some people do more than surviving with the minimum Japanese salary and some people aren't satisfied with twice that salary so it all depends on you and your way of living.What would an acceptable before-tax salary in Tokyo be? I have accepted a position and will begin mid-August: I did my homework of course and know for sure my salary will be higher than the average foreign professional in my industry... but but but will it be enough to survive, save something and still nurture my interests and social life?
So, according to everybody's experience, what would a decent salary for a freshman in Japan be? Don't need specific figures, just a range to have an idea of what to expect... Thanks
You need to tell more about your way of living if you want a good answer, for example can you live outside of the Yamanote line or do you absolutely need to live 2 min walking distance from Shibuya station ?
