，已经有三个月了。我来这里看看自己是否喜欢生活在这里，再决定是否定居。我为一家欧洲公司远程工作，所以有时候时差有点不方便，但总体来说，我有整整一天的前半部分是属于自己的。如果你赚的是欧元，这里的物价也很划算，但相比昂贵的国家也只是便宜一些。总体来说，我在这里的花费几乎和在比利时差不多。

I've been to many places before, and I would say Tokyo is my 2nd most favourite place to live. Everything is really convenient. I have Japanese background, so I know a bit of the language, which is a major thing for living in Japan. I'm used to live on bigger apartments, and the size of most houses in Tokyo are extremely small. I decided not to stay long-term here since for me, Kyiv is still the best place to live.
我之前去过很多地方，我会说东京是我第二喜欢的居住地。一切都非常方便。我有日本背景，所以我懂一些日语，这对于在日本生活非常重要。我习惯住在较大的公寓，而东京大多数房子的大小非常小。我决定不在这里长期居住，因为对我来说，基辅仍然是最适合居住的地方。

In general, I do agree that the vibes here are not comparable with the "booming" places in growing economies, but Japan has so much to offer with safety and quality. Would pick Tokyo any day compared to any other city besides Kyiv. I would also say, living in the country-side can also be extremely enjoyable, compared to Tokyo.
总的来说，我确实同意这里的氛围无法与快速发展的经济体中的“繁荣”城市相比，但日本在安全性和质量方面有很多值得提供的东西。除了基辅之外，我随时都会选择东京，而不是其他任何城市。我还想说，住在乡村相比东京也能非常享受生活。

Great discussion and I love the mix of people. So informative. Also the advice for foreigners to work remotely in Japan is a great way to see if Japan suits well without burning bridges etc. Thanks!
很棒的讨论，我喜欢这里的多元化人群，信息量很大。同时，给外国人远程工作在日本的建议也是一个很好的方式，可以看看日本是否适合自己，而又不会让自己与其他地方的联系断绝等。谢谢！

I've been to Japan twice. The weak yen was not any reason I visited it was the culture food and scenery. Regardless if the yen wasn't weak I'd still visit as many times as I can I'm my lifetime
我去过日本两次。日元贬值并不是我去日本的原因，主要是文化、美食和风景。无论日元是否贬值，我都会在一生中尽可能多次去日本。

Indeed what the elderly man said is true - on my first trip to Japan in the 1990s, it was so expensive for me coming from Singapore .. exchange rate was ¥1000=SGD18, now it's SGD8.71. You can get a good meal in a mall restaurant for ¥1500 whereas in Sg, it's easily double. Thankfully, we have hawker centres in Sg. I've been going Japan every year for the past few years and going again in 2025. Hotels are very expensive though.
If the Japanese think they're overrun by tourists, imagine being in sg where the population is 3.5 million but the number of tourists is 12mil.
的确，那个老人说得对——我第一次去日本是在1990年代，从新加坡过去的时候，感觉非常贵……那时候的汇率是 ¥1000 = SGD18，现在是 SGD8.71。在商场的餐厅里，你可以花 ¥1500 吃一顿不错的饭，而在新加坡，差不多要双倍的价格。幸好，我们在新加坡有小贩中心。我这几年每年都会去日本，2025年也计划再去。酒店确实非常贵。
如果日本人觉得他们被游客淹没了，试想一下在新加坡的情况，人口是350万，但游客数量是1200万。
Indeed what the elderly man said is true - on my first trip to Japan in the 1990s, it was so expensive for me coming from Singapore .. exchange rate was ¥1000=SGD18, now it's SGD8.71. You can get a good meal in a mall restaurant for ¥1500 whereas in Sg, it's easily double. Thankfully, we have hawker centres in Sg. I've been going Japan every year for the past few years and going again in 2025. Hotels are very expensive though.

My family just came back from a two week vacation in Japan. It was great! Everyone is polite, everywhere is clean and safe. Yes, it’s more affordable due to the exchange rate. I believe Japan economy will continue growing steadily and avoid the bubbles. I like your videos so much which provide me with another channel to learn about Japan. Thank you
我家刚从日本度假回来，待了两周，真的很棒！每个人都很有礼貌，哪里都很干净和安全。是的，汇率让消费更实惠了。我相信日本的经济会继续稳步增长，避免泡沫。我很喜欢你的影片，它为我提供了另一个了解日本的渠道。谢谢！

Great video, thank you… I recently visited Japan, and had an amazing trip, though due to the language barrier it was difficult to connect with anyone other than in a customer service context. It is good to get a sense of what some of the average people are feeling.
很棒的视频，谢谢…我最近去过日本，度过了一个非常棒的旅行，虽然由于语言障碍，除了在服务行业的互动外，很难与其他人建立联系。了解一些普通人们的感受，真的很不错。

Excellent interview ， I'm Australian with a Japanese wife, she has lived with me here in Australia for 35 years but as we get older, she wants to live back in Japan because the medical system is much better in Japan. I also would love the opportunity to live in Japan as her spouse but concerned if I set up my retired life in Japan, if something happened to my wife and she dies, then I could be forced to go back to Australia. Also, the amount of paperwork and stuff at all levels of Government in Japan is intense so if I survived my wife who has heart condition, I don't think I could survive in Japan on my own as a retired person. I do have Australian friends living in Japan as well but up in rural mountain locations. In 2 years time, I can get an Australian Government pension paid to me in Japan so it's very tempting.
非常棒的采访，我是澳大利亚人，和一位日本妻子结婚，她已经和我在澳大利亚生活了35年，但随着我们年纪渐长，她希望能回日本生活，因为那里的医疗系统比澳大利亚好。我也很想作为她的配偶有机会在日本生活，但我担心如果我在日本定居退休后，如果发生什么事情，妻子去世了，我可能会被迫回澳大利亚。另外，日本政府各个层级的文书工作非常繁琐，如果我幸存下来，而妻子又有心脏病，我不认为我能在日本独自生活。虽然我在日本也有一些住在偏远山区的澳大利亚朋友。两年后，我可以在日本领取澳大利亚政府的养老金，所以这个选择很有吸引力。

I have several conclusions after watching this video. First, I’m from the Eastern European bloc, and when I heard that Japanese people are considering working remotely for the USA while maintaining the Japanese cost of living, I felt that something is seriously amiss. In Eastern Europe, we’ve been doing this for many years, and it’s surprising to see Japan facing such decisions now. It’s really sad to hear that some people won’t even consider starting a family because of their weak salaries. This highlights how serious the economic struggles have become.
看完这个视频后，我得出几个结论。首先，我来自东欧，当我听到日本人考虑在维持日本生活成本的同时为美国远程工作时，我觉得有些不对劲。在东欧，我们已经做了很多年这种事情，看到日本现在面临这样的选择，真的很令人惊讶。听到一些人因为工资低而不考虑建立家庭，真是让人感到遗憾。这凸显了经济困境的严重性。

Another point I’d like to mention is how impressed I am by the lady at 18:30. She is incredibly sharp and well-informed about economics, leadership challenges, and possibly even the geopolitics of her region. On top of that, I have to say she is very beautiful. Congratz.
另一个我想提的点是，我对18:30那位女士的印象非常深刻。她对经济学、领导力挑战，甚至可能是她所在地区的地缘政治都有非常敏锐的见解。此外，我还得说，她非常漂亮。恭喜她。

I find it a bit odd when people say living comfortably is 'buying what you want whenever you want'
I'd say comfort when it comes to living in a house/apartment is more about having enough to live and knowing that you will be fine for weeks to come if things go by normally, buy quality not quantity just to stave off boredom, you should be careufl with money even if you don't have to look at the price of items.
I live in a very rich country and even here the situation is the same as in japan when it comes to costs and wages, it's a global phenomenon
我觉得当人们说“舒适的生活就是随时随地买自己想要的东西”时有点奇怪。我认为，住在房子或公寓里，舒适更多的是指有足够的资源生活，并且知道在一切正常的情况下，你接下来的几周都能过得不错。应该购买高质量的东西，而不是仅仅为了消磨无聊而买很多东西，即使你不需要看价格，也要小心花钱。我住在一个非常富裕的国家，甚至在这里，关于成本和工资的情况和日本差不多，这是一个全球现象。

Some things really reflect what I see as an Autumn-season traveller, and I'm in my 30's - I mountain trek a lot in Japan, the people that I observe passing by me are often middle-aged adults or old folks, and nary young adults of my age in sight. Although this is not the case if you go to more populated trails like Mt Takao, or Mt Oyama (in Kanagawa). I wonder if they "lack energy" in this case.
有些事情真的反映了我作为一个秋季旅行者的感受，我现在30多岁了——我经常在日本徒步旅行，我观察到路过的人往往是中年人或老年人，很少看到像我这个年龄段的年轻人。尽管如果去一些更有人气的登山步道，比如高尾山或神奈川的大山，情况就不一样了。我在想，难道他们在这种情况下“缺乏活力”吗？

I myself never got to see what the bustling era of shopping arcades in sub-urban towns feel like, but for the last few years I've visited, seeing entire streets of shophouses just closed and shuttered, really makes me worry about Japan's future and population woes.
我自己从来没有经历过日本郊区购物街区的繁华时代，但近几年来，每次去时，我看到整条街的商店都关门停业，真的让我对日本的未来和人口问题感到担忧。

I was stationed in Okinawa from 97-00. I always noticed the civilian people who worked on base drove nicer cars compared to the ones I saw off base. Now I understand why. Our starting pay for them was $12-$15(telecommunications) an hour, back then. Sad to hear that one kid making $8 per hour today and even sader, most all of them talking about just making enough to buy something to eat.
我曾在1997到2000年期间驻扎在冲绳。我总是注意到在基地工作的平民驾驶的车比我在基地外看到的要好。现在我明白为什么了。我们给他们的起薪是每小时12到15美元（通讯行业），那时如此。很遗憾听到今天有个孩子的时薪只有8美元，更让人难过的是，大多数人都在谈论只赚够钱买点吃的。
