This man is a professional dad. No, not like a “stay-at-home dad” type of figure — I mean his job is simply being a dad for whoever needs him.


And where else would we find this job but Japan? According to this guy, he’s served as a dad for around 25 families, including a nine-year stint as a dad for a girl who is now 19 and is still unaware that he’s not her real father.


Seeing this, you might want to give your own dad a call — just to be sure he’s not on your mom’s payroll.
