I’m also in Tokyo and happy to say that I’ve seen the culture of overtime work changing even over the last 5 years. Young people don’t want to do it. Companies that don’t allow it are more loved by the people https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-07-12/itochu-overtime-ban-offers-solutions-for-japan-birthrate-decline

And there’s also the rise of remote/hybrid/flex work that many people don’t want to go back from

Japan is changing and I’m very optimistic about its future!

It’s a fucking travesty that Australia can’t do public housing like Singapore’s HDB/CPF, how can people be expected to do anything when their basic needs are not being met 😭 like a roof over your head, what?

  • The mobile app is OK, mostly use it for getting a one time password only.
  • Two free withdrawals per month at ATMs, it’s enough for me because of paying for most things with a credit card in order to maximize rewards
  • Free perks… not sure, but it’s one of the big banks so it’s pretty much guaranteed that other services integrates with it, for example SBI (can transfer instantly) as Moneytree

I don’t have much to say, I’m just so happy I found this community in the fediverse and hoping to see more content here 🙂

Been pretty happy with SMBC (NOT Prestia).
