What do you mean by making a living in Okinawa? You can't live in Japan without proper visa. It's not a matter of money. You must find a job. If you found a job in Okinawa, you could get working visa and live there. If you really want to know how much you need, it's 200,000 yen or so for 1 month.

Okinawa is NOT a cheap place to live so you need to take A LOT. I'm talking close to $10,000 to get started. Do you have a job? Where are you going to live when you get there? Food is expensive. Be prepared!! I'm jealous if you do it:) Good luck!

How could I make a good living ($$) in Japan?
I want to know how to make good money in Japan. What kind of jobs other than teaching English could I do? Any jobs that are computer related? Jobs that need a degree in computer science, computer graphic design, or computer programming?

There are many IT jobs advertised in Japan, but considering the large number of IT professionals coming here from India, the salaries are not spectacular. You should check the various job listings at the Japan Times (newspaper) and on Gaijinpot (website) and see what kind of credentials and experience bring the best salaries.
2 :
There are as many computer related jobs in Japan as in US, like programmer and so on. But you can't have those jobs so easily as jobs in Japan are mainly for Japanese people. You need a visa to work in Japan. And you can't get it just because you majored in computer science.

Is it possible to still make a mistake in wiring money from Citibank Japan?
Is it possible to still make a mistake in wiring money from Citibank Japan?
My husband been sending money to my US account for the 5th time already. This month was a delay. He told me that he had a bank account number mistake. So, Citibank has to track the wire to a wrong account and return it to his account and that is the time to transfer to my bank account. He do the telephone banking. Like he calls everytime he sends money. I thought that there is an imput of name and bank account whenever you send money especially many times or is it possible that everytime he calls citibank employee, he has to give my account number again? Hope there is an answer or any experience of wrong account number from you guys. I need an answer if this is possible especially CITIBANk JAPAN. Thanks much. ANA

Yes it is possible to send money to the wrong account in Citibank. I have an International account with them and although, so far, I have never made a mistake with the numbers, they always warn you to double check before you submit the exchange as it can take a long time to correct if you get it wrong. Be carefull. Steve

Yes, it is..in many cases.... I reviewed your question so far, you mentioned he calls everytime he do the banking...as most of the staffs is not a native speaker of English, might there be a misunderstanding or hard hearing the correct number your husband gave.. but as he gave your name it would be track down for there might be more than one name like your name so they would asked to give your account number... Just to remind you, there are many staffs working on Citibank and misunderstanding always happen as even we showed in person we always find a lot of errors from bank transactions. I agree Western Union does good even it charge more because it is fast and safe for one hour just give the name of the person you are sending the money.. hope this helps! good day!

I really need oversea job in Middle-East or Japan or any rich country to make lot money fast, know a site ?
I know Dubai and UAE are quite popular, and those jobs on ships, even though it looks soooo hard to be a 24 7 slave for ungratefully rich people, but do you have any website where I could find job, contract or not, in a foreign country where money flows ? I dont have much qualifications, except speaking some languages, I mean academic qualifications,

How can our school make money for Japan?
How can our school make money for Japan?
I want our school to raise money for Japan, but I don't know what to do. I was going to have all the kids bring in stuff that they didn't use, and have like a "School Garage Sale" and sell everything for like $2.00. But then I realized, I don't know if it would work because a lot of people might not want to buy bad things. Any other ideas that our school can do? P.S. Our school has a bake sale like every week for a different cause, so I want something new. :) Thanks Also, what are your thoughts on my idea? Do you think it will work?

Can I make money vlogging in Japan?
Can I make money vlogging in Japan?
I'm going to Japan when I graduate from college. I plan to stay there as long as possible (until get deported or forever if i can get citizenship), but I'm still learning to speak Japanese and I can barely write/read Japanese. I know I won't be able to get a real job because of my bad Japanese so I was thinking of doing a daily vlog and posting it on youtube. I know all the popular vloggers make a 6 figure income, but is it possible for me to make enough money to live just starting out as a vlogger?

If you are not Japanese looking there is a very high chance of police officers asking you for your ID (either your passport or your alien registration card). If you're there illegally (past 90 days straight on a tourist visa and without a different visa) you will be deported and barred from the country for a long period of time. That aside, it will be very tough but never give up on your dreams :)

it depend on their xperience , probly 3000 (dunno) yen or some ridiculous number that equils 300 doollars a week
3 :
....3 dollars?
4 :
depends on many things. Just like here it will depend on the school district. In the south bronx you make 30,000 year, in westchester makes 70K+, Also besides the differences in public schools salaries there are different types of schools in Japan. As I assume you are a westerner, you may be interested in working at a private language institute. These are not really schools and most people working there are not really teachers. It is what it is and i won't knock it too much. The pay here is decent for asia, 1,800 to 2,500 USD per month at a guess. In a large city like tokyo, the money will just get you by. Small one bedroom or studio, some pocket money and that's about it. It's some of the best money in Asia but also the highest cost of living. Last I heard South Korea paid foriegn teachers the best in asia followed by japan. Thailand is 900$ month for foriegners and they are the bottom so, japan has to be at least 1,500. You can check daves esl cafe for exact opportunities. From my understanding, Japanese teachers make about the same or more than us foriegners. In some countries we get paid a lot compared to locals but I think in Japan we're about even if not treated as inferior.
