The news said Japan's economy is booming 📈 — but living an ordinary life, it doesn't quite feel that way, does it?<br>So today I checked the "boom" against my own shopping basket 🛒 A small watermelon, a cold Kirin, hiyashi chuka for summer 🍉🍺<br>I can't choose the economy — but I can choose what I spend on, and what makes me happy 🌸<br><br>I wrote it on my tanzaku too — may your economy get better as well 🎋✨<br>I read every comment even if I can't reply to all of them — thank you so much 😊<br>— Rin

I’m from Arizona, USA and it rains about 4-5times a year here. When I recently visited Osaka/Tokyo it rained every other day and I loved it! Rain truly is a blessing.

I once heard, "If you don't know what stocks to buy, invest in companies you like instead of just buying their products."<br><br>I love Nike shoes, so I checked out a Nike store—it was packed. Adidas and Under Armour stores had way fewer customers. So I loaded up on Nike stock a few years ago.<br><br>Now I'm down about 70%. 😂
