The typical Japanese household earned US$4,850 a month in 2013. Total income, however, was $9,250.
How’s that again?
Withdrawal of deposits: $3.200 (the penny, er, yen drops)
Insurances, pensions, loans, property sales, etc makes up the rest.
So, where does the money go?
Food, 7%
Home, 6%
Transport & Communications, 5%
Fun and games, 3%
Taxes, 9%
Insurance, 11%
Savings, 40% (that one really surprised me)
Household spending, adjusted for the number of people living in the home, is about 5% lower than in the early 1990s. That’s about 0.5% deflation every year.
