In Japan, the diet of a man who saved 94 million yen (approximately 850 million won) at the age of 45 has been revealed and is becoming a hot topic.

On Twitter on the 5th, a man with the nickname ‘Absolute Leaving Man’, who posts investment activities and frugal diets, is attracting attention.

The reason this man got attention was on the 18th of last month when he posted a picture on his Twitter account saying ‘today’s dinner’.

He put rice sprinkled with seaweed powder, a pickled plum, and egg rolls on the table and said, “As always, the table is plain, but eggs are a luxury item.” Now, whatever you eat is delicious,” he wrote.

He also showed a frugal life by posting pictures of himself eating meals with shareholder preferential coupons (discount coupons given to shareholders) and eating bread with only butter for three days on Twitter.

The Japanese media ‘Encount’ reported on this man with the contents of “thorough savings and investment of more than 20 years of experience.”

In an interview with the media, the man explained, “I saved about 94.7 million yen mainly through saving, point accumulation, and safety-oriented investments.” .

“Even after saving up money, I did not increase my consumption.” I have a microwave, washing machine and refrigerator, but they are mostly low-end items and the rice cooker is broken.”

Regarding the point that some people are concerned about his health, this man said, “I am getting regular health checkups,” and “I am surprisingly okay because of my very simple eating habits. A frugal diet seems to be healthier than eating extravagant food.”

He also revealed that he is a ‘fire family’ who is interested in early retirement, and said, “The final goal is to add retirement benefits to 100 million yen (about 900 million won).” . As for unavoidable expenses, I lived a so-called ‘zero won life’ using accumulated points.”
