Having worked in Japan for five years, let me talk about my views on this issue.
Let's look at a group of average annual incomes in recent years.
On average, the average income of Japanese men is about 500,000 yen per month, and that of women is about 250,000 yen. How much RMB is equal to can be converted according to the exchange rate. Next, I use Japanese yen as the unit of measurement.
Suppose a man earning 500,000 a month and a woman earning 250,000 a month form a family, and Na Yue's income is around 750,000. This is basically the normal income of an ordinary family.
Let's look at consumption again. Taking Tokyo as the coordinate, the group rent of 2DK is about 75,000, the mobile phone fee for water and electricity access is about 2w, and the monthly tax deduction (medical insurance, resident tax and annuity) is about 80,000, which means the basic living expenses are about180,000.
Then there is the living expenses for two people. It's cheaper to bring your own lunch. If you combine your lunch with food, even if each person spends 1 0,000 yen a day, working for 20 days a month on average, even if you spend 50,000 yuan on meals, plus the weekend expenses, or friends get together, or go out, or improve food at home, the weekly10.5 million is already quite a lot, and it is 60,000 around a month. Plus the budget for buying clothes is 40 thousand. So the living expenses are (5+6+4 = 1.5 million).
The basic living expenses for two people are about 330,000, and the annual family trip is about 360,000 per month. In fact, the cost of 360 thousand is enough for two people to live comfortably.
As for medical care and education. In terms of medical treatment, in Japan, almost all clinics and hospitals are reimbursed by medical insurance cards, and only 30% of the expenses are paid. In China, you can only enjoy it if you are hospitalized. In Japan, medical insurance is used for colds. Once in the hospital, a minor illness costs thousands of yen. If a serious illness requires surgery, go to the district service office to set a medical limit, and the medical expenses you have to pay each month will not exceed the amount you can afford. Teaching all kinds of education is a subsidy from birth.
The more taxes paid by high-income people, the less taxes paid by low-income people, but two people can basically save half of their money. Even if they save 3 million a year, they will have 6.5438 billion yen in three years. It is also possible to mortgage a suite in Tokyo. You may save less in the first two years, but you can basically save a sum of money after two years. In Japan, it is common to mortgage a suite in the capital in five or six years, but ordinary migrant workers in China don't know how many years to wait.
As a civilian, you can live a good life in Japan, enjoy equal medical care, education and clean air. You can't compare with other people's rich life, but Japanese civilians will live a more comfortable life than those in China.
It is said that Japanese people have high incomes, which was 30 years ago. Japanese people are 300,000 yen at 30, 400,000 yen at 40 and 500,000 yen at 50. It was a proper middle class life 30 years ago, so it is no exaggeration to say that there were middle classes everywhere in Japan 30 years ago.
But times have changed. Now Japan is still 300,000 yen at the age of 30, 400,000 yen at the age of 40 and 500,000 yen at the age of 50. Unfortunately, the price is not the same as it was 30 years ago. In the past 30 years, due to the rise of emerging countries such as China, a large number of Japanese industrial spaces have been occupied, such as air conditioners, refrigerators, washing machines, color TVs, computers, mobile phones and automobiles. We can see them, and there are many ordinary ones. The shrinking of Japanese industry has led the Japanese government to levy higher taxes on its citizens than before.
It seems that wages in Japan are very high now. In fact, a large part of the income is only for the Japanese. Japanese people's income is pre-tax, and they are skinned several times after tax. However, property taxes and home insurance (wooden houses need fire insurance, earthquake insurance and Taiwan Province insurance, and if old houses have pest insurance) have made the Japanese feel at a loss. Japan has a consumption tax. Starting from 5438+00 in June this year, the Japanese government raised the original consumption tax from 8% to 10%, which means that the wages paid by people decreased by 10%, and even the taxes were collected by air. This makes China people puzzled, because China people don't have to pay these messy taxes, and it is precisely these taxes that empty half of the Japanese pockets. Look at the small-displacement cars on the streets of Japan, isn't it just to save a few gas money? Don't tell me that the Japanese are environmentally friendly. Thirty years ago, Japanese people were full of cars with crowns, corollas and similar displacement. In the past 30 years, Japanese society has changed, and I didn't know it for a few days. Life in Japanese society is very stressful, and money is just enough to live. Ordinary people have little money to save. In order to avoid high taxes, many capable Japanese have to leave Japan and live in China. The number of homeless people rarely seen before has been increasing in recent years. There are many homeless people in city parks, subway corridors and some blocks.
As we all know, Japan's pension is not enough to support the elderly. In Japan, the regular and stepped retirement pension of ordinary Japanese is only equivalent to RMB 3,000 to 4,000. They can't support themselves at all, so they are helpless. Old people in their seventies and eighties should try their best to find jobs. Japan has janitors, taxi drivers, bus drivers, cleaners, landscaping and other elderly people. What about the deposit? Didn't you say that Japanese people have high incomes? For anyone, providing for the aged is the biggest thing. Don't you save the extra money for your old age? Sorry, it's not that the Japanese don't save money, but there really isn't much money to save. Helpless, the elderly in Japan can only make money desperately when they are still in good health, in case of emergency. Any old man who is in good health after retirement wants to do what he likes, such as traveling, gardening, entertainment and fitness. . . Unfortunately, the elderly in Japan do not have this blessing. This is far worse than the life of retirees in China.
From the retirement life of the elderly in Japan, it can be seen that the wages of ordinary Japanese are just enough to live.
I am in Japan now. Let me answer your question:
1, human resources in Japan are very expensive. The hourly wage for washing dishes in restaurants is 1000- 1200 yen, which is about 66-80 yuan per hour. Japanese seldom change jobs. It is common for a company to stay for a lifetime. Income according to calculate length. The longer the service time, the higher the salary. And the more professional, the more money you make.
2. Consumption level: mineral water 100- 160 yen a bottle (from 6 yuan to1/kloc-0 yuan a bottle), but Japanese tap water can be directly extracted. Why is there mineral water, that is, mineral water contains negative oxygen ions? Anyway, it's good for people to drink it. The average life expectancy of Japanese people is 65438+ longer than that of China people. Eating in Japan is not very expensive, just like in China. Fruit is very expensive, apples and peaches are 30-60 yuan.
To say that wages in Japan are high means that consumption in Japan is not high.
1, ordinary clerks, nurses, etc. Just graduated with only 200,000 to 250,000 yen. You have to deduct the insurance pension, 18 to 220 thousand. That is,10,000 RMB to15,000 RMB.
2, the It industry will be relatively high, graduated or inexperienced, and can get 300,000-350,000 at the beginning. Get 250 thousand to 300 thousand 10.5 million RMB to10.8 million RMB. If you are enterprising and willing to work hard, your salary will rise to 25,000 RMB after you are 30. Good technology can be people, and it can also rise to 40,000-60,000 RMB. Basically, after the age of 45, wages will not rise again.
3. Japanese social wages have not increased much, which is common in all industries. Increase RMB 500 a year, so that your salary is basically the same as when you graduate.
The price in Japan is very high. It's still cheap, remote and small to rent 60,000-70,000 yen and 3,000 RMB. It costs 3000 yuan to buy a cheap bed and 2000 yuan to buy a mattress. It costs 2000 yuan to buy a dining table. . . . . . No matter how cheap it is, the price will not come down. The higher it is, the cheaper it will be.
So, after another calculation, can you save money?
Many families in Japan are moonlight families, waiting to get paid every month. It will be difficult when you don't answer it. It is said that Japanese people basically don't save money. In fact, such a life is hard to save money.
About 80% of the general public. Of course, there are also social elites and several generations of chaebol families. Don't consider this situation. After all, their lives have never been ordinary.

Supplement:
There is no real data to prove that the fact is my fault.
It says that people around me and I really live in Japan. Of course, people are different. Some people mix well, then life is another kind of scenery.
I found some data on Yahoo Japan, which is shown in the picture. You can look at it and do the math. Just look at the numbers.
Figure 1 shows nurses, that is, teachers in nurseries and kindergartens, most of whom are women, so it shows women's income.
Figure 2 shows the salary of office posts, that is, working in an office, and other jobs without particularly prominent technical content are counted as transactions. For example: accounting, trade, customer service, etc.
Figure 3 is the average salary table of SE in IT industry. Many China code farmers are engaged in SE in Japan, and few can be project managers or senior managers. Those who can become top managers have a monthly income of 1 10,000 yen (about 60,000 RMB).
Figure 4 shows the annual premium.
Figure 5 shows the national pension, which is the pension, or the lowest one.
In addition, the salary in the chart is not the salary you get, and the insurance pension will be deducted after you get it.
Rent and price, I don't want it. Everyone can find their own way of life. See if you want to be comfortable or hard on yourself.
Also, I'm just here to share objective and true information with you. If I have offended you, apologize first. Civilized * * * enjoy the information, don't spray it if you don't like it, thank you.
Straight answer: According to the survey of DODA website in Japan, the average annual salary in Japan in 20 18 years is about 4 1400 yen, equivalent to 273,200 yuan! This salary should be quite high, but it also depends on the price level. If the annual income is 273,200 RMB, the price of food, clothing, housing and transportation in Japan should be about 3-5 times that in China, and such a high salary is not too "high".
However, we can't just talk about an average salary in general, because many people have been "averaged" and shouted "delayed". Let's take a look at the wage level of Japanese industry first!
(Photo: Wage distribution in various industries in Japan)
Let's read it:
The average salary of IT and communication industry is 46 1 1,000 yen/year, equivalent to 304,000 RMB/year;
Internet, advertising and media: 465,438+0.2 million yen/year, equivalent to 272,000 RMB/year;
Service industry: 3.76 million yen/year, equivalent to 248,000 RMB/year;
Manufacturing industry: 4.56 million yen/year, equivalent to RMB 30 1 1,000 yuan/year;
Pharmaceutical industry: 4.5 million yen/year, equivalent to 297,000 RMB/year;
Financial industry: 4.46 million yen/year, equivalent to 294,000 yuan/year;
Buildings and real estate: 4,654.38+0.8 million yen/year, equivalent to 276,000 RMB/year;
Retail and food: 3.55 million yen/year, equivalent to 234,000 yuan/year;
If you look for the top three industries in Japan, they are: IT communication, manufacturing and pharmaceutical industry.
Finance and real estate are not in the top three, and manufacturing ranks second, which is really unimaginable.
It is worth noting that being a teacher in Japan is not a high-paying industry. The average annual salary is only 3,265,438+200,000 yen (265,438+200,000 RMB), which is about 25% less than the average salary.

However, Japan also faces a huge gap between the rich and the poor. There is a considerable gap between the richest 20% population and the poorest 20% population. The income of the former is more than six times that of the latter.
Judging from the employment situation, among the Japanese 15-64 age group, 75% have paid jobs, 83% men have jobs, and the proportion of women is 67%.
As far as the quality of the education system is concerned, Japan is the best performing country. In Japan, the proportion of adults aged 25 to 64 who have completed higher education is higher than the average of 78% in developed countries. In the PISA of developed countries, the average score of students in reading literacy, mathematics and science is 529, which is much higher than the average score of 486 in developed countries.
In terms of health, life expectancy at birth in Japan is 84 years, which is 4 years higher than the average life expectancy of 80 years in developed countries, and it is one of the countries with the highest life expectancy. The life expectancy of women is 87 years, and that of men is 8 1 year.
But overall, Japanese people's satisfaction with life is lower than the average level of developed countries. When asked to rate their overall satisfaction with life from 0 to 10, the Japanese gave a score of 5.9, which was lower than the average of 6.5 in developed countries.
The Japanese suicide rate is not without reason. They tried their best to get higher income, but life didn't become happy. I think there is another important factor, that is, the food price in Japan is about five times higher than that in China.
According to the statistics of the National Tax Agency of Japan, the average annual income of Japanese in 20 17 years is about 290,000 RMB.
Proportionally, people with an annual income of 290,000 account for 14%(20-30 years old) of the total working population, and those with an annual income of more than 290,000 account for 44.7%(40 -50 years old) of the total working population.
According to the ratio of men to women, the average income of men is about 360,000, and the average income of women is about 6,543,800+0.9 million.
In addition, among the average annual income of 290,000, personal income tax is about 7,000, resident tax (fees collected by districts and counties)10.4 million, and various insurances and pensions are 36,000. The actual annual income is about 230,000, and the monthly income is about 2.
Wan.
(The attached figure shows the approximate monthly expenditure of people with an annual income of 290,000 RMB for your reference. If there are no other expenses, you can save about 70,000 yuan a year, and you can buy a finely decorated house with a salary of 10- 13 in Tokyo.
In Japan, the longer the working hours, the higher the salary and the more valuable it is. In China, many jobs have age restrictions, such as how old you are.
Everyone must abide by the rules when working in Japan, while China usually goes its own way.
There are few Japanese people, so the country pays more attention to the health of its people. Few people generally look down on this disease.
Many goods made in Japan can only be delivered after the quality is monitored. There are many kinds of goods produced in China, and the weight is not important.
.........
Foreigners like to earn money from China, while few people in China will earn money from foreigners.
If China people can stop hurting each other, cheat less, be kind to their own people, have less interests, have less order, have less negative atmosphere and have more positive attitude, we can crush foreigners in all fields.
Everyone knows that poverty limits life.
