How much money would i need to have to live in japan for life if you are 16 and have a job?

Question:


i'm mostly getting tired of the limitations of this country and the limitations of being a teenager, so mostly my goal in life is to live in japan for life when i graduate high school or have enough money to leave my parents and live on my own(or in other cases, have a maid helping me with the house stuff)so technically i'm asking you guys this, how much money do i need to do all these things in total amount:
1. to buy a decent car to drive anywhere
2. to buy plane tickets for japan
3. to have a maid in japan
4. to get both japanese and american passports
5. to buy my own japanese house
6. to have a job as an japanese video game seller
and
7. to import goods to family members from japan

so that's all i'm asking and how much would that be in total of american dollars or in yen(which ever is fine)

thank you for reading this!

Answer:


Do you speak Japanese? Becoming a citizen will take a VERY long time.

1. You don't need a car in Japan, public transport is amazing, gas is also very pricey. If you wanted a small car, not different than here $17,000 USD would suffice.

2. Because of the disaster, plane tickets at the moment are affordable. Return plane tickets will set you back $1100-1600 USD from Canada-US to Japan.

3.Maid!? Are you crazy? Like a live-in maid? You would have to pay them the same or MORE than whatever salary a 16 year old could get

4. They don't sell them in vending machine sorry. Japan also does not support dual citizenship,

5. Most people in cities rent. You could get a crappy studio apt in Tokyo for $800 a month. it would be TINY


this is all so bizarre, no education? You would actually not be able to work in JAPAN you need to get a work visa, and often only people with degrees can get that, if not you could only stay short term.

the job market in japan is also horrible.

your plan is crap. sorry.
