抹茶プリン
So I have always been the type of person to save, hopefully some day I can retire myself from work rather than having my employer retire me.
When I started working, I made some calculation and with my current salary, if I dont go out, slur on things, I might have a chance to retire after 10 years in some country.
But as I teach myself about finance, learning about inflation and stuffs, I realize that my initial 10-year plan would take 100 years or more.
I guess nothing is easy in the world, if you dont learn, dont invest, you will be the slave to your employer until the day you die. The pension system in Japan is forked up as well. The older generation is never going to die, living with their promised high pension. I think when it is my turn to get my pension, I would get something like 3 dollars per month.
All I wanted are 3 things. To live a simple life, to do a good work-life-balanced 9 to 5 job and to be happy. I achieved none of it. And realizing that that life is never going to sustain me in a fast-changing world was a bucket of ice to my face.
I wish I was not so stubborn growing up thinking I can live in my bubble and not look outside. What a fool I have been...
