Over the years, Suzuki has lived very exciting. To provide electricity, the air conditioner rarely use. He walked or rode a bike whenever he traveled, and never eaten in a restaurant. Even after marrying a colleague who knows his personality, their lives remained simple. The spare time of their families was often hiking in the nearby gardens. If they travel to another place, Suzuki will choose the cheapest way.

He did not buy a house or a car. Thanks to his efforts, Suzuki accumulated 35 million yen ($ 240,000 or 2.13 rupees). When he reached 60 years old, part of his pension fund withdrew for investment, and he is now said to have 65 million yen assets (about 440,000 USD or 3.90 rupees).

Suzuki said: “This money is a guarantee of emergency situations and my subsequent life.”

However, after his retirement, the tragedy was struck. His wife was diagnosed with serious illness and died at the age of 66. Her death, Suzuki, left to think about the life she chose.

He said: “I wish my wife and I enjoyed more travel and eat in restaurants.” “But it is not possible to go back. What is the meaning of life with money only?”

Suzuki’s story is not unique. Last year, another man, 45 years old, gained interest to live in a stronger manner for more than 20 years before finally provided 135 million yen (about 910,000 USD or 8.04 rupees). His meals were often just a sour peach, some salted vegetables, a bowl of rice. Sometimes, dinner consists only of the power drink it has using free points of stores.
