A belated Happy New Year! We look forward to working with you again this year.

I started blogging in June 2017; it will be 2024, and this June will mark 7 full years of blogging. It seems fast, but it's also strange to think that only 7 years have passed...

In this article, I would like to write about my aspirations for the year ahead, looking back at the time of the blog's establishment and up to now. (Who's interested in that?)

Until the day I buy a Porsche with my own money.

In 2017, when I started the blog, I knew no more about cars than I do now...or almost nothing, and I didn't even know the term PDK. Of course, I didn't know much about car construction at all.

Looking back, I don't know how I started the Porsche blog under such circumstances.

Ignorance is scary... no, on the contrary, it's strong w

In addition, "Even though it's a late-breaking blog, I want it to be somewhat readable.I had a feeling that I wanted to do this, but there was no way anyone would look at a blog written by a housewife and someone who did not understand cars at all, when there were so many high-quality content available, such as blogs by car critics, famous individual car bloggers, and major automotive media.

."Keep writing articles for three months.I decided to write every day, and I tried to devise my own article titles and writing style, but access did not increase at all.

Then, after about three months.

We tried many things and arrived atA blog that tells the story of how a housewife bought a Porsche with her own money.The first time I saw the "I" in the book, it was "I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do.

Even if she didn't know much about cars now, she thought that if she could write a blog about her days of achieving her goals while teaching her husband about cars, she might be able to attract a few more people interested in her work.

And the title of the blog is "Until the day I buy a Porsche with my own money.I changed the title to "The Porsche Came to Our Home" (the current title, "The Porsche Came to Our Home," was changed from April 2018), and after that, access increased, more people supported us, and my husband and I began to work together to make this the most accessed personal car blog in Japan.

It's a strategy for the weak...although I think it's very much a matter of luck that we happened to be lucky.Even a latecomer blog can win if it's creative.The real-life experience of "the real thing" was a great benefit to me.

The goddess of opportunity has only the front of her hair

Although "Buy a Porsche with your own money.The road to the "Mere Old Man" was not a smooth one, and of course, it was not a simple one.

My husband told me, "If you really want a Porsche, you have to think seriously about how to earn money.and so on.I guess I'm not serious enough yet.I was thinking about this when I was in the middle of a project,

."I could use more time for work once I have finished raising my three children...!And, there are long periods of agony.

In the midst of all this, I reflect on my own reasons why, thanks to you, I was able to achieve my goal of buying a Porsche with my own money in May 2023,

First, you have to build your confidence as you clear small goals."
When an opportunity comes along, even if you're not perfectly prepared, take it."

I wonder if it was the two points of

In my case, I could not afford a Porsche out of the blue, so I started out by purchasing a used BMW 320i (MT) for 2.3 million yen (even so, it took a lot of courage to jump off the clean slate). (Even so, it took a lot of courage to jump off the clean slate.)

She then sold the 320i when she had a baby, and about a year later bought a new Swift Sport for $2.2 million.

At this time, I was still thinking to myself, "Buying a new car is a cloudIt took a lot of courage, because it was "the first time I'd ever done it.

And now that I've finished paying back the SwissPo, I'm kind of feeling like I'm on my way.Next time I want to be able to buy a Porsche.He began to think, "TheI'll take a few years from here to save up for a down payment on a Porsche!(↓ X's post at the time)

I am pleased to report that in October 2022, I have successfully completed the repayment of the loan on my beloved Swissport. Therefore, I hereby declare that I will start to make concrete moves toward the purchase of a Porsche 911 (what the heck is that?). pic.twitter.com/FpI847aUFx

From there, the dealer representative, Mr. H., said, "I'd like to hear from you at the time when the late 992 model will be announced.I told him, "I'm sorry. Then, about a month later, "It will be an early 992 model, and I don't know if I can afford it, but Carrera T, can you get in line?and Mr. H. contacted us.

However, at the time, I didn't have a large sum of money in savings, I didn't want to ruin what I had been steadily accumulating in mutual funds, and I honestly felt that I was not ready to do so now...

This story came at a time when Swisspo had finished paying back the loan.

I felt like I was being pushed back by something unseen.It is often said that the goddess of opportunity only has bangs, and in fact, opportunities come a bit flying...I convinced myself that I wanted to book the Carrera T. The next day, I contacted the company to make an appointment.

But I don't know if I will win the frame, and I don't know if I will be approved for the loan.

I waited patiently, thinking that if something didn't work out, this would mean "don't buy," and I was lucky enough to win a production line and be approved for a loan, which eventually led me to cancel my mutual fund portion (lol), make a down payment, and buy a Carrera T.

Then, in May of 2023, he took delivery of his first Porsche, a Carrera T.

Carrera T to a life beyond the Carrera T

To be honest, 911 might have been too early for my lifestyle now that I have three small children, and it might have been a reckless choice based on common sense.

Still, "I'm glad I bought itI think from the bottom of my heart.

BecauseI could see a world I wouldn't have seen if I hadn't bought it myself.From.

I have watched my husband buy a Porsche and witnessed the delivery of the car, but the feeling was completely different than when I was the one buying the car.

I became very concerned about small details (dirt, etc.), and just seeing my partner's presence in the parking lot got me excited,In many ways, I honestly feel good about having been able to open the door to another new world.

I also think my luck has improved. In particular, the flow of work has clearly changed.

He purchased a Carrera T. and called it "I need to make more money to pay off my loan.I put more effort than ever into my work," he said, "and I think, without exaggeration, that 2023 was the most productive year of my workaholic life.

This left me with no time to go out to lunch with friends and less time to relax at home. I was more worried and conflicted than ever about balancing work and child-rearing. (But little by little, I began to find my own way of doing things.)

Nevertheless, such various events as "Well, there's a lot going on, isn't there?I have come to enjoy it. I think it all started with the purchase of the Carrera T.

Life will surely be a series of challenges until we die.

In 2024, I will continue to challenge myself, work hard, enjoy a car lifestyle that fits my lifestyle at any given time (in addition, I have been the PTA president of my elementary school since April this year...) I just want to run through the year and have no regrets. I want to make it a year with no regrets.

We look forward to your continued support of Porsche in our home this year!
