YES!
And when I come back, I'll be bringing a whole crew from Georgia with me...
we want to take over the place. Japan is where the hot ex-pat chicks go!!! (No offense to female ex-pats in Korea ya'll know I'm just saying this to raz the guys...and I'm talking about my cool friends, not me.)
Another good thread, Tiger Beer.

EDIT: Tiger Beer, your interests seem eclectic enough to land you in places like Brazil, Singapore, or Japan, so why are you in Korea? Korea seems like it would be okay for you for a short while, but long term?

No.

I like having money without the bothersome need for a suit.

Of course! What kind of a question is that - who would not want to live in Japan?

Been there. done that. Gone back and forth for years. Will eventually go there to settle down with a hot friend of mine and open our own business (a second business for her).

I would consider moving there with my Korean wife if she wants to be a stay-at-home Mom and I get offered a truly awesome job in Tokyo or Osaka.

Very badly! I had planned on moving there next year, but do to the high cost of living and expensive tuition I've opted for Shanghai instead. I definitely see myself living there eventually. Maybe in about 4 years.

The question was 'Do you want to live in Japan', not 'Do you want to teach in Japan'.
