Exchange to Brazilian Currency

Question

I am looking for a place to exchange money into
Brazilian reals for my trip to Brazil.
I am hoping to have a few reals before I leave, although I am sure I can manage locally.
I heard that the money changer in Brentwood does not handle Brazilian Real, so I am urgently looking for one.
I think it is possible to exchange at the local airfield, but it would be reassuring if you could tell me about your experience of exchanging money there
.
Thank you very much.

Today I had a flat tire on my car and called AAA to come over.
When he was done, I tipped him $ 20 because it was hot and I wanted a cold drink but my neighbor, an old American guy, said that AAA doesn't have to do tips. How about you Bibi's ?
Please refrain from making outlandish comments and off-topic. I don't need examples of restaurants, etc. I am only asking about AAA or similar car related services.

You did your job without looking bad in the heat
$ If you received a 20 tip in a good mood, that's good.

I give it.
Tipping is a feeling to begin with, so I guess generalizations don't apply. ? I don't have a set amount, and I change it depending on whether they came as soon as I called them, or if they were nice. In the end, I don't think you need to worry about what other people are doing because it is each person's own value.

Yes, they were smiling and happy to receive it. However, I am an American in a tipping society, and I was a little concerned that some Americans say they don't have to do AAA.

I am happy to give you pleasant service no matter what others say, so I will give it to you.

By the way, I tipped $ 20 because we had a good conversation while AAA towed me to the repair shop.

I am planning to move from within the US to Los Angeles and am looking for a home.

I am attracted to the convenience of Torrance, but am interested in Playa Vista, which has many newer properties.

I can't seem to find any reviews of Playa Vista, probably because it is a newer town, but if you are actually living in Playa Vista, what do you think about the ease of living there ?

We are a couple in our 30s with a preschooler. We are a couple in our 30's with a preschooler. No problem driving in English.
We usually shop at Trejo and go to a Japanese supermarket about once a week.

I would be happy to hear from you if you have any recommendations about Playa Vista or other areas you would like to live in.

Cyber Police News] Beware of Threatening Emails Demanding Bitcoin !.

Over the past few days, we have received a number of consultations regarding threatening e-mails demanding payment in Bitcoin. Please ignore these emails as they are fictitious emails sent to an unspecified number of people.

Threatening e-mails are characterized by
・ hacking your computer and storing your personal information.
・ We put a virus called a Trojan horse in it and extracted your personal information, etc.
・ Recorded you viewing an adult site with a camera.
・ Contact the police, etc. and your videos will be made public.
They demand bitcoins under the guise of deleting your personal information, etc. This is a typical fictitious billing scam.

If you receive an email that you do not remember, ignore it and never pay.
Please alert your family and acquaintances to avoid becoming a victim.

She is a 3 year old, Bichon Frise girl. I have to go back to Japan suddenly and the results of the blood test for the dog's entry into Japan will be in 6 months. I will pick her up again after 6 months. She is an indoor dog, but can be outside. We will provide food, pee sheets, etc. etc.

My child's preschool will be closed for two weeks or longer due to construction work that will suddenly start next Monday the 10th. We are in a bind because we are both working. Is there any preschool or daycare that can take them from 8:00am to 6:00pm on short notice ? If the cost and location are suitable, we would like to request it. Please let me know if you know of any.

I know that I cannot continue to work for the same employer during the so-called "grace period" of 60 days after completing my J visa or OPT, but I would still be working almost full time during that period, no matter how much I do it for free. ? Also, can anyone tell me the risk to the employer and the employee in such a case?

I think there was a previous topic about yen-denominated deposit accounts in the US, but I can't find it.

When I send money from Japan, it is deposited in dollars when it is wired to my bank here. There used to be a yen-denominated account at Union Bank, but it seems to be gone now. 2 ~ Is there any Yen Account that can be maintained with a balance of less than $30,000 ??

I don't see the advantage of having a yen-denominated deposit in an American bank.

Thank you, SJDummy. Yes, all banks except TIAA require a substantial balance, and since yen transfers to TIAA can only be made through other banks, we can only receive a limited number of transfers. 

For those of you who have had small yen deposits with Union Bank, are you still maintaining your accounts?

2 ~ It would be nice if you could maintain a balance of less than $30,000 USD and still pay in yen
If you pay from an account you have in Japan towards the US
you could do it for a small fee.

I also woke up and started listening to it around Azuki Yashiro, but I fell asleep, woke up again around the manager of a bad pet store ( ? ) and then fell asleep again. I'm listening to it from the beginning now ! ⭐️

I was listening to the bad pet store manager part while half asleep, so I have to rewatch the whole thing again after all ~.

Manager Owl, I'm sure that next time, like with Pilon-kun, you'll conclude with a frustrated apology section ? 😆 However, I think that Pilon-kun is somewhat better than Manager Owl in that he always comes up on calls, even though he spouts a lot of falsehoods.

Also, the senator's aunt in the second half just embarrassed herself, but what did she do: 。。。。
