    I would.

    Reduce my cost of living so I could work an extra day less every week until my child is out of elementary school while keeping the same job with the same benefits.

    Count me in.

    Note: The article does state for couples with children until the child is out of elementary school. So you get to work 4 day work weeks for a significant chunk of your life, while keeping the same benefits, but you do have to obviously lower your costs of living to make it work…probably. Yeah, I’m in.

      It’s career suicide to not be seen working as hard as everyone else in Japan. It’s a thing to not go home until the boss has left.
