I don’t know about Tokyo property prices.  

But they still haven’t recovered from the 90s property bubble in the regions, including the ski areas.  Also they have no appreciation for older buildings.  To the Japanese, any building older than 20 years has zero value and has to be knocked down and rebuilt from scratch.  It doesn’t help they have no fucking clue about basic maintenance.  But a bit of paint and a bathroom refresh can work wonders.  You might have to work out the plumbing yourself because Japanese plumbers are mostly incompetent. 

Gringos don’t have these refined sensibilities and are perfectly willing to stay in a house that was built in 1995.  Stupid gringos.  

Pricing in Japan is fucked.  A bottle of Jim Beam is $9 and an apple is $20.   People focus on the price of apples and not on the price of whisky.  

Stupid lefties trying to shrink the world’s population

You can buy apartments in Japan for $100.  The only downside is you have to live in a massive, completely empty apartment building by yourself and it’s freaky as fuck.  

People buy them to use as ski lodges 1 week per year.  

You can buy freestanding 4 bedroom houses for $10k and rent them out to gringos for $2k per week.  

I am pretty sure Pomerania is a dog breed. 

It’s better than Bi-sterve

Right now the price is a bit overexcited and needs a cup of tea and a lie down.  Zat is all. 

Conga rats Bit serve

No I wasn’t the cunt. It was the other gaijin that tried to cut the line by sneaking along the train line.  Smashed him with a suitcase.  

No you are not allowed to drink in the store.  It’s what’s inside the cans that is the problem.  

Blue curtain is the gents.  Red curtain is the ladies.   I guess you could pay extra for that but it’s not my cup of tea.  

I have been cooking rice horribly wrong my entire life.  Also the rice you can buy in stores in the West is shit.  

The food OMG.  I understood before the trip at an intellectual level that there was more to Japanese cuisine than sushi and curry chicken, but you have to experience it to come to grips at an emotional level.  The variety is insane and it is all so good.  I am now seriously at a loss as to whether Japanese or Vietnamese is the best cuisine in the world.  

Fuck the cunts who stand in the wrong spot for the subway queue.  Those painted lines are there for a reason.  

Don’t drink the highballs in 7-11

Don’t walk through the red curtain

Also, Takoyaki means Octopus balls

Did you try the turbo setting on the water jet?

As if millions of voices suddenly cried out STOP and were suddenly silenced.

Put the same amount of care and attention into choosing a stop location as choosing a wife

Rubbish it’s the 19th of January and we have the halvening this year.  You can’t possibly make a prediction like that  with any sincerity.  

I spent some time in Japan recently and learned that most toilets come with drinking fountains.  This is truly ingenious. 

There’s a good chance this was just a stop hunt and will be back over $9k shortly.

Fuck yes.  Only $2 slippage.  Awesome.  It worked !

Trying to catch up but still a hundred pages behind.  But this got my attention!  

Going to check how much slippage I got on my Bitmex stop.  

We are tracking nicely if a touch high.  All within the margin of error. 

$8001 - $8050

Little baby green candle - let’s go !
