My jaw dropped when I read millions. Insane amount of people that need to evacuate, is it even possible at this point?

[triciac]

Oh gosh! They are hit with everything! Prayers for Japan! Where do they even evacuate to?

We Are in Unchartered Financial Waters! every day we encounter challenges that have become the new standard. Although we previously perceived it as a crisis, we now acknowledge it as the new normal and must adapt accordingly. Given the current economic difficulties that the country is experiencing in 2024, how can we enhance our earnings during this period of adjustment? I cannot let my $680, 000 savings vanish after putting in so much effort to accumulate them.

How are millions supposed to evacuate now? Where are 5 million people supposed to evacuate to during the middle of this? I feel so bad for all of them it must be terrifying.

Poor Japan. An island nation on the ring of fire. Typhoons, earthquake la, volcanoes and tsunamis. That country is always at the edge of impending doom dealt out by Mother Nature 🫤

5 MILLION had to evacuate?!That is crazy! I hope everyone can get out safely. Disaster preparedness is so important; I hope they all have emergency kits packed in their homes!
