Re: Need advice: take profits?
I wanted to "gift" my kids 1m each year and invest that into their own investment accounts (eMaxis Slim All-Country). However, after transferring the money into their accounts a few months ago, I came to realize (with a couple of phone calls to their bank) that they are not eligible to in...

Re: Preplanning your own funeral
I have a plot of land and would be happy to be doused in gasoline, burned, then scattered on that land. I've wondered if this is OK... Not the human BBQ out back, but the scattering of ashes. I'd like my ashes to be scattered at some of my favourite places that have meant a lot to me over the years...

Re: Sock options
I've had great success with Danish Endurance socks on Amazon... I run and train quite a bit and these socks last really well. They're comfy and the merino blend have been great during the winter. For skiing, skating etc. I've splurged and bought legit Smartwool socks and they're on another level!

Re: Storage heater (ceramic bricks heater)
I have a storage heater... It's a Stiebel Eltron product but I'm not sure of the model. From looking at the website it looks like it might be the SHF4000 model. Anyway, I live in Nagano surrounded by mountains, up around 700m elevation and the unit has been a waste of money unfortunately... When we ...

Re: 10 years old! How has RetireJapan helped you?
Not quite sure what sparked my interest back in 2018, but I stumbled upon the RetireJapan guides for iDeCo and NISA, and then the forum. Within probably a month of reading, asking questions, getting lots of invaluable information, I had everything either set up or paperwork was pending approval. Sin...

Re: Simple Q&A - NISA
Will it just continue or automatically change over? Yes. Cool! So I have my TNISA running now at ¥4man a month (the ¥33,333 + ¥6,667 thanks to a late start in the year). Does this mean I don't have to do anything and it'll continue to invest ¥4man a month into the same eMaxis Slim All-Country? If s...
