Thanks for telling me that. I was pretty certain that the Japanese system was different, and now I know. Now all I have to do is convince my friends.

Which unfortunately for me, is easier said than done. One of them freaks out when it comes to money and one of my friends even said that once we get a house that is the one we are sticking with. So, basicly I have one friend down and four more to go. So thanks again for the tip. Hopefully the money issues won't be a problem because two people are going to be doctors, one a writer/translator, one a linguist/writer/translator, and hopefully I can find some person to back me up in my work as an Archaeologist. So, I hope the money won't be an issue. So I think I am going to look up building expenses and that now. Sorry for rambling because you are probably not interested in this at all. So sorry and thanks.
