I used to spend ¥500,000 on a camera and lens. Now I record this podcast with a tiny action camera. 📷 In this episode, I talk about 3 things I stopped buying: expensive cameras, furniture, and expensive clothes. Why did I stop?

What was the biggest mistake I made as a new freelancer in Japan? 😅 It was so bad that I almost lost my client.

What is it really like to make a living from music in Japan? 🎸 In Part 1, I talk about my 20s playing in a band in Tokyo: why a show with 20 people can still lose money, how streaming, merch and royalties actually pay, and how money can split a band apart. Then I share how I moved into composing, my first real freelance work. Natural Japanese around N3-N2. 👇Learn N5 Immersion Program https://www.okkeijapanese.com/n5-program/
