One might say the phrase, it's only downhill from here, does not apply in Japan since the price of food is very much more expensive than one's, for example, in America. In fact, one can conclude that they may work extra hard to be able to pay for such thing in their job, which explains the significant number of single Japanese ladies in Japan during the year 2000 to present. So calling the lifestyle in Japan with the phrase, it's only downhill from here, is not only correct, but also silly. One might find the phrase, it's only uphill from here, more believable since the way they have to work their way up (another phrase) to get necessary possessions, like clothing or mini skirt and the mini skirt matches with this phrase if you are working your way up like the Japanese in Japan.

Whatever, I tried.
