This. But hell, forget about a career that may bring no income in a few years, do what you want to do so you don't hate waking up every morning.

You're on the right track though: graduate from college. While you still have some time on your hands, look into Japanese exchange programs. JET's amazing, but there are many others. If you can get your foot in the door, and get a few contacts while you're over there, it'll help you in landing a job when you want to spend some more time working over there.

And while you're young now, snag a job, and save as much money as you can. The more you have, the easier the initial transition will be for you, especially if you look at where the economy's at right now.
