Well, I can testify that Boston isn't exactly a cheap city to live in. 
and I guess Japan should be crossed out as a retirement destination.

The World's Most Expensive Cities 2010
1. Tokyo
2. Oslo
3. Luanda
4. Nagoya
5. Yokohama
6. Stavanger
7. Kobe
8. Copenhagen
9. Geneva
10. Zurich |
It freaked me out how expensive it was there. We had a medical emergency for a few days and had to take $75+ cab rides back and forth to the hospital which was not far away at all. It was rather terrifying.

| Quote: | Ex-hot dog eating champion Takeru Kobayashi held in US
Former hot dog speed-eating champion Takeru Kobayashi has been arrested at this year's event in New York.
The six-time champion, who did not compete in this year's event, was arrested as he tried to get on the stage after the competition.
Mr Kobayashi had refused to sign a contract with the speed-eating body Major League Eating and was barred from the event at Coney Island.
Joey "Jaws" Chestnut won the contest for the fourth year running.
Mr Kobayashi, the thin Japanese contender who smashed all previous US records in 2001, jumped a barrier and tried to get up on the stage while the crowd chanted: "Let him eat!"
'Tsunami'
The 32-year-old has been charged with resisting arrest, trespass and obstructing governmental administration.
Mr Kobayashi, nicknamed "The Tsunami", had written on his Japanese-languange blog that he didn't want to sign a contract that would prevent him from entering speed eating competitions run by other federations.
Mr Chestnut, 26, won this year's annual Nathan's Famous International Hot Dog Eating Contest, winning a mustard yellow belt and the $20,000 first prize.
But his winning score of 58 hot dogs failed to beat his previous record of 68.
In a post-eat interview he reportedly said "if [Kobayashi] was a man he'd be up on stage", provoking Mr Kobayashi, who has been his main rival for the best part of a decade, the news agency Agence-France Presse reported.
The competition has become an Independence Day tradition. |

NY police find live cat 'marinating' in car trunk
The Associated Press
Tuesday, August 10, 2010 9:31 PM EDT
BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) — Police say a traffic stop led to animal cruelty charges after they found a live cat "marinating" in oil and peppers in the trunk of a car.
Buffalo police say officers heard the cat meowing when they stopped 51-year-old Gary Korkuc of Cheektowaga to ticket him for running a stop sign Sunday night.
They say they checked the trunk and found 4-year-old Navarro in a cage, his fur covered with oil, crushed red peppers and chili peppers.
Police say Korkuc told them he did it because Navarro was ill-tempered. Korkuc was charged with cruelty and released; his phone number isn't listed.
Police say he told them he was going to cook Navarro. Korkuc also told officers a number of things that didn't make sense, including that his neutered male cat was pregnant.
Animal advocates have cleaned Navarro and put him up for adoption.
