    When you move from the US you lose like half your salary for an equivalent position (more now cause of the relative power of the dollar to the yen).

    The people that live like kings are the ones that are in Japan at the behest of American companies on American salaries living at like a third of their American costs.

      This is true in Europe too. Salaries in the US are just stupid high in general. They need to be because the US has shit for social services, which must be paid out of pocket.

      Case and point: childcare.
