老後2000万
Significado: The controversial claim that Japanese retirees need 20 million yen in savings beyond their pension to live comfortably.
In 2019, a Financial Services Agency report stated that the average retired couple would face a 20 million yen shortfall over 30 years of retirement. The revelation caused a national uproar — people were shocked, angry, and anxious. 老後2000万問題 became a political scandal and a lasting cultural reference point that fundamentally changed how Japanese people think about retirement planning and spurred the NISA/investment boom.
