Into the book
I wanted to live.
I decided to save up money quickly and run away from the company.
So, for me, saving money was the way to survive.
I interpreted working in a black company until retirement as a 40-year prison sentence.
The crime is 'the crime of being born in the employment ice age.'
--- p.9
Let me start with the conclusion.
Saving is the best tranquilizer.
It doesn't have to be exactly 100 million yen.
Even if it's just a few million yen, it can give you some breathing room.
--- p.10
I'm thinking of staying at a hotel that costs 100,000 yen per night.
But that fact can never be leaked.
Of course, you can't post it on social media.
If you break the rules, you will be fined 100,000 yen.
Would you like to stay at that hotel?
--- p.62
At 10 o'clock at night, Sergeant K said,
“It would be too hard if it were like this from the first day.
“Just leave it at that for today.” I couldn’t tell if he was really thinking about it or just pretending.
But judging by the tone of his voice, it really was a signal to go.
So I left work in a hurry.
After thinking about K's tone, I got the feeling that he was giving me special treatment today because I was a newbie.
As I walked back home, I felt afraid of the future that lay ahead.
--- p.101
“This is a 40-year prison sentence.
We're in trouble.
I have to run away.
But then it might be more difficult.
No, that's not important right now.
I have to be at work by 7 o'clock tomorrow morning.
"Is this life going to continue until I'm 60? Am I going to hear that screaming every single day? For 40 years?"
--- p.101
What if you didn't spend a single penny of your salary for a month? Retirement age is 60, but you could still work for the company until you're 59 years and 11 months old.
If I could keep saving money, wouldn't I be able to reduce my 40-year sentence a little?
--- p.103
I am human too, so at times like that, I feel like indulging in a little luxury.
'It's my day off, so should I eat some conveyor belt sushi? Or maybe eat some eel rice bowl to replenish my nutrition?' But I didn't allow myself to do that.
I'm an underground worker who is sentenced to 10 years in prison (or so I'm planning on doing).
The charge was 'the crime of being born in the employment ice age.'
--- p.112
I told myself.
'You dig up dirt and eat it.
Soil is the nutrient that helps us overcome adversity.
'The poor should even dig up dirt and eat it!' With that kind of self-warning, he lived like a goby.
--- p.112
I couldn't even go home, I didn't get any allowance, it was just unbearable.
A culture of imposing excessive workloads on the premise of overtime work and not providing overtime pay has become a given.
Unpaid work without any incentive to work or even a bonus was truly a nightmare.
--- p.128
Securing deposit capacity through savings and making stable investments with low risk are most important.
Even if it seems like a long way to go, don't be impatient. Just take one step forward each day.
--- p.166
The ultimate goal of early retirement is to be free from stress.
So I wanted to eliminate any stress factors, no matter how minor.
--- p.173
In the second half, assets increased almost in a straight line because there were no risky investments.
After all, it is best to invest safely and save regularly.
Because I felt deep down that a single misjudgment could wipe out years of hard work.
If you don't take excessive risks, you can steadily reach your goals, even if it means slowing down.
--- p.180
Until now, I have only focused on saving money.
On this day, after reaching 100 million yen, I looked back for the first time.
I remembered myself in my younger days.
I felt an indescribable gratitude towards my younger self.

Publisher's Review
If you are anxious now, the reason is
Because the balance in the bank account is insufficient
'It's hard to go to work, but I don't have money to quit.' This is the worry that most office workers have.
We often blame our bosses or business partners for our stress.
But if we look at it objectively, the root of the anxiety is ‘economic instability.’
A long-time employee at a black company who never quit realized this truth from the first day he started working there, and from that day on, he started saving money.
The most realistic way to reduce anxiety is to fill your bank account balance.
Even billions aren't enough to become a Fire Tribe member?
Wrong, there are only 4 fire conditions.
People who don't know much about money say that you need billions to start a fire.
This is a false claim.
The author determines the success of the FIRE tribe based on just four factors: ① operating profit, ② monthly expenses, ③ initial capital, and ④ retirement period.
If you set your own fire plan, not based on other people's standards, you can even quit your job permanently.
The rich accumulate small profits steadily with big money.
A person who aims for a big profit with a small amount of money
Even the author, who now manages his assets in a very stable manner, once made a series of foolish investments, such as going all-in on a specific company or making excessive FX investments in a specific country's currency.
After repeated failures, he reflected deeply and shifted his focus to ultra-stable asset management that minimized risk.
He concluded that what matters in investing is not speed, but the power to never stop.
The Joy of Saving Money, as Told by a Never-Quit Man
Now you can too
Some say:
Saving money is fun.
But for most people, saving is more of a pain to endure.
The author broke that stereotype by saying, "Even if you save it while crying, you still get 1 billion won, and even if you save it while smiling, you still get 1 billion won."
I saved money in simple but realistic ways that anyone can follow, such as eating a simple diet centered around scrambled eggs and natto, creating fake money in the amount of money I wanted, and cooking rice with empty milk cartons instead of buying a rice cooker.
That you can live happily even if you save money without spending it.
This is the biggest message that the absolute quitter leaves to the readers.
