I hope we all know that it doesn't matter who is in the 'top job' because this is a systemic problem - greed. We have allowed many of our economic sectors, to take advantage of the American people. It's disgusting and frightening for the future of our country. My wife and I will be retiring in the next two years n another country. We are absolutely worried that SSI will no longer be funded. we'll have to rely on his pension, a 403 (b) and a very prolific Investment account with my Tracy Britt Cool Consulting my FA. Our national debt is bloating and expanding every month. Our government needs to get spending under control and cut the federal budget.
I'm 56 and my wife and I are VERY worried about our future, gas and food prices rising daily. We have had our savings dwindle with the cost of living into the stratosphere, and we are finding it impossible to replace them. We can get by, but can't seem to get ahead. My condolences to anyone retiring in this crisis, 30 years nonstop just for a crooked system to take all you worked for.
I feel your pain mate, as a fellow retiree, I'd suggest you look into passive index fund investing and learn some more. For me, I had my share of ups and downs when I first started looking for a consistent passive income so I hired an expert advisor for aid, and following her advice, I poured $30k in value stocks and digital assets, Up to 200k so far and pretty sure I'm ready for whatever comes.
In the 80's my Dad worked a modest job, Mom stayed at home and raised the kids, and they lived a nice middle class lifestyle including owning a home. Nowadays both I and my partner works and can barely afford to make ends meet. Soon the kids and family dog will need to work to keep this household going. It's the destruction of the American dream right before our eyes.
If you are not in the financial market space right now, you are making a huge mistake. I understand that it could be due to ignorance, but if you want to make your money work for you...prevent inflation
I went from no money to Invest with to busting my A** off on Uber eats for four months to raise about $20k to start trading with Tracy Britt Cool Consulting. I am at $128k right now and LOVING that you have to bring this up here
This is my favorite video you've ever done. I always wanted to try making models but there are so many pieces and I didn't know what to do. Thanks my friend 50 year old Japanese man.
Looks delicious, LOL! I love yr pure joy at creating something that you are proud of...your vids make me feel so thankful that there are people like you in the world.💞🙏💅
You remind me of this older version of a Japanese foreign exchange student that hung out with my brother in USA his name was Daiki such a cool dude really humble guy very polite and funny! Miss that dude!
This is almost like LEGO, but not LEGO. This reminds me of those plastic cars that you buy and its just pieces and you need to glue everything together.
Japan somehow not even the worst offender for this. But you’ll see they use plastic in everything. If you buy a bag of cookies or candy, the individual snacks will be in their own plastic wrapper too
@@justanobody0 ya I was pretty confused by it. They sort their trash by combustible and non combustible. Plastic is the latter but no idea how they sort it when everything that’s non combustible is mixed in with it
Japanese modelkit building is my biggest hobby, hobbies are not meaningless if you have fun with it . Bandai ,kotobukia and goodsmile company make the best modelkits in my opinion .
I’m a 49 yrs old Asian Canadian living in french Quebec . I’m single , alone and lost it all even my dog this year . I lost my 1.2 mil house during covid and lost all my $ (ex trader ) Although I’m a suicide survivor as well , I also survived a heart attack and flatlined . Sometimes I pray for God to take my life sooner than later ……I’m still here going through a midlife crises and life crises ….recently baptized. Video reminds me of how much more fortunate others are and how blind the world is ….its all about perspective Be grateful and humble , tomorrow is not promised . I used to feel sorry for you and even donated …but like the hawk tuah girl , Enjoy your 15 mins of UA-cam fame and maybe more ….🙏🏼❤🩹 ps: Philippians 4:13 “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” 🙏❤🔥
rice and roe came out quicker and easier than expected but it was still crazy. Couldn't envision how any of this was going to assemble but 50-year-old Japanese man 🤌
Surely no one has ever got and has done UA-cam this well before? Nor surely will they ever again? We are living in VERY exciting times here people. Pointless people are watching other pointless people doing pointless things. That's not just peak UA-cam - it's peak human! (Other than Scotch whisky maybe. I like that too.)
My only concern is whether or not 50 years old Japanese man will be still be 50 years old come January 1st of 2025. What if he's actually 51 or 52 and has just been rounding down for consistency's sake? What happens when he turns 57 or 58? Will he round up to 60 Years Old Japanese Man?
I'll be in a conundrum bc I won't be able to go on living w/o him. I love the guy. But he'll be lying to us which is going to hurt bad if most everything he says about his depression is or isn't a lie. I still love what he's created.
You have about two months left to call yourself 50 years old Japanese man. If you are still referring to yourself as 50 years old Japanese man come January 1st, then we will have questions.
This guy may have found his calling as a sushi chef. I would go to his sushi bar and I would order a bunch of different rolls, nigiri, etc. and I would have no problem if they were rolled too loose or if they fell apart too easily. Please let us know if this happens.
If these simple little things like this and what meals he eats brings this man happiness then so be it im glad to see it just watch the blood pressure and your blood sugar Japanese man also cholesterol but maybe try a healthier choice of meal.😂✌️🇺🇲🇯🇵
I want to share a scripture from the Bible, Isaiah chapter 43 verse 2. “When you pass through the waters, I will be with you, and through the rivers, they will not overwhelm you, when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you.”
Life is exhausting. Dumb little joys are all we get. Pick up any new manga magazines? I'm thinking of getting into Jojo's Bizarre Adventure ジョジョの奇妙な冒険.
This is insane. You have kids. Why are you not spending precious time with them? Don’t be an idiot. Love your family. It’s the most important thing you’ve done.
Kind of wish I was a 50 year old Japanese man right now. Does anywhere sell these model kits internationally and is there a tonkotsu ramen one I could buy?
That was cool but why not make a real one and give to your wife as a sweetheart gift or to yourself as a treat. Still, that was fun. Do you like to do puzzles?
When you are 50 year old Japanese man, facing a midlife crisis, and you realize there isn’t much time left, it’s best to use your last precious moments making plastic sushi models. 🍥
Even rich can have crisis. Even famous actors! Crisis isn't reserved for the poor. It's a human phenomenon. Meaning you only have to be human to experience it. Everyone's in the club 😊.
@@Bob-l7m2g the author’s initial videos series were all about crisis related to his financial situations. With the size of his channel I don’t think that’s a continuing problem for him. I just don’t want to think he’s using midlife crisis as a click bait.
If it brings joy, it is far from meaningless
So true friend
Exactly
well he's in the clickbait business so take negative things he says with a grain of salt
He wants your clicks, not your advice. If he did take our advice, his wife might take him back but he doesn't care.

This video goes well with my crippling depression

Stumbled upon your videos while having a lot of anxiety, and it helped me feel better. Thanks!
❤❤❤ Askjapan you are the best at sharing reality.. love yr channel
I just reached nirvana watching this and my third eye has opened
Really? Jealous.

mr askjapan my beloved
A master piece Japanese man. Nicely done.
Always wear gloves with super glue, that stuff is really bad for your hands!
This is my favorite video you've ever done. I always wanted to try making models but there are so many pieces and I didn't know what to do. Thanks my friend 50 year old Japanese man.
This is my #1 channel for when I’m stoned or smoking! 🌳 💨
Well I guess you don't know about the channel, The Why Files. Its my goto when I'm baked. Or the other channel Rhett And Link Wonder Hole.
@soulfreegamingSFG heck yea, Why Files!
It's makes my happy knowing I'm not alone in my youtube algorithm.
I just smoked and watching this while eating onion rings
That's bird (turkey for Thanksgiving) flockin awesome this dudes voice n mannerisms is sooo calming 👌 I love him.
If it makes you feel happy, it is not useless. It is not a total waste of time.
this man gets more handsome every week, he's living the life
Is there still a rice shortage 50yr old mid life meaningless crisis samurai Japanese man?
You are amazing! Long time fan! Your future is bright!
Back to good videos that aren't just doom and gloom. This is what we all come here for. Please more videos like this. 👍

Sweden makes very good porn. Congratulations my boy.
Solomon was very wise.
Great job.
Nice video 💯
This is almost like LEGO, but not LEGO. This reminds me of those plastic cars that you buy and its just pieces and you need to glue everything together.
this was pretty fun to watch actually
Lots of little pieces of plastic that can end up in the ocean
Not if he doesn't throw it in the ocean.
@@buraddorun3043 what about the person after him…and the person after that and so on…the first plastic bag ever made is still out there somewhere…
Japan somehow not even the worst offender for this. But you’ll see they use plastic in everything. If you buy a bag of cookies or candy, the individual snacks will be in their own plastic wrapper too
@@spicy_xinger I've heard Japan has a more complex recycling system than North America, and that they take recycling seriously
@@justanobody0 ya I was pretty confused by it. They sort their trash by combustible and non combustible. Plastic is the latter but no idea how they sort it when everything that’s non combustible is mixed in with it
Well done.
There are people who lay in bed all day doing nothing. At least your putting something together.
I cant tell by the sounds if hes playing with beads or wearing his virtual headset again 😂😂

Good one you got him on that one. 👏
@@jonbourgoin182 We'll know he's immortal and stopped aging at 50!
Why? The first video with 50 in title was around 7 months ago.
@@steveday1622did he though?
I felt like that intro was the perfect explanation of the videos I watch on UA-cam
Nice 50 yo beard.
Per your vid, life’s happiness are comprised of the little moments. Revel in them.
Оце хороша річ + глибокі приємні звуки. Це непоганий напрямок контенту: хендмейд + розповіді. Дуже хороший напрямок.
The packaging graphic design is interesting
Nothing is meaningless my friend, it all flows in the ether.

Amazing! =D
For no reason you bring such happiness. 😂
ah, you are a Buddhist philosopher, meditation brings joy!
It keeps your mind occupied and distract you from the trouble of your life
this model is insane... just when i thought wtf when i saw gachapon machine in akiba with miniature wheelchair inside.
I counted them 4 times and there are only 174 grains of rice. Not all of the rows have the same number of rice.
wtf am I watching and why in the middle of the night???
His videos relax you and get you ready for sleep. Which is cool because most of us watch him for the same reason
Do you like it? Does it make you happy? Then it's not meaningless.
If these simple little things like this and what meals he eats brings this man happiness then so be it im glad to see it just watch the blood pressure and your blood sugar Japanese man also cholesterol but maybe try a healthier choice of meal.😂✌️🇺🇲🇯🇵
In Tokyo Sky Tree Mall there is a store that has nothing but fake food. I thought about getting some.
So meaningless, i love it!
We find meaning in our own lives in different ways. There is nothing meaningless if you yourself can find enjoyment and meaning in it.
S-tier 50 years old Japanese man video
Make sure your kids don't eat it
I want to share a scripture from the Bible, Isaiah chapter 43 verse 2.
“When you pass through the waters, I will be with you, and through the rivers, they will not overwhelm you, when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you.”
😂🤩 it's actually nice for big children to play cooking sushi with all those grains of rice.
Wonderful, meaningless, complete waste of time is the realest description of the sushi
This was ASMR without the annoying whispering. For all you amateurs, just because you whisper doesn't make it ASMR, the content is ¾ of it.
it would have been simpler to put a base of rice in the circle then cover with glue then a new layer of rice etc...
This is what the world needs more of. Less screens, more fake sushi. Made from recycled plastic bottles.
Life is exhausting. Dumb little joys are all we get. Pick up any new manga magazines? I'm thinking of getting into Jojo's Bizarre Adventure ジョジョの奇妙な冒険.
First! I always like this in the morning lol
Read Nietzsche.
Is good?
Read a book on your commute if you aren't working on your youtube page aniki san sensei sama 😉 .
@@askjapan9669 yes.
Another good video
Big ups
This is insane. You have kids. Why are you not spending precious time with them? Don’t be an idiot. Love your family. It’s the most important thing you’ve done.
Many disagree with the dribble you just wrote.. go read the comments.. yr in the minority… Askjapan for the win
Kind of wish I was a 50 year old Japanese man right now.
Does anywhere sell these model kits internationally and is there a tonkotsu ramen one I could buy?
To me it looks like you put the nori together inside out!
Release the rice from its plastic prison! :D
🍚Could also do roe on one side and ricecnext to it, on the other side, no??🍱
This video is brought to you by the word "無"!
We care about you. Please never forget that.
I never forget about that
@@askjapan9669 GOOD!
😂 I like the so annoying part 😊
Hi daddy. I like your voice
That was cool but why not make a real one and give to your wife as a sweetheart gift or to yourself as a treat. Still, that was fun. Do you like to do puzzles?
Meaningless things are what we live for. Japan has a lot of very cool meaningless things. Thats why Japan is a so sugoi. !!! HahAHA.!!!
We love those.

Uncanny!!!!❤
This is a weird looking mobile suit mr japan
Where is the video today?? I’m waiting for my daily video bahahahaha
In Russian language it is also have name eakra!
How much do you make money from UA-cam?
Of course he does, why else do you think people record videos and put them online… just for fun lol
❤
Talk about how you hate your family again, this is getting boring.
Same here man😂
This guy is hilarious...😂
1:22
this guy quit his job to be a youtuber and it shows in everything he snacks on for free. lol
Not real, not A.I. 😂
Play more retro vidya
