I don’t obsess over Japanese culture like so many weabs on the internet, their grind culture is insane, but I have mad respect for their CEO’s when it comes to taking accountability. Why are so many other nation’s CEOs so selfish? Why do they need to make more money than they already have?

Because Japan has a culture of honor.

The rest of the world is built around opportunity.

It's why Japanese companies made better products than everyone else for so long. They actually cared about what they did and raised standards for everyone else.

because their investors expect them to. Welcome to capitalism and building shit with borrowed money.
