What is one million yen worth in Japan?
Its a bit like asking how long is a piece of string. 1 million is riches to a beggar but pocket change to a millionaire. US dollars are not used in Japan as legal currency but the exchange rate is around 110 yen to the $US dollar. If you are on about 250,000 yen a month then it's four months wages. You spend according to your budget and how much spending (disposable) money you have after paying rent bills, insurance, food etc. You earn more more you can afford to spend more (or save more if you are frugal). There are billionaires in Japan as well as homeless people, single mothers and students working at part time jobs. If you want to know what the average or median income (i.e 50% are above and 50% are below this figure) its about 4.5 million yen, probably enough to support a wife and one or two kids in basic necessities.Some wives work part time but ensure not to earn over 1 million a year as it affects the tax status of husband's income if she earns over that or too much. One million yen is the average tuition cost of a private university for one person for one year. 1 million yen will get you a decent late model used car (of courses new cars can go anything from 1-6 million yen depending on make.) 10 million yen is roughly $90,000, 1 million yen is about $9,000. You would probably be able to buy a garage or parking space for 10 million but would make a sizable deposit on something nice.
If you had 100 million dollars and wanted to live off interest, where would you put it for the best returns?
If I had $100,000,000 I could put it in a savings account with 1% interest and easily live off the interest = 1% interest equal $1,000,000 the best returns with the most safety is a basic probably just a CD or money market.
Do any Jews realize that Lying, killing, and the pursuit of money and power, are not endearing qualities?
Dd, I think the point will be lost on many here, but dare you say that they should not be exterminating another race (Lebanese Arabs) and you wait and see the response you get. Of course not all Jewish people support the genocidal actions of their government, just like the majority of people oppose Bush's attack on a sovereign nation resulting in the ending of tens of thousands of Iraq lives, opening the can of worms that is civil war, and creating more terrorists and terrorist actions than the people had ever previously experienced. The problem with the Israeli sympathisers and they cannot see it is they claim terrorists are threatening them and their lives, but it is ok to terrorise and kill Lebanese women and children in pursuit of a group they are too afraid to face head on, despite their supposed military superiority, and result to the cowards option of lobbing bombs from a distance. Shame on them. bumpocooper, our tax dollars are enough thanks. From a discredited adminstration to a discredited terrorist state.
