10 Doors to Increasing Life Choices Through Real Estate Investment | Episode 1: The Door of Money
Money does not change your life.
It increases your options.
In your 30s.
Annual income of 6 million yen.
Newlywed.
You have juniors at work,
and your responsibilities have been increasing little by little...
From the outside looking in,
your life is going well🌻
However,
one night.
While relaxing on the sofa,
you are casually looking at your smartphone.
"How much will education costs be when a child is born❓"
"A 35-year mortgage."
The 20 million yen retirement fund problem.
Articles flowing in one after another.
Even if I close my smartphone,
the anxiety in my mind just won't close
It's not that you want money.
A quick question for you.
If you had,
100 million yen in your bank account right now,
what would you do❓
Would you quit your job❓
Would you travel around the world❓
Would you buy a luxury car❓
I'm sure it's something else.
What you truly want,
is not the money itself.
It's the peace of mind that you can protect your family.
The peace of mind that comes with knowing you can take on challenges.
The freedom of being able to choose your own life.
What you really want is...
Not money, but options.
There is a future you cannot see with just your salary.
Being a company employee is a wonderful job‼️
You receive a salary on a fixed day every month,
and you have social insurance.
You also get bonuses.
However,
there is one thing you cannot change.
The fact that your income
comes from only one company.
What if the company's performance declines❓
What if you get sick and can no longer work❓
What if a job transfer reduces your time with your family❓
In that moment,
your life choices will decrease all at once.
The reason you feel anxious
is not because you don't have money🙅
It is the inability to choose that makes us anxious.
When financial anxiety decreases, people can become kinder.
It is a strange thing.
When you are being chased by money,
you have no room in your heart.
You get irritated by small things.
You end up lashing out at your family.
You feel impatient at work, too.
Everyone is the same.
However...
Once a little peace of mind about the future is born,
the scenery changes.
You can enjoy the time you spend playing with your children.
I can listen to my wife at a leisurely pace.
I can genuinely be happy for a colleague's success.
Money is
not something you use to buy happiness.
It is something that cultivates peace of mind.
And that peace of mind
enriches your life.
The "Earners" and the "Savers"
In your 20s,
you only think about earning.
"I want to increase my annual income."
"I want a bigger bonus."
Of course, that is important.
But when you reach your 30s,
you realize something even more important.
No matter how much you earn,
if you spend it all, you have zero.
Conversely,
those who save assets, even a little bit each month,
are the ones paying a salary to their future selves.
Increasing your income is important too.
However, I believe this.
What changes your life is,
creating lasting assets.
Real estate investment is not just about learning about money.
Please do not misunderstand.
This series is not
about "let's make money through real estate investment."
It is not that kind of story.
It is a much bigger story.
By learning about real estate investment,
the way you engage with money will change.
Your perspective on life will change.
The way you choose your future will change.
As a result,
your life itself will change.
That is why,
real estate investment,
is not about studying how to buy properties.
It is about studying how to choose your life.It is.
To you who have opened the first door
If you are currently,
in your 30s,
and even slightly thinking,
"I wonder if it's okay to stay like this in the future."
please cherish that sense of unease.
People whose lives change
are not those with special talents.
"I don't want things to stay this way."
From that small sense of unease,
they are the ones who took a step forward.
Today,
what you have opened
is not the door of money.
It is the first door to choosing your own life.
