Husband (30M) and I (31F) are moving to Japan in ~5 years (currently taking care of my 95 year old grandmother who is in great shape. Maybe even more than 5 years at this rate!) and I'm stuck in an upper management position at a job with no further upward mobility or pay increases. I've already worked there for 7 years, and have a BA in History and minor in Single Subject Teacher Prep (so I could get my teaching credential more easily if needed).
I'm literally down to do anything. I'll teach, work business, brew beer, hell I'll literally do anything. I just want to set myself up with these next 5 years to be hire-able in Japan, such that I can move and afford to live there.
If you had 5 years, knowing what you know, what would you do? Get a masters? Different BA? Put in a few years at a different company? Ride out my loyalty at my current one? I'd love to hear your thoughts!
