How much money do you make in Japan?

by **hanasims** » Thu Oct 16, 2003 7:54 am

Please be honest, the survey is confidential. This survey could be useful to all of us as a reference for where we are interms of income and where we could be. Choose honestly if you expect other to do the same.

I wonder if anyone on the FG is in the 100 million yen range? My guess would be that Taro is close.

SPOT ON Kamome... if you're using my "special" FG post ratio of 10,000,000+ posts. :wink:

Heh. I thought the same thing. "Is it in yen? So does that make it per-hour? Who gets paid per hour in Japan? And are there jobs that pay 50,000 yen per hour? And if there are, where can I get one?"

Caustic Saint if you are looking for extra cash here is a job that might be right up your block (pun intended) http://www.wired.com/news/culture/0,1284,60764,00.html

As a small business owner my take home salary is negligible - ie nothing!! I get paid in shares - occassionally. This is not what I tell the tax office of course as they would send an auditor to inspect my colon to find out what I am using to survive..

Also is the above in USD, JPY, AUD, GBP, Baht?? what?? it makes no sense.. also many people here are on wages...

Yes but.... when billing a J-client, 50,000 yen/hour is fairly standard in Japanese IT consulting as it is in J-law.

Ah, but there's a difference between billing by the hour at a high rate and having an employee paid by the hour at a high rate.

Not anymore.. try 10,000 per hour for IT consulting.. this is the going rate that most consulting companies charge. (not myself of course) Not sure about Law but perhaps Kamome can enlighten us on that score.

Depends on the prestige of the firm and the level of experience the attorney has. I'd say the range is anywhere from JPY 20,000 - 70,000 per hour.

I've paid 20,000 yen in the past but my upcoming immigration/pension lawsuit is gonna cost 50,000 y/h. As far as 10,000 per hour for IT consulting -- SHEEEEEEEEEE-IT -- My air-con man or plumber gets that.

Yep I know!!! I have thought many a time - especially lately - that I am in the wrong job.. I could make more as a hostess.. but I would probably belittle the customers too much with my rapier wit....
