I have another question, is it good to start young? I'm 17 and I want to teach and work in Japan. But I feel like maby I'm rushing things, that I don't need to plan so far ahead. But I'm super afraid of....y'know, not making it. Becouse I come from a really low income family. I can't just pay my way there, I feel like I have to be better than the next guy to go.

I know that was a real trip away from my original question but it feels nice to have that off my chest.

I was 22 when I went on JET, and even now that feels a little too young to me. I wasn't very responsible with money, and didn't save nearly as much as I should have (but came home with some great toys and some interesting stories).
