Top 5% Salary, Still in a Tiny Tokyo Apartment

I make a “top 5%” salary in Japan — but my family of four still lives in a tiny Tokyo apartment.
This vlog shows the real side of working and raising kids in one of the world’s most expensive cities.

It’s not luxury. It’s life.
Our small home, messy rooms, packed trains, and simple meals tell a truth that money alone can’t hide.

🎥 Scenes:
Morning routine in a small apartment
Commuting in crowded Tokyo trains
Lunch near the office
Evening at home: family dinner and cluttered living room
