Wife is Japanese and we're thinking of buying a house so I cashed in on $13,000 of stocks. I was using Robinhood. I sent the money to a Wise account and then sent it to my regular Japanese bank account because you can't hold more than one million yen in a Wise account. I am total noob when it comes to stocks, just got lucky with Nvidia.
Did I screw up and am I going to have to pay a bunch of taxes on the money? I make under 4.5 million yen a year. I know this is Japan finance, but any info about what I have to do on the US side as well, if anything, would be welcome as well!
Again, I know absolutely nothing and I can't find anyone who has done exactly this, so I'm thinking I might have done something dumb.
