[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a royal family member, Princess Mako was receiving $27K/ year from the birth to 19 years old, then $80K/year from 20 years old until her marriage. So even though she turned down $1.4 million dowry, she should have the saving close to the same amount from all those years payments. They will need a helping hand from wealthy people in Japan and abroad and I hope they will get it. They are going to live in Manhattan. How much will her saving and Mr. Komuro’s salary as a law clerk (now that he failed his first try at NY bar exam) sustain their ideal lifestyle? After all, they are both immigrants here in the US and I think that’s one of the major differences from Meghan and Harry. Meghan came back to her own country, and she had her own career here before marrying Harry. On the other hand, Mr. Komuro has work experience for just a few years in Japan and mostly he was a student up until now. Many Japanese must be feeling frustrated under Covid economy and they will not be happy if somehow Princess Mako’s father ended up helping the couple through taxpayer’s money. [/quote] Mako and Komuro should not receive any taxpayer money and become successful on their own, just to really show it to Japan. I have every confidence that they'll be able to do it. No doubt it'll still result in a great gnashing of many teeth, as was the case with Meghan and Harry. What an exquisite mirror to each other, and that their exits both happened at approximately the same time, half a world away; I'm sure there will be a documentary or show or movie someday that touches on both couples' experiences.[/quote]
