Kombinatsiya: Here’s the thing, the fish is an investment with with rapid yield(in comparison to children)while children obviously take much more time to nurture with more uncertain chances of yield(due to the uncertainty of the job market for gen z); with that mentioned, even if I am an investment that’s a little more “iffy”(in terms of yield), the long term benefits of investing* in your children will pay off in a Chinese/Asian family dynamic.

So your statement of making me sound like a failed investment really isn’t well thought out. *it’s been shown - especially in terms of Asian success in the US job market - the amount of money spent on prep combined with the tiger parenting of Asian parents aids with improving the chances of Asians in finding successful careers; hence the reason why the Asian minority in the US has more people with high paying jobs, relative to other minorities(which also happened to give Asians an inaccurate title of the “model minority”).
once, I went on a trip with my church's Youth group to Coldwater Creek Gardens, and they had a greenhouse with koi swimming in these water tanks you could walk over and peek in. And the koi would poke their heads out, and let you pet them. Never thought a fish'd let you pet it!
That's cool! I'd love to pet one if I've got the chance but I'm afraid I'll hurt the fish because human body temperature is higher than fish. Not to mention my palms are pretty warm.
Well, he won 11 times in 21 year. It only shows how good he is. For example, if Arnold Schwarzenegger has won Mr.Olympia 6 years in a row it doesn't mean that was easy to do and there was no competition. =)

I see no difference in spending that amount of money in uselessly overpriced cars, houses that are only inhabitet a few days a year, owning mutiple cars and so on. Yes of course it seems strange but a million doller koi is still better than the other things I listed because it isnt pumping CO2 in the atmosohere in the amounts a yacht or multiple cars do.
I agree with the second comment. But it’s so sad that the lifespan of that one fish will be so much better than hundreds of children. I’m not a saint, am apologetic about it. But still, bothers me.
Stop judging the way people spend their money. “Oh give it to the poor people in Africa” that’ll just hyper inflate their economy even more. Give a man a fish, he can eat for a day, teach a man, and he can fish for life. Stfu

Wow, I know Koi fish can pretty big but I've never thought they can be THAT big. Makes me a bit scared of it LOL. Still, if I can I do want to buy one to be keep as a pet
Japanese fishermen: Hey, that carp looks cool. Im gonna breed it
*hundreds of years later*
There are now 70 different types of koi
Same with anyone other species
Isint it 100?
Seeing how well these Koi are living, I am thinking about dressing up as a Koi and then secretely sneaking into one of these places
And eat fish food?
and your children would be a fishman or zora race (from legend of zelda)

Well I hope you can achieve that dream someday soon.
You can, they sell tosai (one year olds) between $150-$500
Rather than buying a new one I would like to rescue hundreds of fishes which thrown away because they haven't got right colors!

@@lauramessy yes, you can find it here on youtube.
There is literally nothing that the Japanese won’t try to perfect to an insane degree....

They even have there own os called project sakura

Lets get real here we both know thats not going to happen
Here a simple thing...
Cheers up mate
If you cost a million dollars, someone will. 😂😂
hey bb
Sup
carp is like his children.. he prepares them for competitions and then auctions his children off.. what a zen life
I'm a koi hobbyist and get all my fish imported from Japan IMO Sakai is the best breeder.
"competition is tough"
"I've won champion 11 times"
Well, he won 11 times in 21 year. It only shows how good he is.
For example, if Arnold Schwarzenegger has won Mr.Olympia 6 years in a row it doesn't mean that was easy to do and there was no competition. =)
It’s always interesting to see how in depth the koi world really is.
So that's why Hiroshima named their baseball team the Carps!
Now I wonder where in Nagoya do they breed Dragons??

"Yes"

The oldest koi fish was hanako she was 226 when she died in 1977
Yup,crazy!
They are not “items”. They have personalities, memories, and emotions. They can live for over 200 years if cared for correctly.

200?

Fun Fact: koi fish in Japanese translation would turn out to be "fish fish " because in Japanese "koi" means "fish"
It's wrong. "Sakana" means fish in japanese. "Koi" is one of the type of fish.
