God bless the owner for letting that 91 year old lady live for free in his apartment. Kindness is more meaningful than money sometimes

[romainrahni]

if the owner of the appartement of the 91 year old lady sees this, just to let you know that there should be more people like you in this world ! huge respect to you whoever you are !

[SPT]

It was overall cool but the 91 year old lady was the most interesting part. I think you should interview older Japanese people more often, it's interesting to see the contrast between the Japan they knew and current Japan.

What a beautiful act of compassion! The owner's generosity has given that 91-year-old lady a secure and familiar place to call home, offering peace of mind that money simply can't buy

Praying for all the people affected by the earthquake in Ishikawa today. Japan and NZ share this in common, we're both shaky isles. But with a much bigger population, the affects in Japan are always much worse. I hope everyone is safe there now - and wishing Ishikawa a speedy recovery.

We appreciate these interviews. Gives us more insight in regards to Japanese society and its economy.

The age range of the people interviewed was great.

It was so interesting to hear their thoughts on this topic and their rough income.

I especially liked the comment from the older 55 year old man.

[johanness]

Very interesting, thank you. Also very good to show younger and older people who often have different perspectives! Keep up the good work!

[MrSweeperUSA]

God bless that old Japanese lady. She had to be a child during ww2. What a delight to hear her insight . She lived through so many eras in Japan. Almost could feel her soul through the video. Awesome job Takashi-San!

[akaiseigo]

A huge respect for the nice grandma who is fully aware with today's issues.

[jpfecteaumaine]

Your interviews are so genuine and well done. Thank you for all of your efforts.

[dougietruter]

I am amazed by the humbleness and impeccable manners of the Japanese people. I wish the world could learn from them. You are courteous and a great interviewer. Well done; I have massive respect for the people of Japan.

I am from Germany and Japan had the image of an expensive travel destination that’s why I always postponed my Japan Trip. Your video changed some assumptions I had about Japan. Very interesting. I wish the economy improves, because everybody deserves a decent life.

The guy who spoke Portuguese and English has a knack for languages. Even if he is not confident about his English, his pronunciation is some of the best I have heard from a Japanese person that has not spent significant time abroad.

[DrainedPunk]

I am from Poland and when I first visited Japan in 2017 it was still quite an expensive destination for our standards. But during my last trip in the summer of 2023 I was surprised to find out that inexpensive restaurants and groceries at convenience stores are already considerably cheaper than in Poland. There are some things that are still quite expensive, like Shinkansen tickets and hotels in the biggest cities. But overall, I think if it wasn’t for plane ticket prices it would be quite an inexpensive holiday.

[catamountmpls]

Great interview. You ask the questions people are looking for, and kindly allow the person to give full answers, which allowed me to learn quite a bit that I didn't know.

“People shared the same heart.” A sweet memory from a sweet 91 year old lady. I hope the people of Japan will share the same heart again. Japan is an endearing country. ❤

I recently lost my grandma who lived for 88 years, she had dementia and stayed at the care center for the last 2 years - so I truly impressed by that madame at 91 years old who lives her own !! Wish her best for coming years 😌

[vpaskua]

So interesting to hear all their opinions, from young to older age. I'm a 32 yo portuguese and still live in Portugal, but I can relate with so much that has been said regarding japanese life. Everything is super expensive now (in proportion to our wages): house, food, commodities (electricity, water, etc), transportation... Health and education sectors are collapsing and the government doesn't blink an eye. Over the past few years, many of my friends have gone abroad to work and have no intention to return anymore. Portugal is a little paradise by the sea, with amazing food and people, but only foreigners can enjoy it now. Hope you can visit us someday and talk about your experience here :) have a good 2024!

I really like how the girl in the end answered the questions, it’s like she sees through things and she has a very clear mind
