It's USD, but 250k in NYC isn't all that different from 175k in Tokyo


Yes it is. I've worked in both. Japan will eat more of your money than NYC, have you spent any decent amount of time in Tokyo? My God.

Take the NYC job, find a cheaper place in NJ and commute by rail, treat yourself to a couple business-class flights to Tokyo a year, and congratulate yourself on winning life's lottery to even have these options. Also, based on your description of both jobs I'm having a hard time understanding why this is a question.
