I was going to look it up since I was online but I thought it'd be easier to take a guess, wrongly it seems.
The yen is 'suffering' from EnDaka, meaning it's very expensive, 100y = US$1.07
The good thing is, AUD$1.00 = 61Y because the Aussie PM is a moron so I get a fat bonus here which is worth say the price of 10 fridges, but when I send the money to Australia (Oz) it's worth about 25 fridges. And, considering the difference in cost of living between Tokyo and Sydney I can live on one bi-annual bonus for 4-5 months in Sydney!
If I stay here for another couple of years before I head home and keep playing with my E*trade account I might be able to buy a house!!!!! (in sydney of course, not tokyo - where I struggle to afford a post office box )
