With Interactive Brokers, you can also trade Japanese stocks in yen.

I am proud to say that
I can ask about investments I don't know about and don't know about,
do my own research, and decide whether or not to actually invest .

Are you investing in anything ？
if you don't mind me asking?
Also, thank you for your advice against scams.

＃ What is the point of asking a stranger about investments?

I ask because I'm an old hand at the exchange plaza who used to write about investments. There is nothing strange about it.

If you have around 100 million yen, you should have a certificate of residence in Japan and maintain a bank account
If you are a Japanese with a bank account, you should be able to open a securities account
Of course you should get your own number
I don't think the yen will stay weak for long
but if you think so, that's a plus for Japanese exporters

some people praise Abenomics
but the current weak yen is
frankly a clear reflection of Japan's decline

What happened to the Japanese people ？?

I use an app called Firstwise to exchange money because the rates are pretty bad if you do it at a bank or exchange office. You can put money in dollars and change it to the currency of the country you are in and keep it in the app. I either withdraw it with my debit card or use it as a debit when I travel.

As for banks, SHWAB allows me to withdraw money from ATMs all over the world without any fees, so I have that too.　I don't carry cash, but I don't carry the smallest amount of cash because touchless machines work everywhere in Europe.

I use the Wise app to order a debit card and charge
the funds to the card according to my destination.
I can also withdraw cash from local ATMs. ！
I used it last year in Europe and Japan, and it was really useful to be able to charge additional funds
quickly on the app when I ran out of money.
You can charge different currencies within one debit card, so it might be a good idea to add more
when the rate is good.

I exchanged money last year at the currency exchange in the International Market Place. It is on the first floor on the Kuhio side where Mitsuwa is located.
I parked inside and they gave me a validation.
It's safer to have a little cash on you.
Enjoy your trip!

I obtained a GC on an employment basis, but I re-entered the country twice during the GC process with an I-131 （ 2019, 2020 ).
On those occasions, I was taken to a separate room at the Honolulu airport and was only asked a few questions. The wait was long, about 45 minutes.

I think the reason it says that re-entry on I-131 is not guaranteed is because they sometimes do not allow applicants with special circumstances to re-enter the country at the water's edge.
If a person living a normal life cannot enter the country using I-131, I think the meaning of issuing this document itself would be lost.

I think $600 is a big expense, but if a family emergency happened and I could not return home immediately because of this, I would regret it.

I hope this helps.

Postscript.
reentry to us with advance parole reddit
You can look up the experience on the reddit and you will find that almost everyone has reentered with no problems.

I read somewhere that USCIS does not guarantee re-entry because immigration control is the purview of the CBP immigration officer, which is a separate department.

Thank you for your advice.
It was very helpful.
Thank you for sharing your experience.

Mr. A
Thank you for teaching me so much.
Here is the internet information.
You are right, I am worried and anxious when I am at the mercy of internet information. …
It seems that I-131 has been charged since this April.
Thanks for the advice.
I will check with USCIS.
Thank you very much for your kind advice.

I've been using Mint for about 3 years now ？ The first time I migrated to Mint, I had to contact Mint customer service because my original carrier wasn't a major carrier either.
I have no problem at all with the reception.
I switched from physical SIM to eSIM when I changed my phone, which was also easy to do by myself.
My only complaint is that unlike major carriers, I cannot automatically connect to domestic partner carriers （ such as Softbank ） at no extra charge when I return home.

Thank you for your reply, ma.

Glad to hear from a user. The Spectrum promotion expires this month, so I will switch to mint as soon as possible.

If you only see each other once every few months or so, and you don't really want to get to know each other better, I think it's easier to have a set topic of conversation.
Since you don't seem to want to get to know each other better or have a close relationship, I think you should just leave it at that ？
If you wanted to get to know each other better or have a closer relationship, I think you would broach the subject on your own.
I've lived in the same neighborhood for over 10 years, and there are neighbors who only say "hi," and there are others who work together to
help another neighbor who is sick. Maybe the words are not quite the same, but I guess it is a choice.

I once had a person who lived in the same condo who asked me the same question every time we met.
He appeared to be a very normal looking gentleman. I told him the same story every time I saw him, the same questions about the dog's name, etc.
I told him the same answers every time. A few years later I found out that he was telling me the same thing every time because he had a disease. When I found out, I was so glad I didn't ignore him or be sarcastic.
I don't know if it's too much to ask for just a quick answer once every few months
sometimes tomorrow is your own day.

I don't think they are interested in Toby and don't want to have a conversation with him because he is bothering them.
I am the type of person who just says hello and doesn't particularly want to have a conversation. Even if you want to talk to them, sometimes they don't, so you can interpret that ？.

Thank you for your response ！
I have a relationship with his wife, and she is planning to move out in another year, so I certainly don't want to get to know her any better, and she thinks so, too. If it's a sign of illness or something, that's tough.
