[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But the tradeoff is employment, housing, transportation, schooling, taxes, language, and a whole host of other factors that collectively don't really make it a good tradeoff to uproot yourself (and family) and move....all bc you feel safer and a mole removal cost 8500 yen?[/quote] Of course it’s really personal and people’s motivations for settling in different countries vary but I’m laughing that anyone would think that the US has better transportation than Japan. I miss the Japanese rail system almost daily, never mind my cheap apartment and reasonably priced food. Taxes were also cheaper. That being said I’m raising my kids in the states because I’m too American to have good vibes about the Japanese educational system and also my company wouldn’t sponsor my visa to live in Japan. There are pros and cons for sure.[/quote]
