Financial Planning Service in English

for  

Foreigners  and  International Couples

 

 

Are you a non-native Japanese resident in Japan enjoying your life in this country? That’s great! I love this beautiful country, too. However, there are many challenging issues that come with living in a foreign country, especially regarding financial matters. If you are an International couple, you may also have a lot of questions or problems neither your friends nor family can answer. It can be dangerous if you ask important financial questions to non-experts. So here I am. I am an independent financial planner with more than 20 year experience in Tokyo. 

 Do you have any of following questions?

Financial Planning is not only for wealthy people

 

  •  
  • How I should prepare for my retirement?  How much and how I should save? 
  • Can we afford children in Japan? How much does it cost to raise children in Japan and how much should we save for our children’s Education?
  • Is it a good idea to buy a home in Japan? Should we choose a house or a condominium? How much should we save for a down payment? Could we afford a Mortgage?
  • How much money should I save, and in which currency?
  • Do I really have to pay into the National Pension System and National Health System of Japan? What’s the benefit?
  • What is the best way to save money and build my asset?
  • What kind of Life Insurance should I buy? And from which company?
  • How much does it cost for my child to go to an International School?
  • I’m not sure if we will continue to live in Japan in the future. How should we manage our money and savings?
  • We want to prepare for my Retirement. What kind of things should I consider and what type of savings or Investments should I choose?
  • I have a lot of big and small questions about financial related issues. I want to know the answers to them and want to solve some of my problems.
  • I want a specialist to accompany me to view real estate or go to the bank, especially when I have to make a big decision.
  • I want to make My Dreams Come True in Japan with good financial planning assistance.

    Testimony

     

    Case1  Married Couple in their 30’s.   She: Japanese. He: American

    Theme: How to manage, save, and invest money as a married couple.

    This photo is just for an image, not real clients.

    The reason I decided to get financial planning.

    “I got married some months before and wanted to know how to manage money as a couple. My husband is an American and he understand Japanese but it’s a lot easier for him to talk about financial issues in English. Also I knew Ms. Nakamura wrote this book “Money matters you got to accomplish when you get married”

    The reason I chose this FP, Yoshiko Nakamura

    “Actually this was my 2nd time to be consulted by her. The previous time, I was still single and was struggling to manage my business money and personal money. Her advice was professional, practical and helped me a lot so I’d never thought about consulting other planners.”

    What was the result?

    “I had this vague ideas or worries that I have to make a huge amount of money to live a good life and save enough for our future. However she showed me that my worry comes from the fact that I never had saving plans and practiced them before. She created a cash flow chart for 20 years, which showed us how much we should earn and how much we should save for the future. Also I used to have a kind of negative feeling to have a baby as a hard working career woman but she encouraged me with smile that I can do both with a bit of practical tactics. It changed my view point. My husband was also satisfied with her consultation and said he hadn’t imagined that he could get financial planning service in English in Tokyo. Yes, we are very satisfied and will recommend her consultation for international couples in Tokyo area like us.”
