As said above, I want a realistic timeline of my plan to move to japan eventually, at the moment I'm working on getting either an associate's degree in teaching, and work my way to a bachelor's degree *eventually* I've done some research on LETs and the JET programs in japan, and want to use teaching english as a stepping stone to get a foothold in japan, probably start my own business one day, I've read that it's possible but somewhat costly.
For context, at the moment I've worked for atleast a year and a half, to attempt and save up for college education, Not easy given that I live in the Philippines, Made poor life decisions, and would love to turn things around. I am fully aware that 80% of this might just be wishful thinking. For Funding, I also have land that I'm going to receive at the end of May (it's a farm and fishpond) and plan to use that as disposable income in-order to fund my studies...
But what would a realistic timeline be?
My original Idea was to get an associates degree in teaching, get some experience, get my bachelor's then worry about getting to japan.
I'm not under the illusion that this idea will be easy, but I do want to live SOME part of my life in Japan, I don't know If i plan to retire there, or a different country, but a Dead beat college drop out can try right?
