Investment is not something special. It is originally part of life.
Japanese people,
When it comes to "investment,"
I think there are many who tense up, thinking it’s something difficult.
Because in Japan there is no “investment class” in schools.
In the United States, financial literacy education starts from childhood,
and the proportion of people who have a positive image of investing is high.
Why is there no “investment education” in Japan? Because…
Office workers have a monthly salary,
the amount after tax is their take-home pay,
everyone’s is the same, so they go through each day without question, and
for the country, the system is
“efficient”
and can reliably obtain a roughly fixed tax revenue every month.
In short, it’s profitable for the country.
If we do not educate financial literacy, no one will question it.
As a salaried worker,
by borrowing
they are convinced that building a home is a status symbol.
They are also taught that “investing is for the rich.”
On the other hand,
if freelance workers increase, they can avoid taxes by being in the red,
and if they fail at investing, they won’t have to borrow for a new car or a new home.
Then the government cannot calculate tax revenue, and becomes unstable.
“Only the portion of life that can be lived as a salaryman is automatically taxed
and they keep this up until retirement,”
if the system is kept as is, the country remains safe.
In other words,
we are not given knowledge and are being
“tamed”
“a member of a certain number of living shells”
to put it mildly.
A while ago,
people thought, “Salarymen have a stable income every month, that’s nice, isn’t it…?” but…!
Pension ages have moved back, and the amount received has decreased,
social security premiums keep rising as you work,
in other words,
the supposed secure taming automatic collection system and retirement pension system are collapsing,
as things stand now,
more and more people who are just salarymen will have their living standards collapse.
If more people go bankrupt, the tax revenue may become unstable, so the country might do something about it,
you might think, but
for example, like a prison,
concentration camps for welfare recipients making them work until death,
a harsh world might not be zero chance, and I think the probability is considerable.
On the surface, it doesn’t give that impression.
And they treat it as if it were a status symbol.
Right now, it’s time to start investing,
but first, gain the knowledge.
Investing is no longer something special.
It is a part of life.
That’s how it feels.
See you again!
