Buy gold, and silver if you want a kicker, be patient (can you?) Relax. Check again in 2030. You will hang on to your purchasing power. Tanaka Kinzoku, and Mitsubishi Materials Gold Park, are easy places to start. Or simply save in USD, just the cleanest shirt in the hamper. Or do nothing. Rates go up; they go down. Probably tangibles beat intangibles for the rest of the decade, but maybe not. How is that for conviction, lol?

Surely, Japan cannot continue to tell the world that foreigners are dirty with covid and need to be thoroughly checked before entering. It is just so negative to peoples' view of Japan. Years and years of good image, down the drain.

Sorry, but the need to produce a negative PCR test result applies to Japanese nationals as well.

You shall not test, you shall not find...this should be the Japanese buzzword for 2021.

The only that matters is "infected people hospitalized with severe symptoms in Tokyo is two."

It REALLY is that simple.
