They say that medical doctors are rich in Japan. I don't exactly deny that. My income is above average, but you know, the really rich doctors are the owners of the hospitals. I'm just an employee.
I often have impolite phone calls recently. The condominium dealers make phone calls to me at any time of the day. Not concerned about what I am doing, they call me and advise me of ways to reduce my taxes. They encourage me in an unctuous tone to buy real estate, a halfway decent condominium for tax purposes.
I hate their sales strategy and impoliteness. I asked the telephone exchange operator not to connect their calls.
