Well, that all depends on how frivolous you are

Personally, I make it in Osaka on a little less than ¥100,000 per month. But I'm frugal as heck; I cook a lot of my own meals (love cooking), and my rent plus utilities is usually under ¥50,000. But I can see how it would get tight.

You aspiring teachers just need to hold back from buying all the goodies as soon as your paycheck lands in your pocket! Though I'm one to talk... I have NO REGRETS about buying that Lumix camera which took out most of a month's pay! None! Hahaha!
