That was my experience: https://www.retirejapan.com/blog/talkin ... -in-japan/

They were puzzled as to why we might not want to spend down our savings/investments until we were eligible for nenkin, then live off that :?
I mean, I suppose in a capitalist society that depends on spending and consumption to prop ever increasing growth that we're just bad actors by not spending willy nilly :mrgreen:
