Shout out to Gold Finger and Orville , love your Popcorn 🍿 Glad you got your i15 back Good people here ❤ Buy a Baja tuk tuk 🛺 Enjoyed the interview ThNks Paul OD
Why did he disgusting old men think that they're going to go to the Philippines and take advantage of a young poor Filipino girl? All of you including you Paul 🤣. Did you meet baby May on a street corner? ✌️
100% right! It’s tough when you get older to except that you just can’t do that anymore. No more wheelies or jumping bikes, for me. At 63 I just don’t have the balance for it. It also hurts more the older you get.😁
Orville is a fantastic man following a new adventure. He could have stayed safe and sound in America and been generally ignored and uncared for by most people. He could have sat on his couch and watched TV going brain dead. Not Orville, he's a hot blooded man going for the gusto. He proves its not too late to change your life and look elsewhere for happiness. I really admire him!
Okay, so as a doctor here's the problem. At 84, the body's battery has basically run out of juice. A fall that will have you jumping up and brushing it off at 30, rubbing your bruises and achy the next day at 50, will put you in the grave at 80. The main killer in old age is a fall. Why a fall? Because the body doesn't heal well in old age, the bones are more brittle, and what may seem like a little knock to the head can bring on dementia. He needs to ease up on taking risks and just enjoy a simpler lifestyle ..... Forget the motor bike, dress casual smart, be the gracious old gentleman around town with his taxi rides and lunch out ..... He'll get some female attention too that way!
Absolutely as he is in NO hurry and even a car may be dangerous as best thing is have some trike drivers on call and hire a Maid housekeeper to look after him so his place is clean and he is well fed and looked after. Spend the Money taking care of yourself and make life EASIER and More PEACEFUL not be young buck racing around on a Motorcycle. I have a Honda ADV but also looking for small car as we need to be SAFE
@@paulk8444 He says he is in no hurry but it sure looks like a hurry to me. Lol. At his age he really needs to slow down and make right decisions. One bad one could be his last one in the Philippines. All the things he did we all have done but not in 8 days. Lol
I think Orville might already be suffering from the early stages of dementia. Its alright to wish you were still 30 but to actually believe it is madness
I’m 70 and hope to go there and was think of getting a motorcycle there. I experienced riding in the summer in the northeast and year round for ten years in Florida. 50 years total. I broke some bones over the years but nothing that would kill me being younger at the time. I think I will take your advice. These days if I get a scratch from my cat, something that would have completely healed in a week when I was young is with me for three weeks now. As dumb as I may sound I never associated that healing time with the bones. Thanks for the advice doc.
@@paulinthephilippinesolddog9234 My recommendation is prepay your funeral costs if you are going to drive a motor bike at age 84. I don't even see craziness like that in the states were driving is MUCH safer. To tell you the truth I doubt many 84 yr old's could even pass the driving test here in California. Going around the orange cones for the motor bike test requires some dexterity and fast reflects.
Been watching you Paul for almost 4 years now The entertainment is priceless with you and the HILARIOUS entourage. Goldfinger is an absolute HOOT!! Never really thought of relocating to the Philippines/Dumaguete but NOW after serious reassessment It might be a go. 70 years young retired 5 years and BORED. Thank you to you and ALL your guests!!
I took my mother off the road at age 82 after getting some remarks from people who were concerned about her driving. And then I'm talking car, not motorbike. I think Orville should give up driving alltogether, but certainly refrain from driving two wheelers. Add up his age with the Filipino driving style which is way different from the USA and the terrible road infrastructure that is so typical for the country we all love and I think he whould be tempting fate. He didn't say what his monthly budget is, but if he can afford it I would recommend that he hire a domestic helper (M or F) with car driving experience, then buy himself one of those cheap multicabs. His domestic helper can drive him around, cook for him, clean his house, do the laundry, accompany him to places where he might need an interpreter. When he's not feeling well he can take him to a doctor or a hospital etc. For someone Orville's age, such a helper can be worth his weight in gold.
My mother is still driving (Indiana) at 93 and I'm still thriving on a motorcycle since 14 yrs old and working investing construction at 65. I would like the luxury of not riding bikes on the road but as long as margins remain tight and I am alert, I am comfortable riding and encouraging my mother to stay mobile locally.
I remember the first time I saw Goldfinger I didn’t care for him and it wasn’t long until I really liked him; looked forward to seeing him, missed seeing him. He is a good person and I am glad to have seen him again today warmest regards to all of you from Arlington Texas
Excellent interview Paul, I always enjoy when Goldfinger is apart of the show. Great to see Orville is living life and thankful he has the likes of you and Goldfinger. Blessings to all.
If you can't pick the bike up, you need a lighter bike. If there are none lighter, other options should be explored. That said, way to go Orville! Never give up!
I've heard countless good Samaritan stories about the Filipino people returning lost wallets with the money inside and cell phones. Much more good than bad here. So inspiring, what a pleasant change ✌🏾
I was riding my scooter from Dumaguete to Valencia one day and my phone fell out of my pocket, two teenage boys stopped a picked it up, caught up with me and returned it. People in the Philippines are much more honest and kind than they are given credit for by many people that have never been here.
Hats off to Orville. He shows the true American spirit of strength and independence. On the generosity and kindness of Filipinos. The woman at the laundry found 20,000 Pesos in my pocket. She only knew my name and that I went to the gym down the street. She went to the gym to find out where I lived then with her husband found my home and returned the money. For perspective, that is a month’s wage for a typical construction worker.
I don't know about you, but I think it would have been kind to give her a reward for her time, energy and honesty. 10% of the money she returned would seem appropriate if you can afford it. Now I understand some expats are on a very tight budget and couldn't pay that much. But even if you can only give a few peso's that would be a kind gesture.
@@danielhackney7806 Daniel, YES! That is exactly what I did. I gave her 2,000 Pesos. I had to convince her to take it. At first, she and her husband didn't want to accept my gift. It took both me and my girlfriend seveal minutes (they spoke in the local language so I didn't understand what was said) and eventually it was all smiles.
At 84 he looks great and has a sharp mind. That is so much more important than money. I take care of people 30 years his junior that can barely walk. I hope to have his vigor at that age
Hey Paul Old friend, Orville is now my new expat idol!! Talk about daring, age be damned, devil may care attitude.... that's Orville!! He didn't come to the Philippines to slow down, he came with guns blazing, looking for adventure. 8 days in Duma and already had 3 crashes, put Evil Kneivel to shame!! 😄😅😂🤣
There is a trick to picking up bikes so even a 100 pound woman can pick up a 900 pound Harley. You face away from the bike and use your legs and use them to push it with your back and hands. There are videos on YT that show it and it’s fairly easy once you get it. At the same time I sold my 900 pound bike and my 600 pound bike. The big bikes are great for long highway rides, but something small and light would be better for busy cities. Orville could add crash bars so a bike doesn’t go all the way over and hurt his leg, but a trike would probably be better.
This is an award winning type of interview Paul. Goldfinger always has something going on. Orville is like most of us. The mind thinks 35, but the body and reflexes are age appropriate. Never to old to chat with a beautiful women. I kept saying out loud, "Trike, Trike" they will take you anywhere. I came across those Trike operating hours coming back from McDonald's to my hotel. Ended up walking the 1.5 miles back to the hotel. Slow Down should be the banner on T Shirts for Sleepy Dumaguete 😀 Keep up the good work Paul. Maybe see you end of May.
Wow. Hats off to Orville. I can’t believe he can ride a bike. Not because he’s 84 it’s got to be the size of his balls. To go to the Philippines by yourself to recon to retire at 84 is amazing. I cannot have any trepidation now after watching this !! Thanks guys. Very entertaining !
Like you guys, I like Mr. Orville and God bless him for still getting around like he does at 84. I wish him all the best in staying in the Philippines. LOVE FROM IOWA! 😊❤❤❤
The man is not crashing the bike because it is too heavy. He is crashing due to motor skills, reaction time and eyesight. He is going wide in corners and hitting curbs (that is speed and depth perception) then he is throttling instead if laying off (motor skilss) Get him a small trike at least he won't fall over as much and have a little more protection. Also make sure he wears at least a helmet and gloves. A trike is also better because of debris on the road, not to mention dirt roads...
@@Rwj378folks, this is how men stay youthful, fit, and mentally sharp, let him do as he pleases, bike-wise, he's scratched up like the 13 year old inside his head, let him be the dude he is:)
@@lyceum4177You can see that he's only been there a week and already someone has to look after him! Come on, 84 is too old to be there. He's not safe from women, driving or housing.
Hi sir Paul! Pls extend my Hi to sir Orville too!!! I used to lived with my family in Lake Jackson, TX where Orville is from. I am Filipino-American subscriber of yours in Pearland, Texas. I was so delighted to see Orville in your vlog. Hope he will have a good time in the Philippines. Btw Iloilo is my hometown and planning to retire there in 10 years. God bless your channel!!! Mabuhay ka!!!
He is his own worst enemy. Hope he slows down just a little. With the way things are going in the USA even living in the Philippines may be a problem if you are on a fixed income. I have decided to stay in the USA, live the RV van life as a nomad, and enjoy the outdoors for the rest of my life. I don't think my income will be able to keep up with the rising costs even in the Philippines. The women in the Philippines are great, but that would only add to my expenses. Good luck, guys.
Goldfinger congratulations. I can’t believe you stayed quiet the first few minutes good on you😀🌴🌴🍺 Oreville, you need zero motorcycles, but you definitely need two girls one on each arm 😍😍
Living his life the way he chooses, which at 84 its worked good for him so far, just a few scratches on his introduction to Philippine life. The positive is his accident didn't involve a local so he wont have to buy a family a new carabao and 10 chickens
Much respect for Orville. At age 84 and getting into the Philippines 🇵🇭 game is amazing. He gives hope for youngsters like me age 61. Getting close to retirement time for me. Now planning to return and retire in the Philippines 🇵🇭.
I am from Freeport, Texas and I am 71 years old. I graduated in 1970. The last graduating senior class between Clute, Lake Jackson, and Freeport at Brazosport Senior High School. Then Brazoswood went up to the 11th Grade. Another friend of mine from Freeport he graduated in 1968. He lives near here I ended up missing meeting up with him about 2 weeks ago. His name is David Knoebel. I lived at 420 west fourth street. My dad retired from Dow Chemical Company also as a pipe fitter and welder in 1968. He worked there about 30 years.
Another great video Paul. Good information, great advice and the trials and tribulations of a nice guy. You wrapped it up in a single video. All of you guys are a group, I'd love to one day meet when I visit the PI ! Live your best life Paul, and I'll keep watching until it's my time !!!
When you check back with this guy in 3 months I guarantee you he's going to have a black tank top on with flame borders wearing sunglasses with two 25 year old women in both his arms
I see people suggesting buying an electric three wheeler. At his age and reflex time I really believe that your advice on just hiring transportation is the only way to go. This has all the characteristics of a disaster in the making. Just look at the first week. He should consider getting a 2 bedroom and hire a full-time maid/caregiver to help him with all his needs. A little help from a caregiver could turn this potential shitshow into a great experience and help out a local with a job. Thank goodness Goldfinger is there to help him for now. We know you make a little coin for doing the vlog but we also know that it is not worth the trouble and work and we truly appreciate the fact that you have given of yourself in what should be retirement to help others wanting to enjoy life there. Thank you, Brother and May God Bless.
That's life buddy.age doesnt matter .as long as u can still walk ,breathe do what u gonna do.freedom is contagious but enjoyable what more if u have someone to share and care for u ❤️❤️.Go go go.God bless.Cheers🎉🎉❤❤
Great info!....To many guys are used to the US way of doing things and are always rushing around. It is somewhat natural to want to establish shelter first (which he did by getting a hotel) but as you and Goldfinger both said, there is no rush. It was great that he already knows to stay in Duma proper so as able to use public transport etc. He has his base established and now can branch out and do some real looking on the "where would I like to live" aspects. It is great that he met both you and Goldfinger as you will help him slow roll his transition to his new life. That's great you are willing to help out a fellow expat!
@@paulinthephilippinesolddog9234 - What ever happened to Goldfingers friend Darrel/Darrin? He was also in a motorbike accident. How about a video update on Darrel/Darrin? And also have Goldfinger there too..
Hi Paul. Great 👍 interview with the "newcomer" Orville and also Goldfinger. Orville seems to be a great guy and with a little help and direction, I think he will fit well in the Philippines. It may or may not be in Dumageti but also like you mentioned Paul,..Cebu could be a good place for him. Thanks and keep up the great work.
Paul This is one of your finest, informative, and entertaining videos.Many thanks lot to Orville and Goldfinger for their time, and thanks to Mae for putting Goldfingers Email onscreen. Im just about to email him for the Ebook now. Best Regards John
Paul, I have watched you for years now. I am 73 now, but at 51 I married a woman originally form Cebu who was 48 at the time. She had been here in the states, working for a patent attorney for around 12 years and was a widow. I have been to Cebu many times and you are correct about the great condo places to live for expats. My wife has no desire to ever live in the Philippines again so there is no chance we would ever move there. Luckily, in retirement our finances are such that we don't need to think about that option as so many of the expats going to the Philippines. When I hear you interview men who go to the Philippines as seniors, their motivation always gets down to money and then women.....usually the quest for younger women. I can understand the financial situation for sure......having limited finances as an elderly person in the U.S. is a huge strain. The quest for younger women is kind of sad to me. I have to give it to 84 year old Orville. There is no way that I would even entertain a move to another country, let alone a 3rd world country half way around the world at 73.......and he is 84. I also can empathize with him wanting companionship at 84. If anything ever happened to my wife I would be beside myself with grief and loneliness. BUT, Orville needs to be realistic. Look for a woman in her 70's on up to your own age!!!! Any woman less than that is after you only for money knowing that you likely will not live much longer. Personally, I would never leave America at my age as this is where my kids and grand kids are.....it is where my personal support group of family is as I age out, even though they live all over the country. But, again.....I give it to Orville.....he is on maybe his one great last adventure.
Orville you have a great attitude, please be safe and smart during your adventures. Goldfinger thanks for being a good friend. Paul, I’d really enjoy hearing again from Orville before he returns home to hear about his Philippine adventures. Great interview and video, thank you.
Paul, Goldfinger, I know Orville. I am from Lake Jackson Texas too. I met Orville in the Lake Jackson library around 10 or so years ago. I have a video of him that will crack you two up. I laughed and laughed at what he did. I asked his permission to video him and he said yes, then did it again on camera. He is a hoot. Him being over there chasing girls does not surprise me lol. Paul I have been listening to some of your tutorial videos a lot the last few days, paying more attention to your advice since I'm moving there shortly. Goldfinger I got your email address and want one of your ebooks too. I am getting really excited about getting there. When my house up here sells I've got 😢to run back to the Texas Gulf Coast to take care of business there, see half a gazillion friends, then boogie on over to the Philippines. Rose and I talked all night (all day her time) yesterday. She and her younger sister will meet me at the Cebu airport, the 3 of us will stay in a hotel there 2 or 3 days then we will go to Dumaguete and hopefully meet up with y'all and pick y'alls brains some more. I have lived in Europe but I got transferred there by the company in Houston I worked for. They handled all the paperwork etc for me, I did get a bank account there so my check each month could be deposited in it but I also used my debit card from my American bank. This time I have to arrange and set everything up and it's slightly overwhelming. I need to talk to you guys. I'm stoked. I am so anxious to get there. Good, enjoyable video.
I am 81 and have a Honda 250 Rebel which at 45 MPH feels like I am doing 100 MPH. I also have a Harley Super Glide Custom. It is much more comfortable at road speed. But it is too heavy for me now and I have dropped it twice. I plan to get rid of the Harley. I wish I had gone to Southeast Asia more than a decade ago. That is a fantastic story about his phone.
I’m inspired by Orville and glad he’s okay! Hi Paul I’m Steve, a longtime viewer and a new subscriber. I have really enjoyed watching your channel and I always enjoy your very informative interviews. I have visited Cebu in 2017 and just fell in love with the Philippines. I had never been to a place so beautiful and have never met people so helpful and friendly. Ever since that trip I have been researching, planning a return trip and I’m planning to retire somewhere in the Philippines. I finally met a wonderful Filipina that I am going to meet in person and I am so excited. She is a province girl from Cebu. I just wanted to say hello and thank you for all of the videos that you put out. They have all been very informative. I’m sure I will have a lot of questions about making the big move. I hope someday we can have a beer together and get acquainted. Thanks again.
Great Video Sir Paul 😊. I wish the Best for Orville 👍. Always enjoy Sir Goldfinger. My brother from a different mother 😂. Keep the video's comin. Stay Safe 💕 💞 🙏 🙏
Im a Physical Therapist and works with these population around the 80s and up and most of them are still independent here in the US , drives their car and can still function in the community. But here in the US the infrastructure are a lot safer for elderly compared in the Philippines. I think he should just hire a driver he can pay as needed, they dont costs that much. Or maybe his future girlfriend may be able to take care of that. Best of luck and have fun in the Philippines 🇵🇭
I worked and lived from age 53 to 62 in Lake Jackson Walmart as an overnight stocker; till 2017 when we came to Dumaguete. Had a shack on the San Benard River. Two girls born there. Only place in the US worth a damn.
Aw gee whiz, Paulie... how come I always get stuck at the Kids Table for dinner? Orville was truly a treat and I really enjoyed spending time with the three of you! To be honest, I think Orville is gonna make it here. He has the right attitude, his expectations are reasonable, and he has made friends with Goldfinger and the Old Dog (me too, actually)! As for me, I was much happier hiding off-cam. Cameras are NOT my friend, so it's better if I avoid scaring the bejeezus out of your subscribers, Paul! I hope Orville's next few weeks are a lot less eventful, at least from the standpoint of operating a motorcycle in the Philippines. Perhaps an e-Trike might be more suitable, at least until he fully recovers from his calamity. Thanks for another great interview, Paul, and thanks for the social interaction. I was almost worth the price of admission. 🤣
.... Only one watching and listening ....? Not true!! I'm also watching and, especially, am listening. For all the reasons Orville just enumerated -- and some similar others♥
I’m 47 and rode big bikes back in the US and I’m in the Philippines now and I ride a Genio 110 and it’s perfect here because it’s so light and easy to ride and I’m 200lbs.
I am 82 y/o and yes I remember DumagueteI had 7 weeks there last year. If at McDonald's or any other fast food place and if 20 people were waiting to order most people would insist that I go to the front of the queue. I had plenty of time, but I would go and spend a minute talking to 20 people waiting to order. It used to be the same in Thailand but not so much since COVID.
Really enjoy the input from Goldfinger! Would like to see more of Goldfinger and hear his stories. Also, I’m really hoping we get another update from John and life is still treating him well. Keep up the good work Paul 👍
Orville should buy what Bud Brown drove. At 84 years old, it can be really hard on the body in a trike and I know I didn't like it even in my late 50s and especially now in my 60s. It is important at his age to not to break a hip. A broken hip in elderly can lead to death within 2 weeks to one month, usually not up to 12 months if you Google about it. I know this on many occasions through my line of work earlier in life. Btw Paul, my name is a personal joke between my Asawa and myself.
Another great video Paul. Love the work you and Goldy are doing there. Good people. Would like to meet both of you,and of course Baby Mae as well. I have recently " adopted " a family on Mindanao, and am helping them with grocerys. Keep up the great work
If you are interested in Catholic Churches. You must go to Cebu City. They have Magellan's cross. There's also a very famous Catholic Church about an hour outside the city up on a mountain.
Orville, I hope you find your pace and find your own paradise in Dumagette. And yes Goldfinger is like Paul's evil nemesis. That's not evil at all. 😂😂😂
I think Orville would be better off with a 3 or 4 wheel electric vehicle, he has to admit he is just too old to safely drive a two wheel scooter.
I agree completely Bruce
That’s a great point!….he could of easily lost his leg and it would not be just a shin scab….
Shout out to Gold Finger and Orville , love your Popcorn 🍿
Glad you got your i15 back
Good people here ❤

An 84-year old senior citizen and a 160cc motorcycle in the Philippines - what could possibly go wrong?
Well, you never know until you try, right?
I hope he's using condoms. 😁
84 year old biking amongst 27 year old Filipinos. That's tough

Been watching you Paul for almost 4 years now
The entertainment is priceless with you and the HILARIOUS entourage.
Goldfinger is an absolute HOOT!!
Never really thought of relocating to the Philippines/Dumaguete
but NOW after serious reassessment It might be a go.
70 years young retired 5 years and BORED.
Thank you to you and ALL your guests!!
Thank you AAA I hope you make it over
My dad worked until 85. He couldn't stand the thought of doing nothing. He passed away at 96, God Rest His Soul.
Sorry for your loss.
Unfortunately, most people cannot get past work as their only identity.
I took my mother off the road at age 82 after getting some remarks from people who were concerned about her driving. And then I'm talking car, not motorbike. I think Orville should give up driving alltogether, but certainly refrain from driving two wheelers. Add up his age with the Filipino driving style which is way different from the USA and the terrible road infrastructure that is so typical for the country we all love and I think he whould be tempting fate. He didn't say what his monthly budget is, but if he can afford it I would recommend that he hire a domestic helper (M or F) with car driving experience, then buy himself one of those cheap multicabs. His domestic helper can drive him around, cook for him, clean his house, do the laundry, accompany him to places where he might need an interpreter. When he's not feeling well he can take him to a doctor or a hospital etc. For someone Orville's age, such a helper can be worth his weight in gold.
As long as he's not taken advantage of. He seems a bit naive. Women are a big pitfall for him. At age 84 he's prime for a scammer. Sad but true.
My mother is still driving (Indiana) at 93 and I'm still thriving on a motorcycle since 14 yrs old and working investing construction at 65. I would like the luxury of not riding bikes on the road but as long as margins remain tight and I am alert, I am comfortable riding and encouraging my mother to stay mobile locally.
Good advice
Wow.
How great is this senior citizen. 84 going great to move to the philipines..really brave man...thankyou.
Thank you Geoff
Congratulations on 94,000 subscribers Sir Paul!
Thank you very much!
Congrats Paul's, u deserve that!

Thank you. He definitely is a funny guy.
My man Orville sat there and grinned through the whole interview. I was cracking up at him. That dude was ready to go man!
Excellent interview Paul, I always enjoy when Goldfinger is apart of the show. Great to see Orville is living life and thankful he has the likes of you and Goldfinger. Blessings to all.
Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed the interview with Goldfinger and Orville.
If you can't pick the bike up, you need a lighter bike. If there are none lighter, other options should be explored. That said, way to go Orville! Never give up!
Good advice thank you very much
He Is 84 so he wants makes the most of it whatever years has left God bless 🙌
That’s true
I've heard countless good Samaritan stories about the Filipino people returning lost wallets with the money inside and cell phones. Much more good than bad here. So inspiring, what a pleasant change ✌🏾
Who knew lost wallets would be returned faster than a text message in the Philippines? Truly inspiring!
I've experienced many acts of kindness here in Croatia. It is quite humbling to find the goodness of people exceeds your expectations.
I was riding my scooter from Dumaguete to Valencia one day and my phone fell out of my pocket, two teenage boys stopped a picked it up, caught up with me and returned it. People in the Philippines are much more honest and kind than they are given credit for by many people that have never been here.
I often say that it is a bummer having a 25 year old brain in a 79 year old body.
Got that right
Hats off to Orville. He shows the true American spirit of strength and independence. On the generosity and kindness of Filipinos. The woman at the laundry found 20,000 Pesos in my pocket. She only knew my name and that I went to the gym down the street. She went to the gym to find out where I lived then with her husband found my home and returned the money. For perspective, that is a month’s wage for a typical construction worker.
Wow! How wonderful:)
Wow. Incredible!
I don't know about you, but I think it would have been kind to give her a reward for her time, energy and honesty. 10% of the money she returned would seem appropriate if you can afford it. Now I understand some expats are on a very tight budget and couldn't pay that much. But even if you can only give a few peso's that would be a kind gesture.
@@danielhackney7806 Daniel, YES! That is exactly what I did. I gave her 2,000 Pesos. I had to convince her to take it. At first, she and her husband didn't want to accept my gift. It took both me and my girlfriend seveal minutes (they spoke in the local language so I didn't understand what was said) and eventually it was all smiles.
that was really kind
At 84 he looks great and has a sharp mind. That is so much more important than money. I take care of people 30 years his junior that can barely walk. I hope to have his vigor at that age
Who needs money when you've got vitality like that at 84!
He looks like 84.
@chocolaIs that a bad thing?tecookie8571
If I did not know his age I would have said he looked more like 94
@@chocolatecookie8571 COME ON. THE GUY DOESN'T LOOK A DAY OVER 83.
Hey Paul Old friend, Orville is now my new expat idol!!
Talk about daring, age be damned, devil may care attitude.... that's Orville!! He didn't come to the Philippines to slow down, he came with guns blazing, looking for adventure. 8 days in Duma and already had 3 crashes, put Evil Kneivel to shame!!
😄😅😂🤣
😂 that is true
There is a trick to picking up bikes so even a 100 pound woman can pick up a 900 pound Harley. You face away from the bike and use your legs and use them to push it with your back and hands. There are videos on YT that show it and it’s fairly easy once you get it.
At the same time I sold my 900 pound bike and my 600 pound bike. The big bikes are great for long highway rides, but something small and light would be better for busy cities.
Orville could add crash bars so a bike doesn’t go all the way over and hurt his leg, but a trike would probably be better.
Good advice, Ken
Paul we got to get you that hundred thousand subscriber plaque my friend it's been a long haul you deserve it brother... 😮🎉
So close!
Great video Paul! Goldfinger is the kind of person you want living on your street.
Absolutely
This is an award winning type of interview Paul. Goldfinger always has something going on.
Orville is like most of us. The mind thinks 35, but the body and reflexes are age appropriate. Never to old to chat with a beautiful women.
I kept saying out loud, "Trike, Trike" they will take you anywhere. I came across those Trike operating hours coming back from McDonald's to my hotel. Ended up walking the 1.5 miles back to the hotel.
Slow Down should be the banner on T Shirts for Sleepy Dumaguete 😀
Keep up the good work Paul. Maybe see you end of May.
Maybe Slow Down is the secret message for you to enjoy the sights more in Sleepy Dumaguete!
Orville actually said 13
Wow. Hats off to Orville. I can’t believe he can ride a bike. Not because he’s 84 it’s got to be the size of his balls. To go to the Philippines by yourself to recon to retire at 84 is amazing. I cannot have any trepidation now after watching this !! Thanks guys. Very entertaining !
He has balls alright, and a very cool guy 😎
Orville you the man! My Dad gave up riding his Harley at age 88 because he had to get a new knee joint.. Stay safe…
Thanks a ton for the shoutout! Stay safe out there!
Stay free
Like you guys, I like Mr. Orville and God bless him for still getting around like he does at 84. I wish him all the best in staying in the Philippines. LOVE FROM IOWA! 😊❤❤❤
Thank you
The man is not crashing the bike because it is too heavy. He is crashing due to motor skills, reaction time and eyesight. He is going wide in corners and hitting curbs (that is speed and depth perception) then he is throttling instead if laying off (motor skilss)
Get him a small trike at least he won't fall over as much and have a little more protection.
Also make sure he wears at least a helmet and gloves.
A trike is also better because of debris on the road, not to mention dirt roads...
@@Rwj378folks, this is how men stay youthful, fit, and mentally sharp, let him do as he pleases, bike-wise, he's scratched up like the 13 year old inside his head, let him be the dude he is:)
@@lyceum4177You can see that he's only been there a week and already someone has to look after him! Come on, 84 is too old to be there. He's not safe from women, driving or housing.
@@Rwj378 Agree. I fear for this poor guy frankly.
Good advice
Hi sir Paul! Pls extend my Hi to sir Orville too!!! I used to lived with my family in Lake Jackson, TX where Orville is from. I am Filipino-American subscriber of yours in Pearland, Texas. I was so delighted to see Orville in your vlog. Hope he will have a good time in the Philippines. Btw Iloilo is my hometown and planning to retire there in 10 years. God bless your channel!!! Mabuhay ka!!!
I will extend your hello. Thank you so much for watching my channel.
I like how you keep the flow going and redirecting when needed. Great interview and I wish Mr Orville the very best
You are very kind 😇
He is his own worst enemy. Hope he slows down just a little. With the way things are going in the USA even living in the Philippines may be a problem if you are on a fixed income. I have decided to stay in the USA, live the RV van life as a nomad, and enjoy the outdoors for the rest of my life. I don't think my income will be able to keep up with the rising costs even in the Philippines. The women in the Philippines are great, but that would only add to my expenses. Good luck, guys.
SMART MAN.
Thank you for the advice Corvette
Are you waking up with somebody? Then you need to be in the Philippines.
@@sorry9388 I am fine right here in the USA for now.
@@Go4Corvette you’re just like me when I’m in the US. No Girls talking to you, no girls care about you, alone day after day. You’re missing out.
Goldfinger congratulations. I can’t believe you stayed quiet the first few minutes good on you😀🌴🌴🍺 Oreville, you need zero motorcycles, but you definitely need two girls one on each arm 😍😍
Who needs motorcycles when you can have two girls on each arm, right?
Living his life the way he chooses, which at 84 its worked good for him so far, just a few scratches on his introduction to Philippine life. The positive is his accident didn't involve a local so he wont have to buy a family a new carabao and 10 chickens
That’s true 😂
Poor Orville can't get a word in edgeways.
😂
Wonderful interview and a great story about the phone. I wish him the best, thank you so much.
All my best Joe
Wonderful video! Thanks to you and Goldfinger for befriending Orville. I think Orville will always be young at heart.❤
Much respect for Orville. At age 84 and getting into the Philippines 🇵🇭 game is amazing. He gives hope for youngsters like me age 61. Getting close to retirement time for me. Now planning to return and retire in the Philippines 🇵🇭.
That’s awesome David
HELLO EVERYONE MY BEAUTIFUL PHILIPPINE PEOPLE FROM HOUSTON TEXAS USA THANKS PAUL 🇺🇲🇵🇭🙏
Thank you, Mark
I am from Freeport, Texas and I am 71 years old. I graduated in 1970. The last graduating senior class between Clute, Lake Jackson, and Freeport at Brazosport Senior High School. Then Brazoswood went up to the 11th Grade. Another friend of mine from Freeport he graduated in 1968. He lives near here I ended up missing meeting up with him about 2 weeks ago. His name is David Knoebel. I lived at 420 west fourth street. My dad retired from Dow Chemical Company also as a pipe fitter and welder in 1968. He worked there about 30 years.
It's amazing to hear about your connections and memories from Freeport! Sounds like you have a rich history there.
I’m 72 no problem driving 110 bike great in town easy to control.
Best in luck Orville great video Paul
🇵🇭✝️🇵🇭
Thank you, Stan
I'm also 72, living in Moalboal and get around on a Suzuki i125 Mio, it's perfect for getting around town
Another great video Paul. Good information, great advice and the trials and tribulations of a nice guy. You wrapped it up in a single video. All of you guys are a group, I'd love to one day meet when I visit the PI ! Live your best life Paul, and I'll keep watching until it's my time !!!
Thank you, Ted
Goldfinger
He's the man, the man with the Midas touch
A spider's touch
Such a cold finger
Beckons you to enter his web of sin
But don't go in
😂
This made my day！I couldn’t stop laughing😅😅😅
Keep 'em coming buddy! I been watching you for about a year and I love yer interviews! Props 2 you!
Thank you, Sean
Orville needs to activate “Find My” on his Apple devices.
Kudos to you and Goldfinger helping Orville get settled. Yes places do a hotel review!
On my list
Orville, hire a driver to take you anywhere on your bike.
Good advice Koya
Thanks for putting it out there. Your friends are entertaining as heck!
Thank you, Eric
When you check back with this guy in 3 months I guarantee you he's going to have a black tank top on with flame borders wearing sunglasses with two 25 year old women in both his arms
Haha, that's a bold guess! Let's see how it turns out in 3 months!
And a golden chain around his neck, haha. With the B-sign of Bitcoin, hahaha.
Lol😂👍👍😂
Well, let's just pray he's still alive.
What a wild child. Wanna be like him when I grow up.
Yes, when you reach his age and you haven’t grown up. You don’t have to. 😂
Thank you very much, Michael
I see people suggesting buying an electric three wheeler. At his age and reflex time I really believe that your advice on just hiring transportation is the only way to go. This has all the characteristics of a disaster in the making. Just look at the first week. He should consider getting a 2 bedroom and hire a full-time maid/caregiver to help him with all his needs. A little help from a caregiver could turn this potential shitshow into a great experience and help out a local with a job. Thank goodness Goldfinger is there to help him for now. We know you make a little coin for doing the vlog but we also know that it is not worth the trouble and work and we truly appreciate the fact that you have given of yourself in what should be retirement to help others wanting to enjoy life there. Thank you, Brother and May God Bless.
Thank you, Tony. God bless you also.
That's life buddy.age doesnt matter .as long as u can still walk ,breathe do what u gonna do.freedom is contagious but enjoyable what more if u have someone to share and care for u ❤️❤️.Go go go.God bless.Cheers🎉🎉❤❤
Thank you for your comment
Great info!....To many guys are used to the US way of doing things and are always rushing around. It is somewhat natural to want to establish shelter first (which he did by getting a hotel) but as you and Goldfinger both said, there is no rush. It was great that he already knows to stay in Duma proper so as able to use public transport etc. He has his base established and now can branch out and do some real looking on the "where would I like to live" aspects. It is great that he met both you and Goldfinger as you will help him slow roll his transition to his new life. That's great you are willing to help out a fellow expat!
Thanks, guys like Orville make it all worthwhile
Irrepressible spirit of life. I FREAKING LOVE IT!
Thank you, George
I wish Goldie would have his own channel. Goldies just too hilarious as always!!!
Maybe one day!
@@paulinthephilippinesolddog9234 - What ever happened to Goldfingers friend Darrel/Darrin? He was also in a motorbike accident. How about a video update on Darrel/Darrin? And also have Goldfinger there too..
Nice conversation! Orville is an amazing guy ! Goldfinger is so cool and helpful ! Needless to say Old dog is kicking ass ! Cheers !
Hi Paul.
Great 👍 interview with the "newcomer" Orville and also Goldfinger.
Orville seems to be a great guy and with a little help and direction, I think he will fit well in the Philippines. It may or may not be in Dumageti but also like you mentioned Paul,..Cebu could be a good place for him.
Thanks and keep up the great work.
Thank you very much for watching
Orville is one badass mofo! Thanks for the email Goldfinger!
Hi Paul,
I really enjoyed this interview and these fellows are very down to earth. I tip my hat to Goldfinger for his kindness. Orville is awesome.
Thank you very much, Mark
Paul This is one of your finest, informative, and entertaining videos.Many thanks lot to Orville and Goldfinger for their time, and thanks to Mae for putting Goldfingers Email onscreen. Im just about to email him for the Ebook now. Best Regards John
Thank you John
Paul, I have watched you for years now. I am 73 now, but at 51 I married a woman originally form Cebu who was 48 at the time. She had been here in the states, working for a patent attorney for around 12 years and was a widow. I have been to Cebu many times and you are correct about the great condo places to live for expats. My wife has no desire to ever live in the Philippines again so there is no chance we would ever move there. Luckily, in retirement our finances are such that we don't need to think about that option as so many of the expats going to the Philippines. When I hear you interview men who go to the Philippines as seniors, their motivation always gets down to money and then women.....usually the quest for younger women. I can understand the financial situation for sure......having limited finances as an elderly person in the U.S. is a huge strain. The quest for younger women is kind of sad to me. I have to give it to 84 year old Orville. There is no way that I would even entertain a move to another country, let alone a 3rd world country half way around the world at 73.......and he is 84. I also can empathize with him wanting companionship at 84. If anything ever happened to my wife I would be beside myself with grief and loneliness. BUT, Orville needs to be realistic. Look for a woman in her 70's on up to your own age!!!! Any woman less than that is after you only for money knowing that you likely will not live much longer. Personally, I would never leave America at my age as this is where my kids and grand kids are.....it is where my personal support group of family is as I age out, even though they live all over the country. But, again.....I give it to Orville.....he is on maybe his one great last adventure.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Good advice, Jeffrey
You are exactly where you should be. All the reasons you listed are perfect for you.
Wow, nearing 100,000 subscribers! Congrats Paul!
Thanks! 😃
What a lovely guy a true legend bless
Orville you have a great attitude, please be safe and smart during your adventures. Goldfinger thanks for being a good friend. Paul, I’d really enjoy hearing again from Orville before he returns home to hear about his Philippine adventures. Great interview and video, thank you.
Thank you so much for watching Michael
God bless and keep them safe wherever they are !!!!!!!
84 and a Girl in Her 20's ? - Holy Moses !
😂
Paul, Goldfinger, I know Orville. I am from Lake Jackson Texas too. I met Orville in the Lake Jackson library around 10 or so years ago. I have a video of him that will crack you two up. I laughed and laughed at what he did. I asked his permission to video him and he said yes, then did it again on camera. He is a hoot. Him being over there chasing girls does not surprise me lol.
Paul I have been listening to some of your tutorial videos a lot the last few days, paying more attention to your advice since I'm moving there shortly. Goldfinger I got your email address and want one of your ebooks too. I am getting really excited about getting there. When my house up here sells I've got 😢to run back to the Texas Gulf Coast to take care of business there, see half a gazillion friends, then boogie on over to the Philippines. Rose and I talked all night (all day her time) yesterday. She and her younger sister will meet me at the Cebu airport, the 3 of us will stay in a hotel there 2 or 3 days then we will go to Dumaguete and hopefully meet up with y'all and pick y'alls brains some more. I have lived in Europe but I got transferred there by the company in Houston I worked for. They handled all the paperwork etc for me, I did get a bank account there so my check each month could be deposited in it but I also used my debit card from my American bank. This time I have to arrange and set everything up and it's slightly overwhelming.
I need to talk to you guys.
I'm stoked. I am so anxious to get there.
Good, enjoyable video.
I am 81 and have a Honda 250 Rebel which at 45 MPH feels like I am doing 100 MPH. I also have a Harley Super Glide Custom. It is much more comfortable at road speed. But it is too heavy for me now and I have dropped it twice. I plan to get rid of the Harley. I wish I had gone to Southeast Asia more than a decade ago. That is a fantastic story about his phone.
Thank you very much, Jim. be careful out there on those bikes
I’m inspired by Orville and glad he’s okay! Hi Paul I’m Steve, a longtime viewer and a new subscriber. I have really enjoyed watching your channel and I always enjoy your very informative interviews. I have visited Cebu in 2017 and just fell in love with the Philippines. I had never been to a place so beautiful and have never met people so helpful and friendly. Ever since that trip I have been researching, planning a return trip and I’m planning to retire somewhere in the Philippines. I finally met a wonderful Filipina that I am going to meet in person and I am so excited. She is a province girl from Cebu. I just wanted to say hello and thank you for all of the videos that you put out. They have all been very informative. I’m sure I will have a lot of questions about making the big move. I hope someday we can have a beer together and get acquainted. Thanks again.
Thank you so very much, Steve. I look forward to meeting you one day.
Great Video Sir Paul 😊. I wish the Best for Orville 👍. Always enjoy Sir Goldfinger. My brother from a different mother 😂.
Keep the video's comin.
Stay Safe 💕 💞 🙏 🙏
Im a Physical Therapist and works with these population around the 80s and up and most of them are still independent here in the US , drives their car and can still function in the community. But here in the US the infrastructure are a lot safer for elderly compared in the Philippines. I think he should just hire a driver he can pay as needed, they dont costs that much. Or maybe his future girlfriend may be able to take care of that. Best of luck and have fun in the Philippines 🇵🇭
That’s true great advice
Good advice
glad Goldfinger is there watching over him. Definitely needs a 3 or 4 wheels to ride
Here’s the plan. Stay a few months and then get real and go home.
And forget motorcycles
This is pure insanity
@@TheAlsadler Agree totally.
👍🏻
Im listen too, 57 love channel been watchin for 2yrs now ❤❤❤
Thank you so much Jefe Lee
I worked and lived from age 53 to 62 in Lake Jackson Walmart as an overnight stocker; till 2017 when we came to Dumaguete. Had a shack on the San Benard River. Two girls born there. Only place in the US worth a damn.
On the nightshift ? Would of been boring job though 😅
That’s very interesting Dashley
Aw gee whiz, Paulie... how come I always get stuck at the Kids Table for dinner? Orville was truly a treat and I really enjoyed spending time with the three of you! To be honest, I think Orville is gonna make it here. He has the right attitude, his expectations are reasonable, and he has made friends with Goldfinger and the Old Dog (me too, actually)! As for me, I was much happier hiding off-cam. Cameras are NOT my friend, so it's better if I avoid scaring the bejeezus out of your subscribers, Paul! I hope Orville's next few weeks are a lot less eventful, at least from the standpoint of operating a motorcycle in the Philippines. Perhaps an e-Trike might be more suitable, at least until he fully recovers from his calamity. Thanks for another great interview, Paul, and thanks for the social interaction. I was almost worth the price of admission. 🤣
Was great to finally meet you today, let's get together again soon!
@@paulinthephilippinesolddog9234 You can count on it!
.... Only one watching and listening ....?
Not true!! I'm also watching and, especially, am listening. For all the reasons Orville just enumerated -- and some similar others♥
Thank you for watching and listening! I appreciate your support.
I think that Or Orville will return to your channel in three months with his 22 year old girlfriend and a smile on his face.
😂Thank you for watching James
The trains in Manila also have a special car for seniors. Love the Philippines.
I’m 47 and rode big bikes back in the US and I’m in the Philippines now and I ride a Genio 110 and it’s perfect here because it’s so light and easy to ride and I’m 200lbs.
3 lovely gents! Thank you for this vlog, and best of luck to Orville.
Thank you, Paul
I am 82 y/o and yes I remember DumagueteI had 7 weeks there last year. If at McDonald's or any other fast food place and if 20 people were waiting to order most people would insist that I go to the front of the queue. I had plenty of time, but I would go and spend a minute talking to 20 people waiting to order. It used to be the same in Thailand but not so much since COVID.
Orville Knievel 🏍️
😂
Good thing he had some astute advice from Goldy about riding at 84 !!
Cebu was great advice! And they do have elder-care condos available, catering to people like him.
Thank you Ironic
Really enjoy the input from Goldfinger!
Would like to see more of Goldfinger and hear his stories.
Also, I’m really hoping we get another update from John and life is still treating him well.
Keep up the good work Paul 👍
Thank you, Paulie We will see
Orville should buy what Bud Brown drove. At 84 years old, it can be really hard on the body in a trike and I know I didn't like it even in my late 50s and especially now in my 60s. It is important at his age to not to break a hip. A broken hip in elderly can lead to death within 2 weeks to one month, usually not up to 12 months if you Google about it. I know this on many occasions through my line of work earlier in life. Btw Paul, my name is a personal joke between my Asawa and myself.
Good advice, Mr.
Another great video Paul. Love the work you and Goldy are doing there. Good people. Would like to meet both of you,and of course Baby Mae as well. I have recently " adopted " a family on Mindanao, and am helping them with grocerys. Keep up the great work
Sounds good to me!
If you are interested in Catholic Churches. You must go to Cebu City. They have Magellan's cross. There's also a very famous Catholic Church about an hour outside the city up on a mountain.
Thank you Lavon
Are there synagogues in the PI? Is there a Jewish community?
Yes! Chabad in Cebu is close to Dumaguete.
Team Goldfinger!

Oval should look into the Yamaha tri-City 125 two wheels in front one in the rear) or an electric 3 wheeler (0ne in the front 2 in the rear)
Another great video, love from Philippines Antics
Thanks guys
@ 11:41 a security guard was giving you guys the "I see trouble makers" eye. LOL
I tell you always attracts expats with great sense of humors.
.. Can you please give us an "Update on Orville"....? .. Thank You .. Salamat ..🙏😇👀
Jeez.....do they sell Ozempic in the Philippines?
Another great video Paul- you are the man
Thank you very much, Bill
I've been a subscriber and watching your channel for four years. I think this is the funniest episode you've posted. Go get them Orville!
Yes,
Orville is a character
Orville, I hope you find your pace and find your own paradise in Dumagette. And yes Goldfinger is like Paul's evil nemesis. That's not evil at all. 😂😂😂
Goldfinger and Paul, the ultimate showdown in Dumaguete!
Orville is a young 84. Paul is still a humorous guy. Maybe one day I'll make it to Dumaguete again. I was there the last time briefly in 2018.
Come back and hang out!
I will try and save money and do so. @@paulinthephilippinesolddog9234
He should be going to Pattaya at that age !!!!
