- skhr0680 4y agoThe average wage in Japan is roughly twice as much as then, so about 200k in today's money
- samatman 4y agoNot a bad Fermi estimate, but even in Japan they're paying more for housing and health care than they did in the 80s, I'd call it 150k. A sibling comment of yours did what's presumably a straight CPI conversion to ~130K, so this is kind of cheating, but napkin math is a good habit to keep fresh.
