Little Tokyo Village parking lot clearing machine

Question

Last month, I used the Little Tokyo Village parking lot ( the one with the entrance facing San Pedro ).
I was told that I would receive 4 validations from the bank and that they would be valid all day, but after running a few errands, I returned to my car and headed for the exit in probably less than 2 hours.

The problem is this exit checkout machine.

First, it asked me to put in a validation, so I did. It didn't look like a high-tech machine that would allow me to put several tickets on top of each other, so I put in only one of the four tickets.
Next, it asks me to put in a ticket. I did. I did so $ It displayed 9 payments.
There is no button to cancel and no response when I press the button to call an attendant.
In the meantime, the ticket was reversed and returned, but one validation was taken away.
I called the number printed on the ticket and was told to move to the next lane, which was very difficult for me because it was narrow, curved, and uphill. I was finally released after having that thing lifted.

Now, this is a long explanation, but what is the correct way to pay if there are multiple validation cards in the machine here ?

I vaguely remember many years ago, when I tried to pay in advance at the machine on the first floor, the machine was also I remember that the machine was very difficult to use and it was not easy to use. I had assumed that the pre-payment system itself no longer existed, since the machine was no longer there. I later found out that the machine is still in another location.

Please let me know if you know how to use the multiple validation system.
Thank you very much.

Let's write down the jobs that will disappear in the future, and those that will decline, if not disappear !

First, drivers ( Taxis, Uber, Lyft, limousines, etc. ) will certainly decrease.

I have a hard time with eczema on my palms.

Does anyone know of a good dermatologist in the Torrance area or elsewhere ?
I have an itchy, blistering eczema on the palms of my hands. I have been to several doctors, but they only prescribed steroidal ointments, which gradually stopped working, and now I am resorting to Chinese herbal medicine, but there is not much improvement. I would appreciate any advice from anyone who has had similar experiences.

Sex Education for Children

Problem / Need advice

I have a son who is currently in 6th grade.
He started middle school in September.

We thought he is still a child, but we found a history of him searching adult videos on his I Pad.
However, I am sure that he was still not sure about it, and he was also searching if he needed to do something to make a baby.
We have not restricted adult content on I Pad until now, but is it necessary to do so ?
At 12 years old, he will learn a lot of things, and I wonder if it would be wrong to restrict him ・ ・ ・.
I think he had a few days of sex education class at the end of 5th grade, but he probably doesn't understand it at all yet.
In middle school, I have the feeling that he heard about and investigated various things from friends and older children, but do I need to take any action from my parents?

I have restricted adult content on my PAD for now, but I'm not sure if I should really leave it open for viewing ・ ・ ・
He's my son, so I'd rather leave some things to his father rather than his mother saying this and that ! ?
Is there anything the mother can do now?
I would appreciate your advice.

Moving to another state after divorce (with joint custody)

I have a question about moving to another state after divorce.
If a divorce is finalized in California and both ex-husbands and ex-wives share joint custody, and if both exes move to different states, will the rules of the joint custody arrangement, etc., apply in California where the divorce was finalized until adulthood? If so, will the rules of the joint custody arrangement, etc. be the same in California where the divorce was finalized until adulthood?

In the U.S., family laws seem to differ greatly from state to state, so in the unlikely event that the state to which the other party moves is more favorable to the other party, it would be disadvantageous if the rules in California are no longer applicable.

If anyone knows the situation, please let me know.

To buy yen now

Question

Since the yen is weak now, I would like to buy yen.
It is not for future use in Japan, but I will change it back to dollars when the yen depreciation subsides.

I was thinking of sending money in dollars to my family's bank in Japan and having it land in yen, but
Is there an easier way to do that ? especially since I won't be withdrawing Japanese yen, I don't think it is necessary to actually cross the country.
For example, buying yen with dollars in an American bank, or setting up an FX account ? or a brokerage account ? and so on. Is there anything ?

I am too much of an amateur, but I would appreciate it if someone could help me.

Old age in Japan or the U.S. ?.

End of life, but which is better ?

I've heard that in the U.S. it's hard to have that kind of money, that you need more than $1 million over 10 years to be miserable in a nursing home. So if you move in when you are in your 70s and live to be 90, you would need $2 million.
On the other hand, in Japan, if you have 50 million yen for 10 years, they will take care of you in a decent place. 100 million yen for 20 years.

The current view is to be based in the U.S. until you have some freedom to move around, and then sell to Japan.

The food would be better than the US facility, and since all the kids are back in Japan, they would come to see us once in a while.
What do you all think?

I retired at 55. I will receive a pension from Japan starting next month and from the U.S. next year I will receive a pension from the U.S. I am 61 years old.
90% of my assets are in the US. I have a residence in Japan and live in both.

What are your candid thoughts?

Whenever I post a topic like this, I always get anti-car people and agitators, but I'm not afraid of them ! I'll take it ! ( lol )

I'll share my story with you.

① I left my turn signal out ( and forgot ? ? ) to turn, change lanes, and just drive straight...ouch





The above are not so common in Japan, but here in LA, the above 3 are always seen at least once a day. I come across the above three at least once a day here in LA, it's so frequent, it's crazy!
