This video has no mid-roll ads, so you can relax and enjoy it without interruptions. ☺️

In this video, I talk about how salaries work for company employees in Japan.

We will look at average salaries, monthly pay, bonuses, deductions, take-home pay, and why many Japanese company employees do not file their own tax returns.

Japan may look affordable from the outside, but to understand real life in Japan, we also need to understand how much people actually earn — and how much money remains after taxes and social insurance.

I hope this video helps you understand a more realistic side of life in Japan.

Next time, I will talk about prices and the cost of living in Japan.
If you understand both take-home pay and prices, I think you can imagine real life in Japan much more clearly.
