i broke my back when i was a mechanic and a car feel off the lift and hit my back. it took me six years with a wife and three kids to finally get ssdi. and when i got it i was getting 700 bucks a month. i was young so i did not have a chance to build my wealth yet and ssdi is based on your earning. so i was awarded 700 a month. well that does not even pay my rent. i was forced to live in a shed and lost my family.. but several years later i found out about the phillipines and that same 700 bucks over there i was suddenly about to buy a brand new motor bike and paid it off in three years. i was able to lease a plot of land and even built a modest house and now i have a new better life and WAY WAY better wife.
When I was in Turkey food was amazing and even the soda tasted different and I'm not a soda drinker. Women flirty they insist on feeding you making your belly full the old architecture, archeology amazing. Then I came back to America I soon as I touched down depressed wanted to go back overseas I couldn't eat the food here when I came back my health felt better when I was in Turkey! Just renewed my passport I wanna get out here just don't know where yet! Thanks for your stories and inspiration
@@AllergicFungusyou are welcome just process a legal papers I am here in Benguet Province. You can visit Baguio City which is in Benguet Province Cordillera.
I was attacked 2 days ago by a knife wielding Filipino. My Filipino family in law destroyed my home and belongings. Do not come here! I am shocked and the police to absolutely nothing in both cases. Met a guy today who was mugged as a taxi kicked him out in a street where 2 thugs were already waiting to steal his belongings again police did nothing not even a report. Stay away from here it's getting worse since Duterte was replaced by Marcos.
@@thegreatpyramidsrevealedthat's true. Marcos administration are getting worst. Even me citizen pilipino. I don't like administration now. I like the duterte administration. MYBE next year's will be change the presedent. To DUTERTE.
There is this british vlogger who moved to philippines with his wife, he was suffering epilepsy but when they moved to philippines the frequency reduced until it was gone. Healthy body
I'm in Davao City, southern part of the Philippines, and built the house of 3 foreigners married to Filipina (Australian, Dutch,American). I will build your house if you decide to live here, low-fair cost is not impossible if you let me.
My husband and I are planning to go back to the Philippines and retired there . And my husband is worried because He is American and never been outside the U.S and I told him . Expand your horizons and learn to live a simple life . 🙏🙏
Your husband needs to get out more. By traveling he can see what we do well in the states and what other countries are doing well. His perspective on life just might change by exposing himself to the rest of the world.
We moved a few months ago and we loved it here. My autistic son went to SPED school and his behavior improved since we got here. My 10 year old daughter likes the public school so far. She said she makes a lot of friends in the public school in the Philippines and she is got here back her confidence. We live in the province of Iloilo and everything is cheap.
It’s a lot way better raising kids in the Philippines than here in US. You can see the difference of how kids enjoy their childhood there than in the US. Too bad my husband has a lot of expensive medications and can’t cover that all there.
Brother you are most welcome here in the Philippines. No racial discriminations, Filipinos are so friendly, hospitable, helpful, kindhearted, compassionate, and can speak English, even the little kids can communicate in English. It's in our culture, way back in the history when during World war 2, when the Jews has no where to go because of the death threat of the Nazi regime under Hitler, when millions where put to genocide, the intentional destruction of the Jewish race and millions were killed. But there was only one country that was open to accept the holocaust victims and received with an open hands by then Pres. Manuel Quezon of the Philippine's who at least 1,300 Jewish families refugees where repatriated to Marikina, Philippines and were adopted. Also in the 1950's during the Korean war, in spite of the hardship of the war crimes by Japan to the Philippines. Our country then was still healing from the ruins and destruction brought about by the incident of war, sent military troops to South Korea to help them fight the communist from the North and Chinese communist. Not to mention the Chinese, Muslims, Indians, other Asians, Americans who migrated here for good. This is really the Filipino traits and culture to help others in need, though we are materially poor but thankfully spiritually a GOD fearing nation. May the Lord in heaven graciously help you & have a peaceful life here in the Philippines.
yes thats very true kabayan, best discription to our beloved country Pilipinas! and to our people, if I may Add to our refugees that we accepted after WW,2 are the 6,000 White Russians, no Country want to accept them as their refugees coz they are still recovering economically coz or War but only 1 Country Our Pres. Elpidio Quirino stood up and Accept them to be our refugees, they stayed at Tagbubu Island in Guian, Samar, Im so touched and moved to tears and soo proud of our race Filipinos for wat our Ancestors did for the Whole World to see and imulate. , Godbless us all🙏🙏🙏🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Truly Indeed..my husband wants to visit our country too..the Embassy here told him to live in Phils for 2 years so that he can acquire Filipino passport...
I am a American, finished my home in Philippines 5 years ago worked in U.S. while finishing it. My wife has been a good manager of construction. We are involved in Hotel, farming, Tourism, have a wonderful life, I couldn't do this in America nowadays, they want to destory the life our family in the past built. GOD BLESS.
As a FILIPINO,,,my Country and people are not PERFECT..but what can we genuinely offer is LOVE.HOSPITALITY and RESPECT and we expect no more no less than that what we can offer..!!!..Our Women are not for sale but as long as FOREIGNER'S (trait)treat them right,,We Filpino Men will be Thankful..that for one is a FACT..
I agree... i would rather see my filipino sisters happily married to a foreigner rather than married to a douchebag who makes her punching bag when drunk. Also, Filipinas produced highbreed that turns to out be pretty/handsome and athletic 😂 basta pinay magaling 😂
Could you share some knowledge? What kind of income (not quantity) are you getting to live there if it's not disability? Are you working there? Started a business? Passive income? I'm 37, teach me please.
you have a plan? budget? exit plan? and most important hobbys? Im 51 and retired in Philippines and Thailand and i promise u beaches and vacationlife gets pretty boring pretty fast and bar and seedy ladys life kills you and your economy pretty fast..so u must have hobbys or ur be bored of ur skull =)
@@gmm5550 Wow! That's interesting information coming from someone who lives there. If you don't mind me asking. Are you involved with once woman, or still , , , searching? Curious as to how life goes there while in a relationship or if a relationship can be easily had.
As a US Marine: I Lived in the Phillipines for 19 months. That place is loaded with retirees and disabled Americans. Yes you can live there comfortable and the people are amazingly great....Even the ghettos are packed with good people, can't say that in Chicago, New York, LA, or Boston
Almost every country is better than the US, Mexico is better in many respects, worse in others. Same as the other 20 plus countries that I've been to. American foods have to many chemicals, the cigarettes have a lot more chemicals, and they don't try to get you addicted to a medication to have to keep returning to the doctor. I haven't been to the us for 72 hours in close to three years. I'm all over the map, just enjoying life. Raise one for Gunny, he bit it when I was in Colombia, I couldn't make the funeral, but I flew back to Texas from Colombia to visit his grave when I got paid the next month.
@@christopheramador9886 Sorry, No country is better than the US, none, and I've been around the world several times. American food is every culture so you just ate the wrong food...you must mean fast food....That's not why I like the Philippines.
@@Special-Opss I disagree, if the US is better, then you'd be living there. You are in the Philippines, so you must think it's better, or you'd be in the US.
US must be very bad as Philippines is not what this guy says....corruption rape drugs mayhem theft mugging cops don't care less and that's just the tip of the iceberg. DO NOT GO TO THE PHILIPPINES it's dangerous and you will be attacked and using self defence you'll end up in a prison and never seen again. THIS VIDEO IS A TOTAL DECEPTION AND LIES!!!! TRUST ME I AM TRAPPED HERE!!!
That guy may have a disability issue but he is intelligent. Men are practical. He made the decision based on America squeezing the life out of its citizens which was not viable for him anymore. He has a better quality of life now, so good for him.
FACT: Dating Filipino/Filipina, they prefer simplicity. They even want a friendly kind of dating where you treat your bf/gf as a true friend that you enjoy your moments rather than expending money. The choose moments over money for a date. They choose simple date or even a walk, chatting like a common friend on the street or just having fun, jokes, singing, telling more about you or knowing each other (no candles, wine, chocolate needed) at home or on the place that is safe for the two of you. Actually, they choose the field (nature) over expensive restaurants or hotel. That kind of woman are true and they really want it simple. Genuine love, respect and getting to know each other in a simple way.
Yes, that's because you're considered rich by their standards coming from a develop country. The locals struggle to survive just like you in your home country in the US... West.
Yes. I am an expat married to a Filipina I met in Baguio City. Its been over 45 years of marriage and enjoying every moment in the US. But we plan to live there soon.
@@Kitiwake I didn’t call them savage - that’s a you thing. But a full cleanse is objectively superior. Old man emphasizes critical thinking - maybe you should try it.
I'm in Makati visiting my future wife; the first thing that I'm for buying for my stateside bathrooms is a bidet; I don't know how I live without one; this would have saved me a fortune during covid
Here in the Philippines racism is seen as normal we don't put deep meaning or bad meaning to it we just accept what we are and we tell you straight in the face what we see in you it's not like we are rude we are just being honest not in a bad way. I have a friend here who is black and I started to call him negro like "asan si negro"(where's negro) at first he hated it but after I explained it to him then calling him negro here in the Philippines doesn't bear a meaning like racism in the US but a distinction that he's black and we call out friend in like nicknames of what they are different from others. After that he calls me "Gago"(idiot) and accepts it and use negro now as he's nickname and introducing himself "just call me negro". He's other black friend was shocked when he visited Philippines and we call our buddy negro and he's friend respond like it was his name hahaha we are laughing at him
I bought a cheap bidet toilet attachment during covid. For 60 bucks I still have it and use it every day. I haven't bought toilet paper since. That $60 dollars on that has saved me hundreds in toilet paper over the last few years. I have told my friends that they should get one and they are against it because they do not want to wash their butt with cold water or they seem scared of trying it. It is so much better than toilet paper.
I use a bidet at home here in the US and I prefer it. It is definitely more hygienic and refreshing. The only downside is, that since I’m in the US, I can use it only in my home since they’re not a staple of American public restrooms 🚽😑
I love ❤️ 🇺🇸 AMERICA especially as a military 🪖 veteran. I have lived in Japan, Korea 🇰🇷, Kuwait, Saudi 🇸🇦 Arabia, Marshall Islands 🇲🇭 🏝 and of the Philippines 🇵🇭 😄 ❤️. I am age (61) and spent about (18 plus) years overseas. I do have plans to return and retire in the Philippines 🇵🇭. Under the American Military 🪖 veteran Philippines 🇵🇭 sponsored SRRV VISA program. Thank you for this video 📹.
Phils.is d best country to retire,our retirement goes a long way,cheap cost of living,thats y many u.s.veterans in my home town in angeles city,pamp.where clark air base is near by u.s.naval base stay for good in d phils.
Thank sir for choosing my country in Philippines for your retirement I can assure you that the people of Philippines are friendly and hospitality. Hope someday if you decide living in Philippines choice a good place to living a simple life and invest for daily income. Hope I'm one of your friend when the time comes.
My seventh year in SE Asia . Six in Vietnam 🇻🇳 and now the Philippines 🇵🇭. I’m 74 years old now. I have a small pension and a small savings account. I live with dignity frugally for around $1000 USA 🇺🇸 per month. At home in New Zealand had to live in a campgrounds and barely was able to.
I can truly agree that I feel safer here than in America. I walk through different neighborhoods by myself during my 5 to 6 mile walks and never have to be worried about being attacked or chased down and shot because I am of a brown skin race. Pretty much every American immigrant over here in the Philippines left America because it was not great enough for them to live there. Whether it be the growing hatred, the high cost of living, the lack of humanity, or the dating scene, they felt it was more advantageous to them to move and live here or other countries that are not like America. But you will still see many that will strongly criticize this wonderful country and the openly friendly people here as if being from America makes them better. We moved here in 2023 Jan, because my wife was ready to come home after being gone for 20 years, and since I retired in 2016 from the military, I had zero to lose, but peace of mind to gain. So we bought tickets for us, our dogs and did all the other things needed.. And we left on a jet plane. I love life in the Philippines... It is not perfect by far, but it is the best move I have made since joining the military. Gotta love those bidets.... They have toilets that come with heated water and it feels like throwing the booty in a nice warm shower just for it. My wife's relatives (my family) does use the bucket and the dipper to clean with when they use the toilet. All these fake body, hair, eyes and mess can be summed up like this..... How can you be everybody's dream, and still be somebody's wife? You are correct about sugars being a key factor to America's or even western population illnesses. The standard American diet was designed to keep people sick enough for meds, but not sick enough to kill them before they could be used for profit. But, ALL carbs turn into sugars so they are culprits in the metabolic destruction of the human bodies as well. The only bad thing about the Philippines is that many of their dishes are carb heavy. But since I enjoy a carnivore way of eating, my meals are pretty simplified... Whats for breakfast?? Some type of meat and eggs... Whats for lunch?? Meat and some electrolytes... Whats for dinner??? Beef, eggs and a second type meat and some water. When people learn to eat to live instead of living to eat, the over all health of human beings and our offspring will greatly improve and we will stop feeding the pockets of the medical industry. Eat a proper human diet... PHD.
I am proud to hear these words coming from foreigners, how they appreciate the Philippines, I hope many Filipinos like me will not forget how to appreciate our own country.
It only the foreigners who have what we call "nagdanas ng kahirapan sa kani kanilang bansa" to appreciate that they are treated like human being in the Philippines.
No lies told here! I’m glad to have traveled a good deal of the world as a Black man! My eyes have been opened! I’ve felt much safer in many other countries!
We Filipinos have great respect to foreigners. Why? Because we don't want our relatives or even ourselves to be treated bad abroad. We can feel the same feeling that living in other country is not easy - you don't have somebody to lean on when something's happen. So, when you are a foreigner in the Philippines and you need help, don't hesitate to tell us especially the poor Filipinos. They are the most helpful and hospitable.
America is using us as a stepping stone into the pacific theater of war why do you think they like building bases? They're gonna treat us like the rest of its allies, as fodder to die in their stead in wars they start or end up making us start. It's their modus operandi. Don't be fools
Filipinos have very simple humble way of living ,, Only humble and patient foreigners can have courage to live in our country, but I tell you will not feel discriminated and be treated badly here because we have the saying KAPWA KO MAHAL. .. and that is because Filipinos are very religious and God fearing .
Foreigner is always welcome to our beloved country Philippines , Just love the Philippines and enjoy the happy and peaceful life here in the Philippines... 🇵🇭 Mabuhay
@@kennumnot all filipinos like that maybe you are unfortunate, I have an American in our family now we also give them land in a peaceful province and one in a city haha
We earned the respect as a country.. my beloved Philippines through all these responsible vloggers all over the world..social media gave us A+ as a human being , showcasing our beautiful culture of happiness and respect! Some are ashamed and some completely forgot their roots thinking that "Philippines" the third world country!No pride at all of what we have😢But know look around.. millions of visitors admiring a simple lake,blue water of your backyard and even the "balut" ,Adidas and Bananaque".All these simple things that most of us taken for granted turned out to be the gem of our country and our society!❤ Kudos to all the vloggers who made us proud and realized the beauty of our country!❤Thank you all 🙏❤️
I will pray for this man. I really hope that things work out well for him here. It's not an easy transition, especially adjusting to the tropical climate, the challenged Philippine infrastructure(i.e. gov't services), and the distance from family and friends back home. But so far it's certainly been worth the effort. I've been here in Muntinlupa City (Brgy Sucat) for 16 months now (retired American w Filipina wife) and it feels more like home everyday, so I hope to live here the rest of my days. Beautiful islands, even more beautiful people.
I'm a Truckdriver and have been driving trucks since 2003 I've been Nationwide and Canada driving trucks. I've visited Mexico several times on my own dimes. I've learned how to adapt to what ever environment I am in at any time because it is necessary for survival. Thanks for sharing this story. I have my passport and plan to travel.
Yes, America is very Expensive for Retirement ...The Best is Philippines your life there is simple but happy and enjoy...and everything are very cheap price. Beautiful Country Philippines 🇵🇭
My Country PHILIPPINES 🇵🇭 Have Also Many Differences But You Will Love Here.. Because FILIPINO Are Very Welcomed, Hospitable, Warm Culture, Friendly And Many Other Things To Foreigners Who Come Here ... FEELS LIKE HOME Our COUNTRY... WELCOME TO THE PHILIPPINES 🇵🇭 IT'S MORE FUN IN THE PHILIPPINES 🇵🇭....☝️👊👍🏼🤜🤛❤️🌅
I was struck down at 31 with crushed heel. That changed everything and I had to work three four five times as hard just to get even and stay ahead Now at age 68 I'm sort of coasting but still working hard in a different way than I did before my accident. Edit; My lady of seven years is a Filipina. I'm that One Blessed Man.
i just recently took vacation there in philippines 🇵🇭 for a month. my gut health, arthritis, and sugar was better. now that i’m back here in america i’m feeling it again.
Go back to the Philippines! Maybe the weather or the environment there is better for you than in the US, especially if you stay in the provinces near the beach or mountains, you will get healed.🙏❤️🇵🇭
Y'all! If you move to the Philippines, make sure to take care of your health and have PHILHEALTH!! If you are a US Veteran, make sure to keep in touch with the VA for health benefits.
Hello there, new followers here. I am a Pilipina leaving in America. This story touched my heart it is heartwarming to know that people from the west appreciates my country and my culture. The (Tabo) is the best! I was laughing to the core while watching your video. Actually I saw this video a couple weeks ago from the original upload, everything your said about America and about another country like the Philippines is very true. Thank you for sharing.#proudpinay ❤
How i wish my husband still alive, am positive he is going to love living here in the Philippines.. He died due to heart attack here at BGC taguig last December 18 2023
god lead the way for him...the best way he can survive to enjoy his life with disability.Philippine people are kind and generous they are not judgemental
Since I retired and been traveling southeast Asia and eastern Europe, the bidet has been a godsend. I never knew such a thing existed. No more skid marks. The U.S. should adopt it, and the roundabout.
$1000 dollars a month equals 55,000 pesos in the Philippines. The average filipino makes 6,000-12,000 pesos a month. That should put your mind at ease.
With all the fun he is having? If you look around Manila, you see poverty all around. You see children begging, you see see children, even adults sleep on the banquetas. But its the family and fun. I mean caring for their children to grow up. You see wives and husbands having adulterous affairs: "Nagkabilang bahay na. There hope. I just pray a lot of our OFW's realize that time with the family is now and there is no "catching" up. No balang araw, magsasama tayo muli."
Human compassionate, hospitality and reselient are some traits that we can be proud of..Im here workjng in US but stil willl retire soon in Philippines.Proud to be Filipino ❤
I've watched Living abroad's interview with this guy and yes, when I see older people with disability when I'm out and about I always think back of others like them who are somewhere else in SE Asia living healthy, happy and relaxed life even with a limited income.
be financially prepared. Be mentally and physically strong. The heat here in the Ph is so bad, it ranges from 34 to 41 in some areas due to El Nino. have a hobby, join some groups here. Otherwise, you'll be bored
@@MakaiIELTS , I have lived many years in tropical countries, so I have an "unfair" advantage. My main goal is to make the relationship with my special lady work. Fortunately I know how to occupy myself during the day.
It's not just sugar. American livestock is fed corn which is difficult for animals to digest and stresses the animal out physically. That can't be healthy to eat. It even affects the taste. In Japan(probably most of Asia) chickens are fed rice. Eggs actually taste better in my opinion.
Agree any tourist our beloved country please respect our country, people culture. I am Filipina living here in Canada for almost 40 years. I really miss Philippines
I know this channel. It's a small guy and the interview is mainly philippine women. I'm on his to ask the scriptures channel. A long time ago. He's honest because you don't save things all good. He tells the truth that there's bad things there too and you're not guaranteed to get a woman. Depending on who you're talk to I like his honesty cause everybody keeps saying Philippines philippines is the best place not necessarily.
They are kind to you because they are interested in foreigners. And also their money. if you cross them, you will be discarded quickly. They are Filipino first. And colorism there is everywhere the lighter the better.
Philippines is a very beautiful Place The Fact that people are kind and helpful and you could see smile on their faces even some of us lived in a puberty we are still happy in life we never forget to Enjoy life as always as be We learn To keep Ourself To be humble and we learn from are parents To respect , be honest We are very welcome when it comes to people coming from different countries We are proud That Alot of people Visit the Philippines and Let the whole world know That you can start To live A life Here And enjoy As well here in the Philippines with the People have some Friends and Drink Together sing together You can go Nice Beaches like in palawan and Boracay and foods as well are Delicious and People here in the philippines speak English as well
I'm here in USA FOR 52YRS, AND I'M STILL WASHING MY BUM WITH SOAP AND WATER RELIGIOUSLY. VERY REFRESHING. PLANNING OF GOING BACK HOME TO MY PILIPINAS KUNG MAHAL.
Hi I stay in Philippines for 3 months my sugar was good no pain I come back here in us I back to pain doctor appointments every week.. I can’t wait to go back home for good
The big thing about the Philippines, DON'T DO DRUGS. They have harsh laws on drugs. This is why they don't have strung out homeless. If you crack down on crack, you will have less long term homelessness and crime.
thank you for appreciating your presence in my country.. welcome to the philippines 🇵🇭. good people deserve to have the best in life.. may you all have healing, happiness that you want in life.. good luck 🍀 everyone ❤
Philippines is the only country that helps overstaying foreigners aslong as they never involved into fight, we dont mind foreigners staying, we are not greedy people, We filipino treat them very kind!
I actually have an American friend who experienced being homeless. He is rich now but when I asked him would you be willing to be homeless in the US or in the Philippines... and without a pause he would immediately answer the Philippines.
Best thing the Navy did for me was stationing me overseas. I love my country but living abroad during that time showed me that you can have a good life in other places too and America is not the end all be all. I go to the Philippines every year. My GF and soon to be wife is from there and we both plan to retire there in a few more years… I absolutely love it there
THE PHILIPPINES IS VERY DIFFIRENT THAN ANY COUNTRIES. WE HAVE OUR CUSTOMS & TRADITION.. WE ARE A COUNTRY OF FAMILY ORIENTED COUNTRY..... WE TREAT & RESPECT PEOPLE IN ALL WALKS IN LIFE!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Filipino who moved to the US for years and eventually returned back to the Philippines. Working online and best decision ever. I don't also recommend Manila unless you're very rich
I traveled to Europe and Russia in the 90s three times on student loan money (or by scrimping and saving for a year) in my mid 20s. Don't pass up your youth without traveling (and falling in love). Life goes by quick.
my elder always tells me listen to your elder they are right 😊 more strength to you sir keep showing the younger generation base in your experience what we can change about ourselves 😊😊😊
Obviously as a Filipino, we love to have a different people to live in. There's a saying that...when you're in Rome,do the Romans do. Just a simple respect will do. Welcome to the Philippines ❤
yes good video paul. ive seen this video before. i too am on ssdi i left the states 8 months ago. i live in the philippines too. rent is cheap and people are friendly and there is a woman for everyone disabled or not. im 64 now . iam a white dude and color doesnt matter here or genders. everyone is accepted here. all americans must remember to fill out form 7162 on the social security site which is a im still alive form which will require starting in may. and use a vpn so the site doesnt lock you out ive been told.. if you dont fill the form out they will stop ur bennies then ur screrwed. peace everyone and love ur videos paul
The most care u can find is in the Philippines. I knew this because we Filipinos always with a good heart.even we don't have money but we can offer you a food.
I'm a Filipina, and never ever tell anyone that Philippines is Best , but as a Filipino Citizen, I'm trying to make a living for a good life and live the best of it somehow.
@@erlindafields8897 perseverance.. You don't work, you don't eat so you just have to do it.. You adapt to how little you have and just make the best out of it..
You were looking for propagandized. And agreed, most people who think America is the best have never been anywhere. It’s certainly great, but mostly if you’re rich 🤑
