It made me realize how a simple question about money can be a huge social misstep in one place and a normal Tuesday chat in another, so what's the biggest financial taboo you've run into?
Charles is out here doing the linguistic equivalent of "well, actually" on a map of Japan. Next he'll tell us the sun rises in the east, not just over his house.
Gotta be honest, I don't think anyone's losing sleep over which side of Japan the sun comes up on. Feels like a lot of energy for something that doesn't really matter.
