one BILLION yen over 2 years…wow, I got excited once when I had one MILLION yen in my hand on the way to make a downpayment on a car. Well deserved, he has earned it with his play on the field. I just cant imagine having access to that much money. Especially with how strong the yen is to the dollar. Anyway best of luck for the next 2 years!
