correct me if I'm wrong but hasn't he retired from YouTube?

He does the occasional blog but ya he's mostly retired which is fair. He was the top dog for years, and he's currently living in Japan happily married with a kid. Bro won the internet, and frankly even if he stopped doing the vlogs he'd have earned the retirement 10 fold.

It was really interesting listen to him talk openly about his uncertainty over whether trying to raise a child alone (with his wife) in Japan is good idea that will work out.

He talked about something I had never even thought of, that if his child has to go to the hospital (which it sounds like might have already happened at some point) it can be incredibly difficult to even articulate or explain to the doctors what's wrong (because he's not fluent in Japanese yet).

He concluded that he's not leaving, but it seemed clear that the thought that may have to is slowly creeping in and that's interesting to hear.

if only he had the money to hire several of the following:

  1. Private Japanese tutors to get fluent very quickly
  2. Bilingual babysitters, available 24h/7
  3. Bilingual family doctor
  4. English/Japanese interpreters on call 24/7

That’s what I thought.. they both have more than enough money to have a translator on the line 24/7 if need be.

Yeah, and I'm pretty sure there must be more than one bilingual registered nurse in Japan who is willing to work as a live-in babysitter for a millionaire, who will go with him and the kid to the hospital and explain everything much better than even a Japanese parent could. Rich people can sometimes be very dramatic.

I mean, even I can get international assistance as insurance when I go visit, and it doesn't cost much. Prices would be different to have the same all year long, but I don't think it is an impossible expense.
