その常識、本当に必要？｜“一生に一度”に流されない生き方

Are you letting yourself be swept away by societal norms, leading to wasted money and increased stress? This time, I'll discuss not immediately jumping on trends, not being swayed by phrases like "it's a once-in-a-lifetime event," and choosing what you and your family truly need, sharing my own thoughts on marriage, receptions, wedding furniture, and funerals. This isn't just about saving money. I believe that by questioning societal norms, we can reduce not only unnecessary spending but also unnecessary vanity, pointless social obligations, and unnecessary stress. "Everyone's doing it," "That's the normal way," "It's a once-in-a-lifetime event," When you hear these things, it's crucial to stop and think. This video is for those who want to choose their own life based on their own values, not those of others.
