It's been a while since I've had a pickup at LAX, so please keep me up to date.
If I want to pick up at Terminal B around noon today, what do you recommend? ?
The free pickup (loading) area on the ground floor of the terminal parking lot that used to be convenient is no longer there ?
How is the cellphone How is the waiting lot? ?
Is it still possible to enter the terminal parking lot even if it costs a little more ??

The parking lot in the airport is the same as it used to be, and I believe the first floor pick-up area for the free 20 minutes is also the same as it used to be, but I'm sorry if it's under construction. No general vehicles can enter. So, it is very difficult to pick up passengers as soon as they come out, like in the past, because they can't find a place to park their car and have to go around several times
Many people come to the upper departure level and wait at the end of the hall to pick up their luggage If you don't have much luggage, it's easiest for the driver to have a shuttle come to the cellphone waiting lot.

Airport pickup is usually the way to go. You can pick up in one shot. You shouldn't have to do several rounds unless you accidentally passed by it or something.

How many elderly people of Japanese descent are living in LA? We would be happy to be a place of rest and relaxation for the elderly who use the Koryu Hiroba. We think the eligibility is from 65 years old and up.

I don't think you need to worry so much. As we age, it is natural to become forgetful. Your attitude of accepting that it is "just part of age" is very positive !

If you are concerned, there are a few things you can do to keep your brain active. For example, you can play mind games such as crosswords and puzzles, try a new hobby, or keep a journal. Also, light exercise can help improve brain function. If you have problems in your daily life, writing notes on sticky notes and putting them in an easy-to-see place or using the reminder function on your smartphone may also be helpful. Still, it is wonderful to be able to enjoy talking like this ! Please share any topics that you have enjoyed recently or that are on your mind.

Ototto

> Try to get into the habit of writing things down

I've been doing that for a long time, but soon I forget to write things down, or I forget where I put my notepad.


@Hirorin-w6w,

> Games that use the head such as crosswords and puzzles

I am also lazy and give up after a little and it does not last long. I walk for about an hour every day. Sometimes I skip it.

By the way, I used to go to a yoga class every Wednesday at the LA City Senior Center nearby, but I haven't been there since the yoga class was cancelled due to a lunch-on that used the entire hall. I was the only Oriental in the class, and the rest were all Western grandmothers. I wonder if Gigi doesn't want to do yoga. It's good for the body and mind.

They were talking about their young girlfriends and love stories. They were over 70 years old, but the women were saying that they were 70 year old women, but the men were looking for someone younger at any age.

I have a joke that you may have heard before.
There was a couple who were 70 years old.
One day, God said to the husband, "I'll give you whatever you want
" and he asked to live with a woman 20 years younger than him. God said yes and made him 90 years old.

CHP responded to a report of heavy traffic on the 10th freeway
There was a car driving very slow and sluggishly
I stopped the car and found 4 elderly grandmothers in the car
I asked the grandmother who was driving
She told me that until now I checked the front passenger seat and the back seat, one of them was unconscious and the other grandmother was shaking
I asked her what was wrong
I saw a sign on the road that said 10, so we were going 10 miles per hour.
Officer asked "where are you coming from?" and the old lady said
she was changing from the 110 freeway in San Pedro to the 10
apparently she was going 110 miles per hour on the 1-10 freeway.
the other grannies were on the verge of fainting with fear
chan chan!

When I use my credit card in Japan, I need a pin number ?.

Question

  • Yesterday 10:02

I heard that from April 1, when you spend more than 10,000 yen on a credit card, you need to get a pin number
What about credit cards issued in the U.S. ?
Since I plan to use my Citi Visa card from Cosco, I will get a reference number in addition to my pin number and use it
. I will get a reference number in addition to my pin number and use it I was wondering if anyone who has actually shopped in Japan could tell me how it goes ?

By the way, I will be returning home in the middle of June.

Opinions about politics are important as the voice of the people. However, content that contains criticism or bias against a particular person or group should be considered with caution. While it is healthy to discuss the actions and policies of politicians, personal attacks and discriminatory remarks should be avoided.

If you would like to discuss a specific policy or issue, please let me know. Through constructive discussion, we can come up with a better future.

For small amounts, WISE use is a good choice, but for larger amounts, the fees are lower from the bank.
If the amount exceeds 1.1 million yen per year, the recipient will be subject to transfer tax on the excess amount.

I put it in my brother's Sony Bank foreign currency deposit ( at a good rate ) and he sends me monthly living expenses from there.
If it is properly used for living expenses, there is no gift tax.
For example, if the money sent is not used by the parents and is saved, it is considered to be a "transfer of assets, not living expenses" and gift tax may be incurred. Please be careful not to send large sums of money in one lump sum.

For large amounts, bank transfers can only be sent in several installments, each time incurring a fee
WISE can send the money in one shot, so it's cheaper.

Thank you all !
I saw Oterita's post and thought,
Is it possible to put the money into a foreign currency deposit in my bank account that I left in Japan and have my family card withdraw it from there ?
Even though it is my own account, I am not sure how much it will cost since it is from overseas. I don't know how much it would cost, since the money is transferred from overseas, even though it is my own account.

The US has to pay back a quarter of its national debt ( in the next 6 months, and the amount is so huge that it can't pay it
so it has to borrow again
so it wants to borrow again when interest rates are a little lower and Trump is doing all kinds of things to slow down the economy. is slowing down the economy by imposing tariffs and other measures. One economic analyst said.
