Princess Sayako, 36, is the only daughter of the Emperor of Japan and will assume the life of a commoner whe she marries her 40 year old boyfriend, a government worker making about $60K a year, later this week.
The princess will have to learn to drive, shop, cook, and do everything that living in the Imperial Palace for 36 years does not require you to do.
She will get a one time $125 million gift from her family, and then she's on her own. Some dowry huh?
There's one thing she and her boyfriend have in common. They both live at home with their parents. Her fiance, Yoshiki Kuroda, currently lives in a 650 square foot apartment with his mother. Ick.
My advice? Run while you still can girlfriend. Take the money and go have a ball out in the world.
