I have been to japan, 8 times with my wife, however, I do hear a variety of opinions whether you can survive as a foreigner in japan without a BA degree, some advice comming from japanese friends and family which perhaps is slightly bias?.
I know I most likely not ever be in a position to work in the finance industry but possibly a small job in a shop or bar will suffice.
Appreciate peoples help and knowledge on the subject, I believe we are going to try moving out there with a estimated date of late nov earlier dec 2010. (Pehaps failing, but hopefully suceeding!)
Thanks

Do you know where it is you will move to?
Certainly there are people that do it every day (without the degree) and it sounds like you are flexible and ready for an adventure, so I am sure you will succeed. As you meet more people in Japan and make connections you may find a unique opportunity to be a part of a small and growing business, or maybe even start one of your own.
