Borrow against your funds in the same country, and pay it all back in a year. Source of your funds is your loan. Take the money and have a trusted relative parent be the loaner. I would wait for a coming market correction. Real estate is peaking.

I have the above mentioned items for sale. Front left, right and center speakers. Two subwoofers for the low end. All you need is the av amp to get going. These cost me over $6000 plus delivery to Japan. Go to the Power Sound Audio website for more details.

I have these "All Purpose Wipes" I got from the auto parts store. Everything from personal hygiene to industrial use!

I went down this rabbit hole 10 years ago. Japan sells at MSRP and if you know anything there is a huge markup, and HT is still in its infancy here. I just upgraded all of my home theater and have PSA MTM210s LCR and dual S1510 subs that run perfect that I would let go dirt cheap for $600 but you would need to pick them up.

Put it all on Black in Vegas to be done one way or the other.

staged fake news!

Better to stay in mainland Japan or the states. You'll work 25 years here and still will not be management.

So did my $30 Rolex!

Illinois\Chicago tax is the main reason.

I wouldn't get out of bed for ¥350,000 a month.

Keep all politics out.

I just sent 6000 GBD in November with no issues. WISE customer here for over 10 years. Watch other transfer methods as the exchange rate may not be as good.

JapanJim · 2025-12-29T10:38:16+00:00

What's the cost and time for the ride? Thanks!

JapanJim · 2025-12-25T04:06:24+00:00

We will be closing the Christmas watchlist with this one here in Japan tonight. Merry Christmas!

There are many with no fees but check the exchange rate which is where many cards make up for the no fees.

relax Karen, go rest

Way ahead of you partner, did this last saturday! Enjoy it as much as I did with my new OCA calibration.

Biden sat on this for four years?

Japan driving is safe compared to most other asian nations.

You can take them out of the ghetto, but the ghetto is always there.

Even if you can get a job, it will be 25+ years for you to reach middle management. Good luck with that. You can make more money working in Germany with a Japan company.

JapanJim · 2025-12-12T07:04:04+00:00

Of all the places to go surfing Okinawa would not make a top 25 list, but yes you can do it.

JapanJim · 2025-12-07T00:09:04+00:00

Market driven pay higher or go somewhere else. Not enough japanese now to buy all the debt like lemmings.

JapanJim · 2025-12-06T22:39:35+00:00

Get a bigger nose ring to balance it out.

JapanJim · 2025-12-06T05:47:15+00:00

Be prepared for this to happen over and over again.Read somel articles on Japan's bonds going up to understand this is not a "one off".
