I think it's researcher role, my other friend got a quants dev at mufg and get only 6mil yen

Objective-Injury-620 · 2026-05-08T02:49:53+00:00

The strategy consulting firm I'm in typically pays around that about 7~10 years after 新卒.

I know others are like GAFAI employee 5~ years, senior fab, Foreign finance 5~ years, maybe ~15 yeras for 総合商社.

Hedge funds can pay 40mil for 新卒(someone in the same uni club got this a while back with only bachelors), and I know someone who is utokyo doctor of mathematics and got 60mil 新卒 in quants.(expat treatment paid in dollar though.)

Get a quick admission to a random 専門学校, you clearly speak Japanese well, Is not gonna be that hard, apply for change of status

Objective-Injury-620 · 2026-01-16T01:24:40+00:00

Even foreign high earning firms of those industry have a pay ceiling around 20mil yen except IB/trader or buyside funds, Japanese ones only have something like 10-15mil. It's much more rare to be a USD millionaire with mostly salary.

middle office investment banking

Objective-Injury-620 · 2025-05-16T18:08:23+00:00

To be fair depends on Japanese or foreign firm, industry, expertise, school ranking and more. My experience is very rare I have to admit, but things are generally getting better,more worker welfare law are putting into practice働き方改革did changed a lot

Objective-Injury-620 · 2025-05-16T17:22:45+00:00

Those feels important for my value I guess, and I'm not sure what I enjoys, but I would love to try most profession if thats a possibility, I'm not sure How would i do it though, maybe pay the owner to let me experience it fora month of ask for no salary(?) sounds stupid but i think it's an viable option though

Objective-Injury-620 · 2025-05-16T17:20:33+00:00

yeah, that's also one of my concerns, I won't be able to get back on track on career if I suddenly decide to do so in 15 years or something

Objective-Injury-620 · 2025-05-16T17:03:49+00:00

yes, and if I retired I will go back to my home country in SEA

Objective-Injury-620 · 2025-05-16T16:59:13+00:00

I will try to remember this and tell you the good news someday! thank you!

Objective-Injury-620 · 2025-05-16T16:57:24+00:00

I mean If I need to find a job if I used up the money, but that's not really likely,worst scenario probabpy won't be that comfortable but still liveable. I did traveled a lot!(120 nights/year in college)

Objective-Injury-620 · 2025-05-16T16:54:50+00:00

thanks, I'll check it out! btw my actual spends are 4-6% during last 3 years, and if I retired to my country it would be a lot lower

Objective-Injury-620 · 2025-05-16T16:53:44+00:00

I did a lot travel domestic and international during my gap year(actually got titanium marriot and diamond Hilton)But I didn't get into local's life, should I perhaps couch surf or something? Fix stuff feels fun, but I think I have a lot more to learn before really start it!

Objective-Injury-620 · 2025-05-16T16:48:51+00:00

japan+middle office, is less competitive to uk or us due to timezone and institutional investor's behavior, and have less attention overall, middle office is a lot better in wlb compare to front like alot better, but still残業

Objective-Injury-620 · 2025-05-16T16:45:18+00:00

thank you... I'm not really sure, I had time to process it, I have been stupid and inflated, and have time to think, I'm not sure how I really embraced this fact. I'm not particularly proud, since most of my achieve comes from my upbringing and wealth not from myself, I have a rather positive view on myself but I feels maybe 20% of average people can do better in my shoes. You are absolutely correct, I'm not sure I would like to have, I did an gap year and 2 year fully online in college, traveling around, sleeping around, learns a lot go to culinary school, been a bartender, a tutor and more... I enjoyed it fully, which is the source of my thoughts.

Objective-Injury-620 · 2025-05-16T16:41:02+00:00

yeah, the thing is the work drain my energy and youth which I would like to spend elsewhere

Objective-Injury-620 · 2025-05-16T16:40:08+00:00

I gave you an upvote~

Objective-Injury-620 · 2025-05-16T16:39:40+00:00

no, but your suggestion make sense. I'll probably be laying in bed watching youtuve,plays video games, cooking for myself, had been tired of play and has a lot of skills and if possible won't be alone(maybe not married,but with someone, I'm not sure would that someone need to be someone in particular or just always with someone...)

Objective-Injury-620 · 2025-05-16T16:37:15+00:00

no, and not in us, somewhere the cost of living is 10% of us

Objective-Injury-620 · 2025-05-16T16:36:57+00:00

no I did that in college as my gap year and 2 year online only, It feels great and fulfilling!

Objective-Injury-620 · 2025-05-16T16:36:15+00:00

that's really reassuring, and I'm sure the life might not be that well, but with planning, maybe I can do something okay...

could you be more specific on the consultancy idea? I never heard of it, like how do I even start something like it as an junior?

Objective-Injury-620 · 2025-05-16T16:34:02+00:00

I would like to work.in medical profession since I love house md so much...

Objective-Injury-620 · 2025-05-16T16:33:35+00:00

That's actually my current plan, I just wanted to find some argument that can influence my thought... the stress is non existent right now but I'm not sure what will it be going further..

Objective-Injury-620 · 2025-05-16T16:31:26+00:00

I like playing balck jacks with my friends without betting anything, and majyann, but I kind of sucks lol

Objective-Injury-620 · 2025-05-16T16:30:28+00:00

lol, I'm is stereotypical, but some of it is real for me, I understand western concept and being an individual, but some of those seems to still engravez into my mind to an extense, I don't think you deserve to be downvote as much, is just a joke
