Thanks, Real Gary for watching our channel and sharing your success story we hope it inspires many

Your's and just a very few other channels are my go to channels , not only for entertainment but for familiar insight. I can appreciate you both both both for same as well as individual reasons. Obviously, Crissy for her beauty. I'm no different than any other man in that we are visual creatures and Crissy is very attractive and stimulating to see. Best to both of you.

Old age not Problems F..... Woman's have mostly one Boyfriend between .....🎉🎉😂😂😂

„Age gap“ (the german Auto correction)

@@j.p.1694 ❤️🙏👍

It's not about the age.. Age is just a number annd everyone deserves to love and be loved. Wishing you may find the love of your life..

Once again, thank you for your consistent support. We really appreciate your feedback.

Thanks for sharing that good feedback

🙏❤️👍 Thanks Jean

Thank you so much Timothy for your positive feedback. We certainly appreciate it.

Or boy, or maybe none. Yes, I get the vibe that Chrissy probably wants a child with Rob, but it's their business and not ours. Right?

Thanks, Eric

Thank you! Will do!

Awesome

And how old are you na Amy?

@@ElvisGarciaDeJesus-bl4cf I'm 36. The children are both in college on full scholarships, admitted at age 13 in what would have been 7th grade. We homeschooled. So I started working. It's hard to believe how much money I am making. The employers are frantic to hire foreigners because the American women are lazy, entitled, loud, fat, and incessantly insult our clients.

@@amylee6038 Yes American women or westernized women act like karens. They dont value men the way panays women do. There is not respect for men in general. Congratulations for the two scholarships to your kids. BTW, a 30 years age gap difference can be handled if the woman you married has family values and is God fearing.

Thank you! Will do! Art

Thanks so much! 😊

I do believe it includes adoption and I think you could easily have a child become a US citizen if they were your own genetic offspring or if you were adopted, but this subject has created a lot of subscriber comments many subscribers are more knowledgeable about this subject and it some point I need to get an expert on discuss it

👋 hi Pete great to see you here

Good point

🙏❤️👍

You haven’t missed the boat, trust me. I’m living proof of that.

Thanks for watching our video and thanks for writing and sharing

Go to Bo’s coffee at the fancy Ayala mall - weekdays around 1pm or 10am not sure. Join Facebook Group- search expats in cebu city - ask question on fb group Philippines Expats

You can do it!

It's 90% normal in the right place - 10% seedy if that's what you want. You determine your life - not others.

When starting a search, it’s always good to have a target. It doesn’t mean you have to stick to your target you can deviate and if you meet a girl who has a job or even a girl who doesn’t have a job, but she has all the other characteristics you’re looking for you can make an exception certainly an educated woman is gonna provide you with better companionship And possibly better decision-making, but here in the Philippines people have been prevented from going onto a good education because of lack of funds and you’ll find them to be quite intelligent so you have to keep an open mind

Mark, thanks for providing this great commentary

CENOMAR from psa.com cost around eight US dollars

Fingers crossed!

Thanks for sharing your experience and your thoughts

@@FlyMeToThePhilippines my overall experience with Filipina women has destroyed me . I will stay on my own for the rest of my life. I have never experienced so much disapoimment as what women from Philippines has done to me . I can't handle the lies anymore, i thought this was supposed to be a Christian country.

Thanks Rob for making great videos that inform well. Cheers!

Thanks for the positive feedback and thanks for sharing. I wish you the best of luck.

Thanks, Clint

That’s great to hear Emmanuel. Thanks for sharing your story.

Oh sir biggest mistake taking her to USA.She will drop you like a hot potatoes after she gets green card and settles in a few years You have taken the Filipina out of her and americanizing her bad idea

I see a disaster with this guy coming

There are a lot of really good comments about this subject. I think I need to get an expert and do a complete video on this.

I don’t know where to begin to respond to this comment I guess I’ll just say thanks for watching our video and sharing your views

Yes she is. Congratulations- safe travels, thanks for sharing

❤️🙏

Yes, that’s why we try and interview Expats who have brought Filipina back to the United States to share that experience from other points of view

👍

@@FlyMeToThePhilippines Being 80 years old in the Phillipines is perfect for a woman who is 60+. She will age with you and will take care of you.

Filipina Cupid

It would be interesting. Failure rate in traditional marriage is high add age gap and different cultures and it can be challenging

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this Trent

I miss my kids and my grandchildren

@@FlyMeToThePhilippines how often do you fly back or do they come see you

2500 per month

@@FlyMeToThePhilippines I am not at 2500 but will be over 2000. I have already decided Eastwood City is where I want to live. Everything I could need is close. I also have VA benefits and hope to use it as much as possible for medical, and get added coverage for major needs. I would be there now if I had any retirement savings. I am still working and drawing Social Security so I can put larger amounts into a 401k. What would you consider a minimum amount of emergency funds I would need to have before the move?

@@bobby75044 1. Understand that the VA in Manila is only there for service-related injuries, not for general care. 2. Eastwood City is a more expensive place to live in the Philippines, so you might need $3,200 per month. 3. Every person is different for emergency funds, but for a single man, I would suggest at least $20,000 is the minimum amount you want to have. Maybe a bit less to start, but building up to that by age 70. A single serious operation with some hospitalization in the Philippines can set you back $5,000.

​@@bobby75044 Please be aware that Manila VA will ONLY treat rated service connected disabilities... Please do more research on your healthcare needs in the Philippines

## Veterans Memorial Medical Center The **Veterans Memorial Medical Center** (formerly known as **Veterans Memorial Hospital**) is a hospital located in Quezon City, Metro Manila, Philippines. It was established in 1955 with full assistance from the U.S. government under the U.S. Veterans Administration to provide quality hospitalization, medical care and treatment to Filipino veterans[5]. The hospital originally treated patients who suffered from service-connected disabilities arising from their service with the USAFFE, recognized guerrilla units, Philippine Scouts, and Philippine Commonwealth Army. This was later extended to include Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) retirees and their dependents[5]. The 55-hectare land was originally intended to be the location of the new Malacañang Palace in the original masterplan of Quezon City in 1939[5]. ## Manila VA Outpatient Clinic The **Manila VA Outpatient Clinic** is the only VA health care facility located in a foreign country. It is situated on U.S. Embassy property in Pasay City, Metro Manila[6][9]. U.S. Veterans residing in or visiting the Philippines may receive care and services for a service-connected disability at the Manila VA Outpatient Clinic. It provides limited inpatient and non-VA care, which is provided through the Foreign Medical Program[6]. The Manila VA Outpatient Clinic is currently providing limited in-person medical appointments, with a focus on completing specialty care services. Most primary care and mental health services are provided via telephone appointments[6].

I think lying to be going a relationship is not a good way to meet someone and it’s not necessary since she will be a Filipina

It’s quite complicated and there’s no government website that lays it out in a clear and easily understandable way two or three other subscribers have written in offering more context and more explanation on the subject rather than me attempting here to rephrase that it would be better if you read through some of the other comments in particular Did a very good explanation Benefits you can get benefits you can get for survivor benefits woman can get if she works in the United States for 10 years so possibly in the future will do an entire video on it

Living together (in the Philippines they call that: live-in partner) becomes more accepted but most people frown upon that scenario. Dont forget: the majority of the PH population is Christian/Catholic. Although PH youngsters do have pre-marital sex (without using contraceptives) and often leading to a pregnancy. Sex-ed is basically unknown there. They still believe that god will take care of everything. "Bahala na"

Living together should not be a problem

Thanks for sharing

Hi Paul, thanks for your feedback in terms of having a target. It’s always good to aim for something. It doesn’t mean that you can’t have exceptions to rules and you won’t be quality people who don’t fit exactly in what you were targeting. You could meet a wonderful woman without an education you could meet a woman with an education who’s not a wonderful woman in terms of the Social Security benefits you’re exactly right. It is crazy complicated and I need to find an expert or someone like yourself who really really understands all the opportunities and options, especially when it comes to children, maybe make a video on that

@@FlyMeToThePhilippines not me. I have learned a lot, but am far from an expert. Folks take everything you say as Gospel so it has to be 100% accurate when it comes to this stuff.

Others have written and added to this discussion and yes it needs clarification

🤔

🤔

Yes agree

OR - your kids in the PH can draw - even if they've never lived in the US. You could have kids at 70 - die at 71 - and each kid would receive 50% SSI until their 18th birthday.

The children can if they are US CITIZENS or if they are US residents for 5 years. Being child of US citizen is not enough by itself.

@@tg213 any child born to a US citizen either in the US or abroad is a naturalized US citizen at birth. Therefore as citizen children of a social security recipient - they qualify for the benefit regardless of the country they lived in.

🤔

Wow, thanks

Thanks for watching our channel and taking the time to express your thoughts

And there are plenty of people, especially in the West, that will disagree with your acceptable age-gap formula. Fortunately we all get to choose for ourselves.

I disagree with your disagreement. There is *_no formula_* for age gapiosis. It comes down to personality compatibility. It's wrong of you to age discriminate young women based upon your Western World experience. And to say you'd rather make love to a 50 year old woman - rather than a 25 year old woman - is completely stupid and totally pious.

The acceptable age to who ?. Sorry, finding the ideal partner shouldn’t be dating by numbers. I think your formula is flawed at best, unnecessarily restrictive at worst.

@@TravellingMan20 It isn't my formula. I am not the author of it. It comes from what the Filipinos see as appropriate. To each his own. If a 70 year old man wants to date a 20 year old and it is consensual than all is well

A perfect world

@@davidtoro4218 Fortunately establishing the appropriate boundaries is also Fully in control of the Expat (and finding a partner that accepts those boundaries).

If money is the reason you’re together, you chose the wrong woman. If you run out of money, you’re doing it wrong. Both issues fall squarely on you.

I’d like the other guys response

​@snbi7959 even if he marries the wrong woman and runs out of money that is his mistake. No woman can make you run out of money if you don't let her do it

Ok. We have lived together for 15 months. She has inly shopped at Thrift stores for clothes even though I offer.

Never sell through the close 🤓

haha. Rob does make a compelling case, doesn't he? Or is it seeing Chrissy? Heck, it's both.

Other way around. Having Chrissy at my side makes me feel rich

I agree that’s why I think a willingness to accept one child as I did is still a sweet spot and worth, including in your search parameters

Need to compromise on accepting the 1 kid considering the age gap.

I appreciate the positive feedback and except your comment. Perhaps the fact that he doesn’t speak English completely but just partially might moderate your viewpoint.

Well here it doesn’t take too much

@@FlyMeToThePhilippines Hi Rob, your vids ( and many others) are a big part of why I am here now. I know I am in the wrong area (Makati) as everyone here has 10 times my budget and most are still working. I'll branch out when I get my 6 month extension next month.I'm Paul's age w 2K + budget. Enough for two would take some serious budgeting work.

@@richardkinder2409 Richard thanks for the feedback. Good luck with your future

I hope you’ll be successful your comments about money and my personal access to it or off base

@@FlyMeToThePhilippines You have mentioned your assets and a bit about your working life in a few of your videos, and I just think it's obvious that you are in a much better financial situation than many of us are. I was simply saying I think I can adapt to living a good life with a good woman in the Philippines without having anything near what is reported to be the average Social Security pension amount. Since you are giving a bit of financial advice, I don't see how my comments about money are "off base". Anyway, I'm hoping to find happiness... just as you have. Not finding fault with anyone or the methods to their success.

Yes this guy' s living on far more money than most of us He's renting a beautiful home paying 80k per month or is it 40? Nevertheless he looks like a businessman and can afford a 31 year old My Filipina is 20 years younger than me not 40 years difference.Cmon reality check folks why would a 31 year old choose to be with a man his age who has limited time on earth when she can have a young filipino guy with vigor and long life?It's financial security is what it is You can mask it any way you want but she sees a golden chalice for her future and stiffs like him think it's love I'm fortunate I found a Filipina who's not after my money because I'm not rich
