The way you two look at each other and interact, really shows how much love there is.

You are living a good life and are happy. Life is good.

Great video

When she says sometimes I really do feel like washing some clothes by hand, you can tell she really means it. That's a country girl. 🏆

Every time the amount went up, Leah looks so serious. HeHe. Gary, so just living a normal life doing normal things, makes you look very rich to most Filipina's. 2k a month is still very cheap for a family of 4. The smiles from Leah and the children are sure enough priceless brother. God Bless

Good budget video Leah and Gary...Informative for sure! On behalf of all your subscribers and listeners, Thank You!

Nice to see you guys relax and laughin again sta safe and God bless 🌹👍

Leah and Gray thanks for the updates.Kudos to you guys.Stay blessed.

Hello, thank you for the info! Love your channel❤️

Check the freezers and refrigerators are in good working condition. Have to do that in such hot climate. Check the rubber gaskets for damage.

Nice interview Leah. You both look very happy. I hope you are doing something nice for yourself with the money you are making from KZfaq because you are putting a lot of work in and you deserve it.

Great video not bad for 4 ppl

Nice interview Leah 🥰

Thankful for you sharing your $ numbers. I found it interesting- since I have seen your home and shopping adventures

Leah and Gary you tow are awesome! I'm so glad I subscribed and thank you for doing a great vlog on budget! I'm 55 and from Australia and I will be going to Dumaergete in January 2023 to basically have a look around and see if it somewhere that I could retire on. Many thanks guys and thanks for sharing!

Waiting

I think your expenditures(Gary & Leah) are still high on the average and you guys can cut down the wants and maybe you guys can pampered yourself once awhile the wants.😋Money is important in every country and you guys have to save for rainy days not forgetting your kids will grow.All the best guys and may your family always be blessed🙏

Gary is right about rent prices. I live in so cal, and a one bedroom apartment would be around $2,500 - 3,000 for a solid one. 👍

You guys are a great couple. God has blessed the two of you very much. When I get there in a few months, I’ll be living in Cebu City with my girlfriend. I’ve budgeted around $2K-2500 a month and we should live very comfortably. When I told my girlfriend how much I have to spend she couldn’t believe the figure. She’s never seen that kind of money but she’s a great girl and we should do reasonably well on our budget. I like when you and the other vloggers do these budget videos because it allows me to be fully prepared for any eventualities that may come so I can know about how much to spend on things. Thanks for the information and take care both you and your by kids.

I love doing it also by hands haha specially now we don't have water we will do laundry in the river mas masaya haha

I could do without the coffee. but can't do without aircon. so for me add another 200 USD to the electric bill. thanks for the video

Laki ng tawa mo Leah hehe, your expenses are similar to us when we were living in negros oriental

Ya'll need a white board like Jerry and Nelma 😄😄

My expenditure in the Philippines is 130,000 php per month (but this also includes some mandatory banking on her side, at my request) so your family is doing ok. One thing I did do though was to ask my partner to write down everything she bought in columns of expenditure so that she could visualize what we spend.....it has amazed her. Example - tikes are expensive where I live compared to most of Philippines, but she would often go to the shop to get this or get that and not consider the trike costs as part of the actual cost of getting those items, since writing everything down she has backed off the trike trips a lot as she just didn't realize the real cost of getting those items. It has also assisted her with budgeting which as we all know is not a strong point in the Philippines.

That's a very small amount of money for a family of 4 to live on in American standards. It just can't be done in America in my opinion. Thank you for sharing. Finances and medical things are very personal but I would have been interested in knowing how much the Gracie medical emergency cost you. That would be important for foreigners to know for getting medical insurance and/or having an acceptable sized emergency fund. Again, thanks for being willing to share as much as you did.

Yup our plan was to retire there but when we have kids. We want the best for them. I'm still planning. They can go to a private school there. Hopefully.

That is not bad, around 1500. USD a month!! It looks like I could live a good life over there. The cola for next year should be around 8% and my Navy retirement. She might buy more cloths but its not because she is out growing the cloths and they will last!!

Gary, you're living my dream brotha! Leah seems perfect. All of these American men, Philippine women videos I watch all seem to have the same thing in common. Caring, submissive, appreciative to just name a few. Dating here is the total opposite. At 39, feel like I have time to make it happen, hopefully by 42. My question would be on the temperature & air conditioning?

Most couples in the UK would factor in alcohol in the monthly budget, probably about £150 a month

It's good to have a budget, that is the only way to success. Spend only, with money you have. ie live within your mean, the only way. And keep a saving for raining days, for emergency expenses.

Leah you are a very beautiful young lady! Gary is very lucky!

200 Dollar a month was enough for me. Including visa extensions. I did that for 3 years. Doesn't matter if alone or as a couple.

Hello to both of our from Belgium (Europe) ! Very interesting video ! When speaking about Medical cost ave, you both mean the filipino health insurance subscription ? Thanks to both of you for the beautiful couple you form !

handsome British man here, the woman is very friendly

The exchange rate may be good now but a year from now maybe not so. Try to save a bit to compensate for the future if it goes does. Remember the 7 fat years vs the 7 lean years in the bible.

I live very modestly in concord New Hampshire… my rent alone is 1500 USD a month lol

Do you have to give money to your girl to feed the family as we do in Thailand if so how much

I spent $4000 to $5000 for 20 years for 20 years and $5000 to $7000 for 25 years, mostly in Seattle, California and Tokyo. I consider $2000 cheap.

What do you do for a living Gary?

your entire budget is the cost to rent a 1BR small condo n Vancouver fit for 1 person. and you are staying in a house , living a middle income lifestyle. the difference between East and West. I wanna go home :)

Gary, are you working in the Philippines?

hey lucky old man philippines is heaven if you have money and filipina as wife. you will live longer with her kiss and embrace. in your country you will die in a nursing home. great decision in marrying her. loving and caring they are the best.

damn i could live really nice in the Philippines

His saying 55 bucks for power is a lot lol mmm mine is like 1k a month dam that place is cheap as he'll cld live like kings there dam.

I know for me that I draw disability from the VA so I could easily afford to live over there

Gary is now curious as to how much you make through KZfaq. Hey, it’s your money Leah. Advice, do put away some of your earnings aside for emergency purpose i.e. medical. People could ultimately go broke on one episode where a family member is hospitalized for a long period of time and the cost associated is astronomically high. $1,350.00 is not bad for your family’s standard way of living. Take care.

My electric 7 to 8k a month

So you cld live so easy there for 3k a month dam i must see if it worth moving there 🤔

Money Matters in the Philippine. AGE MATTERS TOO , right ??

1 bedroom apt $3000 Parking space $400 Dog surcharge $75 Plus utilities Per month NE USA

Gary kind of looks and sounds like Popeye LOL no offense but he does LOL

Well, what your video showed me is that I should be living rather comfortably in the Philippines. If you guys manage to live well with 4 people on less than 100.000 pesos a month, I should definitely be okay, as I’m paying currently as followed: Rent for a 1 bedroom: $1800 Food per month. : $2000 Truck. : $ 500 Insurance, property taxes, Medication, bills like internet, Hydro, utilities, etc. : $2500 Entertainment: : $. 500 Total per month at least $7000 And yes, that’s for a single person living an average lifestyle

PLEASE! PLEASE!! SHOW TO GOD THAT YOU LOVE YOUR HUSBAND. I AM PILIPINO ,DON'T BETRAY US.

I’m surprised you never bought or built a house for your girlfriend. Something she’ll have in case of your demise.

I AM PILIPINO, PLEASE DON'T BETRAY PILIPINOS TO LOVE YOUR HUSBAND. EPHESIANS 5:20 -26 YOU GET MORE BLESSINGS FROM GOD IF YOU ARE LOYAL TO YOUR HUSBAND. BE LOYAL TO GOD AND YOUR HUSBAND THEN YOU WILL ELIVATE YOUR COUNTRY MEN AND LOVING GOD.

cheap is cheap but the quality living is luxurious vs America? America get stimulus checks, humm oh yeah, we get tax refunds.. humm what else oh yeah we got walmart. and hamburger

its all well and good if you have so much money that you don't really care what you do with it. Guys, I have built a 2 storey house which means we pay no rent. you mentioned you pay 12k rent for your house. where do you live? House rental fees here in my area vary from 5k for a small house and 10k for a very large house. We have hot water in the shower and split inverter aircon in the bedroom, we live more comfortable than almost anyone in our subdivision. I eat almost the same as i would in Europe and my wife eats the typical meals for a Filipino. water is 291 a month, electric 2500 a month, gas 800 every 2 months. Anyway.....our monthly budget is around 27-30K no problem and we do really live a comfortable life. your budget 80k to 100k a month, WOW !!!!!

If you can't afford to go to the coffee shop you shouldn't come to the Philippines if you don't have enough money to be in the Philippines and enjoy life you might as well go home sorry but that is my opinion

A very false budget when it only include what you spend so your visa is free you don't buy clothes your bike and tuck tuck was free

Being Christian I would never have my wife show off her body like that in Tick Tock videos or just videos. That is not Christian to me I'm sorry to flaunt her body in front of other people sorry buddy but that's not Christian I know you need the money on KZfaq but please
