I am seriously pondering dropping my life here in the USA (personal life, not business) and heading off the Japan for the time of my life.
It seems really enticing, enough so, that I am thinking about dumping my girlfriend, selling my car, and flying straight to Taiwan International!
Whats rent like? (compare pricing to USA, dont say its really high and be thinking about what someone makes yearly in Japan)
How are the women?
What types of attractions are there that'll keep a person busy a ton of the time.
How much is food? Electricity, Water, Clothes, Cars?
What is the concentration of whites living in Japan? (atleast in major cities)
What are jobs like there for most people? Do they have enough money to be able to spend it on frivolous, or not 'neccesary to life' things?
How well would an English Teacher for Japanese students do?

Most japanese only speak engrish, no english at all or are scared to talk to you, taiwan isn't japan, you won't get a job anywhere beside a slave contract english teacher job that gets you peanuts, if you already were at an university, otherwise nobody wants you and you won't get a visa and can go home.
Japan is a xenophobic country and generally NOT foreigner friendly.
Moving to a country you know nothing about but you "always wanted to go there" sounds kinda stupid in my opinion.
