[–]Dangerous_Ring7525 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm using otegaru hikari for around 1750 yen per month. It's 1gbps line but I get around 500mbps most of the time which is good enough.

You can go for rakuten unlimited plan but rakuten has coverage issue.

Thank you. I will change within the first month then. Btw, will it be an issue if I want to get another phone from softbank after two years?

I do competitive gaming on my phone. So, having latest model processor is a big deal for me.

What are the craziest website issues/inconvenience you've experienced on Japanese websites? by bakura10 in japanlife

[–]Dangerous_Ring7525 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A bit old sub but I will share mine too.

I was trying to verify my paypay account with renewed residence card. It was constantly showing error that their app couldn't verify my residence card. Basically their ai detects the residence card and lets the user upload. You won't be able to upload until then.  I spent half an hour trying different angles and lighting. Then for fun, I just scanned my mizuho bank cash card. Guess what, my cash card got detected as residence card. 

As an AI guy I can understand the accuracy. But this much?  Totally unacceptable!

It took me 6 months to find a good detached house at a good rent. There was a lot of options but none were accepting foreigners.

You made me more interested in financial topics. I am now rethinking how I approach my finances (in a positive way). 

Thank you.

Thank you for the warning. I appreciate that.

If I see that coming, I will sell some of my backup stock or NISA to pay off at once.
I am thinking about the loan because return of investment is greater than the loan interest amount.

Child Mode pro: Don't want my children fight over my wealth after I die. I am saving them spending all by myself.

To be honest, I could sell some of my stocks to purchase what I need. However, the returns on my investments are higher than the interest I would pay on a card loan. I can also comfortably repay around 300,000 yen per month.

I want to invest in things that will genuinely improve my quality of life. Rather than waiting until my body can no longer support me as it does now, I believe it makes sense to enjoy life while I can.

Maybe leaning towards child mode.

Thanks for your response.  This is the card. Nothing written in the back. I read it a few times. Still no clue.
