To buy yen now

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.

If you don't need Japanese yen cash, why don't you just use paypal or wise instead of thinking about converting anything into yen
I think the commission is the cheapest
The two old guys above are banks - Don't you know banks charge the highest commission ?.

How a stranger exchanges money is for the convenience of the person exchanging money.

Are you so concerned about the posts of a stranger ? You are a strange person

Is one user controlling the posts?

Back to the main topic,

> paypal, WISE use it

I have a Paypal account, but I pay Amazon, Costco/Walmart, etc. with my CostcoVISA card. I haven't used Paypal at all recently.

Back to the main topic of the topic, I have a question for the living ignoramus.

Is it possible to convert USD to JPY within the same Paypal account, which Topy wants?

If it can be done, I suppose it would show both Japanese Yen and US Dollars within the same Paypal.

If it can be done, I would like to do it now too.
