What a story: Scammed by his first Filipina (he married her) and sent to prison. He was homeless on the beach for three years and was sent to prison. With no money he walked from Dumaguete to Cebu City to start a new life.
Join us as we interview a New Zealand expat as he describes his incredible life story. Growing up in New Zealand and moving to Australia before working 25 years in the United States. He owned his owned business however he did not earn a pension from social security. Hoping to sell his business he left for the Philippines in 2011 landing first in Dumaguete where he had met a filipina online. He had chatted for two years through Skype and he made the move, however his hopes of selling his business in the USA did not occur and his funds ran short.
He married his first filipina, and they stayed together in Dumaguete for 6 months before he learned she had mislead him, scammed him. She had children she had not revealed and became pregnant with another man. Claiming it was his child she pressed legal claims.
A story of redemption and renewal, as our Expat describes encounters with law enforcement and Prison. Walking across the Philippines, surviving with no money, finding work and meeting a new partner and becoming a father in his sixties in Cebu City. Moving to Cagayan de Oro Misamis Oriental Mindanao he struggled to provide an income for his family. He started selling donuts door to door and quickly began a catering business bicycling 30 kilometers a day to provide for his growing family.
Join US.
DISCLAIMER: Our guest has asked we not use his real name due to ongoing legal issues in the Philippines court system. Please respect his wishes if you know him in your comments.

Hi I’m a Filipina working overseas. I’m always watching interviews and hear story’s on line like yours. I’m so embarrassed to see and to hear how Filipino women take advantage of foreigners coming to the Philippines. I’m sorry that this happened to you but it is a lesson to learn . The good thing though is no one hurt you physically. I’m wondering what is your visa status now? Are married again in the Philippines? Few month ago I watched an interview of a guy from the US . She meet a girl online who had 3 children . She said that she is a buttered wife and her husband left her and the 3 kids. Long story short they become close friend and and later become girlfriend and boy friend. He decided to go to meet her in the Philippines. She’s no where to be found. The guy later found out that she is leaving with a guy. She extracted a lot on money from him, she also got a Samsung mobile phone him it was sent to her. My friendly advice to you never trust someone until you meet in person.

I'm 73 and have been video chatting with a nice philipine 45 year old woman who is housekeeper for a Chinese man and wife in Manila. I have wanted to go see her and even bought a plane ticket last March to go see her but then decided not to for a few reasons. I'm a veteran with free health care here in South Carolina and not in the best of health and also listening to your story I'm afraid of something like that may happen to me even though I trust her things may be different when I get there and meet her in person. I admire your persistence and ability to roll with the punches. Still not sure you are financially able to live comfortably there with your wife and kids.

Any male traveling to the Philippines to meet a woman has to do his due diligence. Be on guard, don't trust straight away or if at all. I met my wife online and traveled to Davao City to meet her. Once we met and I met her family as usual you end up taking to whole tribe out so they can fill their bellies. What I noticed when it came to paying for the food, which was 10 years ago is that her family checked the bill meticulously to see I was not being ripped off. it turned out I was and they got the bill amended. That was the first good sign. The second good sign was no one asked me for money. My wife was degree-educated and a proud women. On the first visit, I stayed 2 weeks and then we maintained a long-distance relationship. It was at least 1 year later before I trusted her with any money of mine. Eventually, we married and we have 3 children together and she lives with me in Australia. At the moment we are back in Davao City visiting family. But all guys please remember if you marry a Filipino you marry the family. It will cost you financially to help support the family and that's a fact.

I agree with you about when you marry the Filipina you also merry the family. I made it clear to my girlfriend now my wife when I got off the plane to live here with her that she would be managing our monthly budget. I hand her 50 percent of my monthly income every month and keep 50 percent in my bank account in the states for emergencies. She has been told to pay our bills give our 4 kids there weekly allowance. And if anyone in the family wants to borrow money then she can give it to them out of our monthly budget as long as her, me and our kids never go without. I learned to never invest in a relationship in the Philippines with any Filipina money that you can't afford to walk away from.

Did i hear him wrong didn't his second wife with the children ditch him too. I may have misunderstood Tony on that part. Here in the Philippines don't go breaking any of their laws. Unless you are or become a citizen of the Philippines being a visa visitor does not give you the exact same rights. I knew this expat from Europe who came to the Philippines with a decent lump size of money and he had no monthly income. His five year plans fell through and by the third year he was broke and no way to provide in the family while others were providing for him and finally he got kicked out and was living off the streets. Donations were scraped up to buy a plane ticket back home for him and a little more money to buy something to eat. The man was drove to the airport and then handed his plane ticket and told to not come back to the Philippines unless he had a good way to live. Well what happen 17 months latter here he was back i don't know if he has a way to live now and i don't care. You just can't fix stupid.

This ex-pat, elderly gentleman has led quite a difficult/challenging life in the Philippines. Many who want to visit/live there can learn much from this guy's experience in the country. However, just one thing. Don't let the fact that this gentleman has experienced no crime while in the Philippines means it is SAFE there. He hasn't been a victim of crime cause he doesn't have much that a thief wants to steal. A poor criminal will not steal from a person who doesn't have much to begin with. If you plan to go to the Philippines, & you have ANY assets, you will be a target for crime, theft or con job. Don't think this guy's statement he's never experienced crime means you're safe there. He has little that a thief would want to steal. I am a American-Filipino, a citizen of the US. When I go back, I watch my 6 wherever I am in the Philippines. So please be alert & stay safe when you are in the Philippines.

His story seems very iffy. After his Duma wife had a kid that wasn’t his he left and lived in the beach for three years. All covered with boils from the sun and getting hand outs from the locals. But then he goes on to state that he ended up with this baby at six months old, and cared for it for 18 months. Did the baby stop aging during his three years sleeping on the beach? He had a business in CA that he wanted to sell but the financial crises wrecked that plan for five years. But the financial crises was in 2008 and he says he came here, with money, 12 years ago, which would have been 2011. Nothing seems to fall right with his timeline. And I’m not halfway through watching. 😮

I appreciated this interview as he touched on things I also experienced with my Filipina both in the Philippines and at home in the U.S. I can honestly say my Filipina was the sexiest woman and biggest liar I ever met, whom I finally had to divorce. But being with her was also the best 13 years of my life. On the other hand, you couldn't pay me to marry another Filipina. But like the interviewee, at 80 and now living alone...I have no regrets.

@@user-tp3ji7md9u We're all willing to 'feed the poor' as long as we get something out of it. Ultimately, though, you did the right thing. It's ironic that many men come here to 'exploit' the women for sex, and wind up getting the worse end of the stick. I find it a lot more honest to lay your cards on the table and just pay as you go (so to speak). The problem is that it can never fill the emptiness inside. :(

Most channels talking about the Philippines and Filipino women rarely mentioned the dark side of their culture. Many foreigners mentioned that the people in the Philippines are very nice and friendly and helpful and I'm sure that's true. Apparently there's a substantial number of Filipino women who are exploiting foreigners to get out of poverty and they will lie and cheat to get what they want. Now hearing how the Filipino justice system treats foreigners that makes those kind of women even more of a problem. In the US we have women who make false allegations and who lie and who exploit and who cheat on their men. But at least the judicial system isn't going to throw you in prison to rot for years waiting for an appeal or wait for trial. I've considered the Philippines or Costa Rica, I'm now going to focus my efforts on learning more about Costa Rica.

Hey brother, I was in Costa Rica in the early 90’s . Great place , lovely people. For me maybe too many foreigners then. But I guess that’s good and bad?? Safe than, cheap.. but now it’s extremely expensive. As long as you have the money, no problem. I’ve lived in a few places in S America. Costa definitely the best.. Now I live in the Philippines, for me Philippinos are some of the nicest people in the world.. so kind and loving.. as far as woman go they are some of the best, But you have to be intelligent, like in any country. How many divorced Dr. In the world are scratching their heads going what did I get myself into?? Bad woman(men)are everywhere !! I lived in cdo and you’ll see a lot of foreigners with woman way to young in my opinion. If you were 19 , why would you get together with a 65 year old? Desperation.. that’s not to say some of those women want treat you like a king.. but if your in your 60s you should look at the 30 year olds.. they appreciate it more you’d give them the time of day. And more matured. I would definitely visit both countries. One man’s meat is another man’s poison.. for me the filipines is the best!!!

@walidel-saleh6040
@walidel-saleh6040 9 месяцев назад
Divorce in Philippines does not exist. Annulment of marriage is a complex process, both, extremely time-consuming (up to five years) and very expensive. So it's quite possible that Tony's current "wife" really IS his partner, rather than his legal spouse. By the way, having proved that the baby was not actually his, he could have filed a case against his actual wife for adultery. It's illegal in Philippines and carries a MANDATORY prison sentence, ranging from 6 months to 6 years. I was encouraged to do the same against my wife but chose not to do so, as she allowed me to take custody of our daughter and to take her to Australia, where I have been raising her, for a number of years, on my own. Meanwhile, my wife and her boyfriend, have produced two daughters of their own. As hurt as my daughter and I were, by my wife's actions, we don't feel as if we are losers. I wake up each morning, with purpose - raising the best daughter I can. My daughter, grumpy, first thing in the morning, brightens up, after breakfast and a shower and looks forward to school, each day. She's loving life. My wife, meanwhile, has the privilege of motherhood to two babies to look forward to. She seems happy. The irony is that there was a much more suitable woman for me (in every sense, including her family and their values and ethics) only five doors down the street from my wife's family. And if my wife hadn't taken off, for the thrill of a new boyfriend, those possibilities may never have revealed themselves. I don't know what the future holds for us but the thing I admire most in Tony is his resilience - which can only exist because of his "glass half full" attitude to life.

@@walidel-saleh6040 I apologize, I missed where you told me why the words "girl & friend" are now considered archaic. I've had a few business partners in my life - and perhaps she is that too - but I would never denegrate a wife status or even girlfriend to the lowly status of a business partner. Likewise, I have also had 'partners in crime' from time to time but... well, you know. I suppose I am simply against the new age terminology of wives-to-partners association. You're a wife, a lover, a girlfriend, a common friend or a business partner. The least of which is the latter. I don't know about the Philippines but in MOST countries that make it difficult to obtain a divorce - ADULTERY is a shoe-in for an annulment as it goes directly against the Catholic Church doctrine. As far as the status of his lawyer, I wonder WHO is actually footing the bill if the wife is getting all or most of the benefits in the legal arena. Yes, I agree in that his tenacity and fortitude go a long way and are inspiring! No doubt about this last part!

@@bikecontroller3268 Oh... a PARTNER in 'whoredom'?? Are there legal documents to back that up? I'm not certain that is very accurate either. I DON"T believe that is what she is. I think SHE is his GIRLFRIEND. In biblical times they were referred to as Concubines. But, and my obvious point to this is, no one wishes to uses the designation of GIRLFRIEND (or Concubine) anymore because it is no longer the SHEEK terminology. For some reason, society has associated this as a 'diminutive status'. (4th wave feminism again?) Some people believe it is more 'professional sounding' to use the term PARTNER but in actuality it is a false designator. She is neither his PARTNER nor his WIFE (or his 'whore') but rather his GIRLFRIEND. (Or perhaps 'partner in crime' would do better here too!) Semantics, I realize, but important designators none-the-less.

You are an excellent interviewer - both of you. Your channel is unique in many ways but you have really put your stamp on providing unique information for us. At first I thought this is a manufactured story. But as the interview proceeded I felt it was true. His story reminds me of the movie “Unbroken.” I appreciate his words about what the Filipino in the plane told him “trust nothing and no one and verify everything.” It’s been my experience that that is very true and prudent advice. There have been so many many times when I was there and a Filipino told me something and I found it was not true and with a culture that doesn’t like confrontation, and confronting may lead to demise, it’s very different than the US. The way I tell people from the US that are going to the Phillipines about advice is “things are not the way they seem many times so don’t be naive and trusting until you spend a lot of time to understand especially with Filipinas.

His story is full of holes, sounds like a lot of delusional people who are homeless but claim to be something else. If he was an engineer from the USA, he could easily moved back to the USA for a high paying job in about any place, why would he stay homeless on a beach in the Philippines and enjoy being sick with boils. No one thinks prison is a happy place and I doubt the police would go after him unless they thought there were real problems like being a child molester or something. Not saying he is or was, but I'm saying the police had probable cause more than an angry ex. Self employed in the USA (even foreign nationals) have to pay into Social Security and after working 25 years in California he would be eligible, so what gives?

If he worked in California USA for 25 years that is that is 100 quarters paid into social security only need 40 quarters to be fully vested. Why wouldn't he be able to receive a social security check?

This is one of the most inspiring stories I’ve heard in a very long time. It’s actually really helped me in some ways. He put so many things in perspective. Also the reality that in a country where there is significant economic hardship and no safety net, there is a reality that leads foreigners to being very vulnerable in some ways. It’s also a lovely story about the Philippino culture, the way people looked after him when he was desperate is just superb. I don’t think that would happen here in Australia.
