I heard they make 0.5 million yen per year. Wow! Anyone has any intelligent thoughts on that?

Well, 0,5 million yen a year is a normal salary so it wouldn't surprise me at all if they do.

They're not salaried, they're paid per commission. Usually about $300-500 per DVD (higher or lower, depending on label and the girl's fame).

Also, ¥500,000/yr is pretty low even by part-time standards. Full time salaries start off at ¥200,000/mo (=¥2.4mil/yr). Even part time at ¥2000/hr, 10hrs/wk comes close to a full ¥1mil/yr.

Of course, many girls don't do JAV for a living, they simply want easy cash for lifestyle things (bags, clothes, vacation trips, etc).

WOW, apparently I didn't know this whole "yen" thing. 0.5 million is a lot of money in US dollars.

At current trading, ¥500,000 comes to about US$4700. It's plenty if you're only using it to buy non-essentials, but if you have to pay living expenses (rent, bills, food, travel), it'll last about 2, maybe 3 months.

I read from Wiki Maria Ozawa is making at least US$8,000 per month.
But then, she is one of the top few stars in the industry.

Yes, now that I see this again I have no idea at all how I could have thought 0,5 million yen a year was normal, I blame it on lack of sleep. :)

I must have thought of 5 million yen or something, my bad, hehe.

It's not like they go to 'work' every day.
.5 million is not much at all for a regular salary, but it's good money since the work they do isn't much more than a couple of hours over a day or two every now and then.
It's mostly just for that extra cash that helps you getting by or to have an easier life.

I'm sure they don't go to "work" every day.

But you still have to eat every day, and have somewhere to sleep every night. :goodboy:

Where does she work to get the rest(bills, food,etc.)?
In the Eastern Asia, people have bold prejudice toward the girls in this business

I hope she doesn't have to work much, $8, 000 is barely higher than the average where I live...

You can live fairly well of it in Japan I guess, but you're not rich exactly...

well, in the US, 8,000 dollars a month isn't really alot. my father makes well over 10,000 dollars per month, even without year end bonuses he gets. he is a investment banker of course

Really? they do? From the way women were treated in those asian sm videos one would have inferred that those women were so loved so much by the population

Well, they're loved by the people who watch them. In secret.
Though publicly, if the topic comes up in a conversation, I'm sure they'd join in on the bashing too.

They, and the Japanese AV industry as a whole, make enough for there to be an off-shoot AV variety show.

I watched the second one, and the lyrics were hysterical. I can't believe that's on TV, but I'm guessing it's cable-only?

I'm so jealous of your fuckers who can understand the language. The last clip looked hilarious.

btw who is the older lady in those clips?
