Introduction.
With the rapid development of contemporary society, people are under pressure from the workplace and family, and their physical and mental health are prone to problems.
Therefore, many people have said that "it is better to lie flat than to roll", and a Japanese man resolutely took extreme actions in order to achieve "lying flat" as soon as possible.
He does not pursue love and marriage, nor does he chase career achievements, he simply spends his days with rice and pickles, and has lived so plainly for 20 years, but he has accumulated a huge fortune of 94.7 million yen, and his only expectation is to save enough money for retirement as soon as possible.
When this man's daily life was shown to everyone, netizens were stunned and sighed that he was really amazing!
How has this Japanese man managed to survive for the past 20 years?
The company is like hell, and the boss exploits the employees.
After graduating from university, this Japanese man is actually a young man full of positivity and positivity.
However, once he stepped into society, he quickly realized the difficulties of life.
Despite having a college degree, you're still a tiny speck of dust in the crowd, and it's hard to find even a slightly better job.
The classmate next to him had the same sad face as himself, and even retreated to become a temporary worker, and the man's heart was even more anxious.
At this moment, the man suddenly received an offer from a large company, and he was ecstatic and dreamed of a bright future.
However, he soon discovers that all illusions are shattered.
The company he works for can be summed up in two words: hell!
A new man was immediately assigned to the lowest level of "servant", waking up early every day to go to the office and clean up the mess left behind in the office.
It doesn't seem like she's here to work, but like she's here to be a cleaning aunt.
In addition to this, the company's working hours have been significantly extended beyond normal working hours.
Everyone seems to be forced to work overtime, and as long as the boss is around, everyone has to stay, regardless of whether the work is completed or not.
Employees have to be welded to their seats, unable to leave, unable to eat, just creating the illusion that everyone is working very hard, which is called overtime.
Therefore, it is often at the beginning of the morning to get off work.
At the end of a hard day's work, the boss asked the man to work overtime until now. The man was tired and hungry, and had missed the tram home. If you have to walk home and walk back, you will probably have to go back to work immediately. So the man had to make do with the night in the office.
The physical injuries suffered by employees are just the tip of the iceberg, and the psychological torture they suffer is simply terrifying.
The bosses, while verbally speaking eloquently, promise to treat you as a family member and the company as a team and collective, once they show a twisted expression, they reveal their terrible nature.
Bosses will unceremoniously reprimand male employees who don't want to spend money and take time off to participate in necessary baseball team-building activities.
The man later felt sick at the sight of baseball, as it reminded him of the painful scene of being scolded by his boss.
After a week's vacation, the man's colleague took a week off due to depression. After returning to work, he did not get the attention of the culprit boss, but was ridiculed by the boss. The boss thinks the colleague is just faking illness and says something harsh.
In this environment, the man gradually felt physically and mentally exhausted, and he hadn't laughed for a long time. The people around him are wearing masks, as if they have become walking corpses, just living and working mechanically.
The man begins to feel uncertain about his life, and he begins to question whether he is studying and working hard in order to live a life like purgatory. He was thinking, could he just endure it?
After thinking about it for a long time, it seemed that there was a voice in his heart encouraging him to escape from this bad life, or he would rather choose death.
It is a harsh reality that he has to rely on work to make ends meet, but it is also a helpless choice. Therefore, he can only try to create a good future for himself.
As long as you start to cut back on food and clothing from now on, save money carefully, and save 95 million yen (about 471 yuan.)70,000 yuan), plus the future pension and the property left by his parents, it is expected that he will be able to achieve a self-sufficient retirement life before the age of 50.
Since then, a lot has changed in the man, and he has tried to shield himself from the distractions of the company and his boss, and he has devoted himself to pursuing a happy life.
So, in what way did he do it?
In order to accumulate wealth, a man minimizes his desires in order to save and accumulate money.
On the road to saving money, the first step for a man to do is to find the object of his heart.
According to the man's plan, he was not qualified to get married and have children at all. When it comes to love and marriage, the budget he set before will be disrupted.
Therefore, he made the decision to break up with his girlfriend, cut off the family ties with his own hands, and even said:
As long as I never have to work, I'd rather stay single for the rest of my life.
The second step in saving money is to divide your savings into two parts and then use half of them for investment or spending.
In Japan, where land is limited and land is precious, a man rents an old and dilapidated apartment for only 30,000 yen (1,505 yuan) a month.
Although the house has limited space and few basic furniture, the man thinks that he can meet his daily needs by picking up some second-hand tatami mats, microwaves, washing machines and refrigerators.
Next, it's a matter of gradually reducing your diet.
At first, the man tried to learn to make simple meals, such as pasta and omelet rice.
However, after a month of calculations, he found that he did not save as much money as he imagined. So, he decided to step up his efforts, gradually fading meat, eggs and dairy products from his daily diet and turning them into occasional "luxuries".
When buying ingredients, they choose to buy discounted dishes, but if you do this, you may eat bean sprouts every day.
In addition, it is important to make the most of resources, such as prioritizing the use of points when shopping.
In addition, he also bought some companies' wealth management products, and in return, these companies would distribute some daily necessities such as grain and oil.
In any case, try to minimize the number of purchases, and once you have purchased the daily necessities of the month, you should plan your use reasonably and reuse them many times.
Later, the man learned a "high trick" and often used spices to match food, such as rice with seasonings, or mixed with water to make soups.
If he runs out of seasonings, he has to make do with dried plums and rice.
He used the iron mesh as a baking sheet, filled the rice in a used milk carton, and cooked it on top of the alcohol stove because the rice cooker was broken. (Please note that this behavior is dangerous, please do not imitate!)）
However, as an adult man, he still needs protein and vitamins to survive, and he also needs a certain amount of relaxation due to his ascetic-like lifestyle.
Therefore, after a while, the man will indulge a little.
Take advantage of the meal voucher provided by the company and enjoy a delicious meal with fragrant beef rice and grilled salmon.
After spending 30,000 yen (about 1,050 yuan) on a used car for cleaning and modification, it becomes a small camping RV.
When his deposit reached 80 million yen, he drove to the beach alone to enjoy the sea breeze and delicious food.
He also named "The Man Who Will Resign" and opened a personal blog, recording the ups and downs along the way with interesting cartoons.
In that moment, he felt very happy and relaxed.
Did that man realize his dream of early retirement after 20 years?
Although the years are long, happiness lies ahead.
The man has now managed to accumulate 94.7 million yen, which is just one step away from the original 97 million yen.
However, the man recalculated and finally decided to raise the target to 100 million yen (equivalent to 496.).50,000 yuan), after all, it is close to this amount.
He can already imagine the day he resigned and retired.
The song "Dragon Quest" came from the headphones, and he seemed to be the hero who successfully defeated the dragon, and he wrote his resignation letter without hesitation.
From then on, he can enjoy life to the fullest and no longer worry about money.
He plans to take out all the money, take a photo, experience the happiness of the rich, and then save it back.
He would shed the suit and leather shoes he had worn for more than 20 years, put on loose-fitting and comfortable clothing, and run around the park.
He wanted to find a bench to sit on, admire the cherry blossoms falling from the trees, and enjoy a beer while feeling the crowds coming and going on the street.
In the end, the man also told everyone present in a very embarrassed manner
If my happiness bothers you, you can not hesitate to roll your eyes at me, after all, I have been working hard for 20 years, and now happiness has finally arrived.
All in all. The world is in turmoil and often makes us breathless.
People of every age group will sigh why it is incomprehensible why children who go to school, adults who work, parents who raise families, everyone's face is full of exhaustion.
It seems that most people come into this world destined to endure all kinds of tribulations.
In an ingenious way, this Japanese man has exchanged his 20 years of hard work for a leisurely life after the age of 50.
May he realize the life he longs for as soon as possible and share a new greeting with the world.
