David, you dead on with your comments take care and stay safe

@@NethFaulkner Thank you and GOD speed to everyone there in the Philippines.

Thank you 😊

They have insurance plans for about $100 usd a month Fillipina Pea has a video on it.

You are close to Australia and Japan really good beef at both of them.

It’s like that in Mexico they don’t have special cuts of pork. You pay for bone and all per pound. You are in kilo system.

For 7 people that’s reasonable rent I guess.

Yeah Bahamas has an 80% duty tax. And you can see a lot of iPhone users there. I seen a girl drop and spider the screen on her brand new phone.

idiot go to philly better go to thailand, cambodia,vietnam,laos. lto better countrys retiree. i has live philly and malaysian and cambodia etc, best all countrys have thailand.

We are follow your footstep.

Remember after you build the house on your wife’s land... It’s not yours anymore... She owns it..! Foreigners can’t own land in the Philippines...!

No problem with me. I have a great wife & a wonderful 20 year relationship. I trust her fully & she will be inheriting everything I own when I pass away anyway.

Robert Arnold good luck..! People change when they are on their own turf. Blood is thicker than water...!

Those are my thoughts exactly, well said Robert

best way

So you in pilipines only fir cheap pricess.

Not true!

LoL! Lol! “People take advantage of me because of the color of my skin.” Did a lightbulb just turned on? Wow! Imagine being beaten, put in prison or murdered because of the color of your skin. And you think your skin color is a problem? ..something you had nothing to do with creating. I wish God would take responsibility for this discrimination and hatred because of skin color since He’s the one who did this to us.

One time I was on the phone at a local market in a small town speaking english and prices for commodities are higher till I spoke in a local dialect then prices deflated hahaha same with a taxi in my hometown, the driver must have thought we are foreigners so we took a long route which didn't me as the ac was good and it was really hot outside, our bill came to 400 peso and I gave the driver 70, I said if you don't like it then bring a cop here which he didn't because back then it was the going rate, now the meter starts at 40, back then it starts at 20, I dont mind giving a tip when drivers are honest or helpful.

What's the difference? You'll be a walking ATM that's speaks Tagalog, cibuano, papaciente, or any other indigenous dialect. Now look, he's taking care of the whole clan instead of enjoying his retirement 😂🤣

Need to consider health insurance snd safety price commodities

Once house and cars are paid off and debt-free, you cannot beat the lifestyle in US especially if retiree planned and saved for retirement. If retiree is only relying on SS, then Philippines is a good option. Quality meats, groceries, clothes, shoes, cars, appliances, meds, household goods and electronics are much cheaper in US if you know where and when to buy. It is also more comfortable and convenient to retire in US. Govt transactions are fast and can be done online. Cars can be bought online, everything can be ordered online.

definitely!! ive lived here for a yr. way better here!

@@paengguin9381 with $2000 a month, you can get someone to drive you, cook for you, clean your house, do your laundry, all you have to do is eat and sleep. Can you do that in the US, if so, how much does it cost?

@@eric95209 I hope you are also paying their SS, PhilHealth and other benefits which are required by law in PI now. I value my privacy and do not want people in my house daily that I also have to feed and increase my utility costs. Did you calculate those costs? I did all the calculations line by line and added all the costs, I actually save more money in US than PI. Also, be careful who you trust in PI. I have a gardener in US that comes weekly. I can hire the sane 2 maids 2-3 times monthly in US and I can order cooked meals for delivery, eat out or cook it myself. I would rather drive my own cars which I enjoy doing and maintaining myself. Gardener and maids do not have to live with me which by the way is a waste of money adding benefits, utilities and food costs. I can just hire them when I need them and they have been helping me for years. I can wash my clothes in my high tech washer and dryer. Inactivity will kill you quickly, I prefer to move around so I do not get clots in my body and die of a stroke or a heart attack. High tech and beautiful appliances and cars in US make life so easy. I get stressed and paranoid every time I go to PI due to starving people that would do anything to get money. You have to be street smart and be a bit paranoid so you or your family do not become a victim. It is OK to take vacations in PI for 3-4 weeks but not to live there permanently. Non-stop lockdowns, masks and face shields make PI not fun. China will invade Taiwan soon and PI will be in the middle of WW3.

My GF is from Imus. I’m kind of liking it ❤️

@@chuck5555 That's where my son, his wife and children live.

I hear nice things about Lipa

I have a small affordable farm land with a nice big house in San Juan, Batangas. Price is only Php 6M. If you adapt her kids (under 18 y. o.) then they should be instantly converted into an American citizen.

Philippine is a nice place and you can start turkey / chicken free range farm, plant vegetables and many more. you can live organically and live longer life without toxic chemical like in usa ....!!!!!!! pick a land that have natural spring water, watch dexter world or Jigger Villacorta

California is getting worse and worse. Go for it.

First Philippines 🇵🇭 is one of the hottest weather on the planet put that in the consideration. Some places on the mountains side could be cooler like Baguio. I know it is hot

Same! My parents are retiring in the phils in a couple of years. If Phils is three hours away like Mexico, I'd be back and forth all year! hehe

@@yamashitatreasures it is a dirty country cars heavily polluting and motorcycles, dogs 🐕in the cage hot day drooping. Burning rice field all the times and burning house garbage plastics etc trafic on the road mingle with motorcycles and tricycle plus jeepney taxi stoping without warning ⚠️ hot weather 32 celcius up to 41. Living in a furnace. People are nice 👍 yes you can get your farm, garden around your house. Don’t forget to put bars all over your new house looking like a jail to keep the inmate outside trying to get inside your house raising a wall with needles on top. Not sure 🤔 if Philippines 🇵🇭 is what people say.

"He allowed her to talk" major red flag!

Hi Teresita, thanks for watching.

Is that food ?

Thank you

Please try to see it aside from the budget. As a Filipino I can say that we can show you the true hospitality of the Filipino. Anyone who speaks English will be understood here as most Filipinos speak English. We are also multi-cultural so any foreigner should be able to meet people from one’s country and / or culture. Infrastructure is quite developed, transportation is available in most areas. Aside from buses, we have Jeepneys, Tricycles and Motorcycle rides w a driver, Light rail transits, trains, ferries, and soon subways. Planes are available to go to most parts of the country as our Airports are very well constructed and world class. Our sea ports are highly maintained. I could go on and on. Please do check out the channels of “The Hungry Syrian Wanderer” or Basel Manadil, Dasuri Choi, Joshua Cho, “Happy Reactions”, “Puting Pinoy”,.

@@mattivirta Yes, quite true 🇹🇭

@@mattivirta Matti ... What about speaking Thai ? Retirees need to learn Thai ?

Back home where?

@@Leonardo-1 Cebu 🌴

Hahahaha What about dried fish?

@@NethFaulkner No fish at all... I know, Phil is not optimal for me 🙃

Also Steve doesn’t like any of it 😄

Oh man! Man oh man! Some of the best food in the world is Mali-sugi (blue marlin) belly, grilled.... for the vegetable.....coconut ubod... very very delicious!

I never understood why American pr Canadian missionaries would go to a Catholic-Christian country to evangelize. You’re already “preaching to the choir” unless you’re stuck on divisive, denominational differences trying to snag people out of one denomination and talking them into another.

Thank you 😊

@@NethFaulkner Your so Welcome !

we living in batangas also with american husband for 11 years now with 3 kids living his retirement life here

hi.. How's living there in Batangas? do you like it?

Where we live is great quiet neighborhood

Thank you ☺️

I like My PI Dream

What work is there in Philippines for foreigner

Scott, not sure about work for a foreigner unless you have the visa and a specific skill set I see allot of KZfaqrs who Vlog about that, good luck to you.

Buckeye was our home before coming to the Philippines, good luck to you on your move.

Hi Flare yes it is a different climate than others best of luck

Can you imagine, Filipino’s use only a few spices when cooking; salt, pepper, and Monosodium glutamate. They’ll also add fish sauce, soy sauce and vinegar.

That’s sucks sorry Ben. We are thankful our internet is great we don’t have problems at all 🤞

Just more time to plan and get finances in order.

Keep planning and saving. 20 years will go by fast.

Manila is such an ugly place to retire. Please find a province to really feel the true Philippines.

Property prices are going up also. Wish youtubers would go more in def on looking for land to buy. Prices I been seeing are getting crazy

Philippine is a nice place and you can start turkey / chicken free range farm, plant vegetables and many more. you can live organically and live longer life without toxic chemical like in usa ....!!!!!!! pick a land that have natural spring water, watch dexter world or Jigger Villacorta

Thank you for tips I’ll check it out.
