There is nothing unique about the area that would stop you from living his life in the Philippines. It is a paper bag brown province like every other one.

    Isn't it good that each of us have choices on how to live in the Philippines. His life style is not for me. I like being close to the city(I live in Cebu City) because of hospitals, airport, AC and entertainment all on $1600 a month(4 in the house hold) not counting my new car payment. I just don't have the mindset to "rough it" anymore-getting too old for that.

    I found the interview interesting and informative. I'm 65 and also use natural medicine. My girlfriend of the last years recently has suspicious jealousy. Suspicious jealousy is a type of jealousy in which a person fears the loss of a valued relationship to a rival even though the person's partner has not misbehaved and there is no factual basis for this worry. She's just 24 now and I hope we can work through it. I believe it's the Trust issue that your guest mentioned. It's not wise to marry if there's no trust. Tyt.

      $50 rebt in the provinces I wouldn't say is typical but I would say it is possible, but only if you are willing to live local style and be willing to improve things to your taste on your own dime. You will also probably need to pay one year in advance as a negotiating tactic. $600 e.g. :-)

      It is rare, in my opinion, to get $50 a month rent here in Philippines. For me it happened because my gf is from the provinces, has friends that referred us and we just happened to be the right place at right time.

    $50 I was wondering whether that's for one night or a week. I should have guessed it's for the whole month! How do you find these awesome guests? By the way, your footage is so good Dan and you have so much of it I think you could sell or hire it out to the stock footage or stock photo sites.

    In Thailand it is much the same as far as rental costs etc. I prefer to be as far away from tourist /expat hangouts as possible. Prices are much cheaper and the Thais tend to be much more honest and friendly.

      Expenses vary per person. I have made meals in the Philippines for as little as $1. I suspect what he is talking about is because he is on a specialized diet that includes vitamins and herbs he is taking for his cancer treatment.

    You can pay $0 rent in the US if you really wanted to. I see no point of some individual somewhere in the world paying $50 rent.
    Always fun to hear the guy who solved the mystery of love and found how to find a woman they can't trust for the rest of his life and the love just gets deeper and better. Said every male in the entire history of Homo sapiens in the first couple years being with a woman. There aren't a lot of males getting into a relationship thinking she's Mrs Nightmare.
    It's 11 year-old thinking that you've found your soulmate, BFF. Absolutely enjoy being in love. Trust your mate to some degree. But thinking you can trust another person absolutely in all matters forever isn't very bright. Many of these expats in PH show the problem. So many with stories of problems in their adult life, bad female choices, making bad financial decisions and then they're on UA-cam telling everyone how now they have it all figured out. Rewind the tape and you'll probably see they've been making the same claim over and over throughout their life.

    He didn’t say but at $1000 a month I’m guessing he has a loan he’s paying for the vehicle? Maybe health insurance? Otherwise where’s the money going? Well I guess he did say he spends $20 a day on food so that’s $600 a month.

      $1000 a month out of $1500 so I can save about $500 a month for annual travel back to the states. it's easy to spend 1k for stuff ...and my car is a 2000 Suzuki SUV that needs maintainence however that's also cheap if you find the right mechanic. I just had timing belt, spark plugs, fuel filter, air filter, rear shock absorbers, fuel injectors, clutch and clutch pressure pressure plate, throw-out bearing , 2 universal joints replaced which took a few days to complete, all labor done for 15000 peso.. $263 US. Also dental work , with my current dentist is $130 a crown and $14 for simple filling. Like going back in time as the world just hasn't caught up with this place (yet)😀
