    I have been watching Paul since he started making videos.
    I'm married to a Filipina since 2012. His way of telling stories and his amazing laughs make me laugh a lot too😅 . Congratulations on this interview. You were born to ask good questions. Keep going. Cheers 🍻

    I moved to Philippines at 36, been here close to a decade now. My recommendations to younger people living here is frugality, independence, and stay fit. I was an mechanic then an engineer. I can fix just about anything. I cook all my own food from whole foods from the local market. I can live in the province if need be. Make do with what you have, it is not a developed country and they do things differently. As Jimmy Buffett sang "Breathe in, Breathe out and move on." Lifting weights and cardio keeps the medical issues and Dr away, yes it is hot, you can get used to it. Find a good Filipina and she will treat you great. Cheers!

    Paul is one of the good guys. I've met him personally. He has an amazing ability to be lighthearted in almost every situation. I hope someday that I can achieve his level of good heartedness and positive thinking. My hat is off to the man.

    I am in love with a Filipina that I met online. So my exposure to the Philippines had always been her and her little life. So when I made my first trip I found I was overjoyed with her but I'm not at all impressed with the country. In the cities I see the hopelessness of severe poverty in an inescapable 360 degree view. The children there are allowed to or possibly forced to fend for themselves. Children begging everywhere you go, there's just no getting away from it. I've travelled extensively throughout SE Asia and I don't see it anywhere near the degree I see in the Philippines. I am a charitable person but I could give everything I own and it wouldn't even begin to make a noticeable dent.
    My plan is to build my own personal little oasis in the countryside and live in my own private little (artificial) paradise. But as for the cities and populated areas, I find them to be just full of soul crushing despair and abject poverty. I will only go to the cities on an as needed basis. And of course my sweetheart just says as long as she can be with me everyday she will be happy anywhere.

    Great video interview with Paul from "Paul Old Dog New Tricks"
    He's a great story teller and seems to be a terrific guy that you can have a coffee or a beer with. Paul has a great wealth of knowledge , experience and insight that makes it always a great experience listening to him.
    Thanks and keep up the good work.

    Same here. I visited Thailand in 2014 and knew that I would retire there. (I was 56 then) Since then, after looking over what other destinations were available, I've settled on the Philippines as *The Destination*. Retiring in a few days, then settling with family, and I'm off.

    Paul’s last thought is absolutely spot on!
    Younger people in the west do not appreciate how privileged a lifestyle they live until facing true poverty. Then they discover their inner self…some will change becoming a better person, others will turn nastier towards fellow human beings. Philippines is a journey of discovery and I love it.

    All are welcome in the beautiful Philippines 🇵🇭. Young, middle-age, seniors. Young people are wondering how they can live comfortably with a nice Filipina and survive living by the beach or mountains. I believe that alot of Filipinas wants security. If you have a steady check and dedicated to your Filipina, you will live forever. Always remember that you make your dreams come true, no one can tell you different. Paul is a very honest person. He is telling the truth about life in the Philippines. Philippines 🇵🇭 will always be top places to visit and most definitely retire. PERIOD.
