How my daughter's Junior NISA helps reduce our family's entertainment expenses.
"Shareholder perks are just for rich people, right?"
That's what I used to think.
But once I actually started using them,
“Investing is a mechanism to lower living costs”
is what I realized.
This time, I used the "Owner's Card," a shareholder perk from the Aeon stock my daughter holds in her Junior NISA, to go to Aeon Cinema with my eldest son.
Honestly,
"This alone might make holding the stock worth it..."
is the level I felt at.
Aeon stock held in Junior NISA
Since I hold Aeon stock in my daughter's name,
・An Owner's Card for the account holder
・A family card
I receive these two cards.
My daughter didn't go to the movies this time, so
I used the family card to go watch a movie with my eldest son.
At this point,
"Building assets for my child's future while also saving on current living expenses"
is a mysterious state of affairs (lol).
Actually using it at Aeon Cinema
The movie perk for the Aeon Owner's Card is quite powerful.
At regular prices,
Adult: 1,800 yen
Child: 1,000 yen
but,
by using the Owner's Card,
Adult: 1,000 yen
Child: 800 yen
it becomes. (Aeon Cinema)
What surprised me even more was,
a small popcorn or drink is free.
This time, of course, we chose the popcorn (lol).
I believe it was around the 500 yen range,
but that was also free.

How much did we actually save?
At regular prices,
Adult: 1,800 yen
Child: 1,000 yen
Total: 2,800 yen
Using the Owner's Card,
Adult: 1,000 yen
Child: 800 yen
Total: 1,800 yen
If you add the cost of popcorn (around 530 yen) to this,
it effectively feels like
we are saving nearly 1,500 yen.
Even for just one movie, it makes this much of a difference.
And for a family that loves movies,
this adds up over time.
It's not just the movie perks. You also get dividends.
Actually, the appeal of Aeon stock
is not just the shareholder benefits.
Naturally,
you also receive dividends for holding the stock.
In other words,
・Movies become cheaper
・You get cashback on shopping
・You can use the Aeon Lounge
・You also receive dividends
making it,
truly a stock that benefits you while you use it.
In our family's case, since our eldest daughter holds it in her Junior NISA,
we are building assets for the future
while enjoying the shareholder benefits at the same time.
Moreover, dividends are
a system where you receive money just by holding the stock.
While enjoying watching movies,
You can even receive dividends.
When you think about it this way,
it's not just about saving on entertainment costs,
but truly an experience of
having money work for you.
In fact, Aeon also pays dividends to shareholders, and their official website states that you can receive "dividends and shareholder benefits twice a year."
Investing isn't just about "growing your money."
Many people
think of investing only in terms of
whether the stock price goes up or down.
But in reality, it's different.
Through shareholder benefits,
you can lower your daily fixed costs and entertainment expenses.
In other words,
you can reduce your actual cost of living.
This is also a legitimate investment return.
Especially with Aeon,
it's not just about movies.
Since you can also benefit from everyday shopping,
I feel it's a stock that is particularly well-suited for families.
Summary
What I realized again this time is,
that "shareholder perks are actually very satisfying when you use them."
That is all.
I was able to enjoy a movie with my eldest son,
the cost was lower,
and even the popcorn was free.
I felt that accumulating these small moments of happiness
is kind to both our household budget and our peace of mind.
