You guys points your making have solidified my choice of where I want to live which is BGC itโs close to the international airport and the VA hospital without living in Manila and having everything I want within walking distance.
Oldie but goodie, enjoyed it and covered vary relevant topics
Hi Gio.
This is a great ๐ video,..first time I saw it. It has opinions of you three on different subjects that expats encounter when they visit or stay in the Philippines.
It would be great if possible Gio, if you could get these same two guys today, if they're still around in the Philippines,..and do a "follow up video" and ask them the same questions today and see if and what has changed for them since this video.
Thanks and keep up the great work.
Take care.
My Venti Carmel Macchiato is $9.79 it was $8 last year. Iced coffee same kind and size $7.44 pulled these numbers off my Starbucks app as I typed this.
Starbucks coffee in Atlanta is about $5.
All three of you made me laugh at the end ๐ข Do you really think your Filipina would like it if you said you are just friendly to other women ๐ฎ no way Filipina ladies are the most jealous ๐ฎ๐๐ฎ
Makes me glad I don't drink coffee. The amount of money I've saved!
Funny jokes about older guys. Mirror mirror on the wall ๐
sunglasses …ughh
Right on Gio this video rocks๐๐พ. Thanks for sharing ๐๐พ!
Is this old video
I Remember Paul , i didn't initially recognize Shaun without him wearing his Retired Submarine Active Service Combat Cap that is usually glued to his head. Dan
I'm not a fan of Paul.
He reminds me of the Angeles City type.
Iloilo for the win.
Starbucks daily 7-10 dollars
This really is a great interview. Thank you and please produce more content just like this…life lessons learned for others to learn from! Thanks Gio!
On your death bed you won't regret that you didn't work more, or make more money, or spend it on BS, you'll regret the time you didn't spend with good people
The Philippines is one of the safest places to encounter wild animals. The majority of those bit by snakes are rice workers. I have killed a cobra and though you have to be careful, they are no match for an armed human. City life is only a glimpse of the Philippines. Rural life is so full of life. To those who think they must live next to a hospital, go to Thailand or Malaysia. But, think about this: 3/4's of all medical bills in the USA are paid out during the last two years of life. Why waste that money? Get right with God, with your health and rejoice in the day you die. Prepare for it and prepare your Filipina to be blessed after you leave this earth.

Personally.
The idea of retiring overseas is all about adventure and affordability.
Chasing girls is low on the priority list. Filipinas have their own special kind of issues.
Housing is maybe 1/3 of what it costs here in the PNW. Unless you get a hour or two way from a major city. A studio apartment is $1200+, something decent is going to be more like $1500 and up.
The average person is going to be living in survival mode most of the time.
Not much different than living in the Phils on a $600 a month. You can do it, but it sucks.
My superficial plan is. 6 months there bouncing around and return home to the US for an assessment.
Hopefully by the time retirement comes. I have a better idea of a long term plan.
