Consider this though, in one year in the USA you made 4 years worth of one year teaching Japanese? What if you were to work 5 years in the USA and save as much as possible (live like a pauper almost lol). That would equate to 10-15 years worth of money to live comfortably in Japan, during those 10-15 years you can easily gain futher qualifications, start out in a new career and work you way up the ladder etc. All the while never haveing to worry about your income. Just food for thought.

Both your posts are well worded. I agree with you on this, because one can retire early or take afew years, etc.. But some people just aren't concerned or motivated so much by financial gains.
