Hey everyone! In this video, I'm finally addressing all the questions you've been asking about why I left the Philippines, where I am now, and what's happening in my life.
I'm so excited to share this new journey with you. We've made some big decisions, including selling our condo in the Philippines. It's priced at $29,700,000 with incredible financing options and a referral bonus of $300,000! If you're interested, you can email us at [email protected]
We truly loved our time in the Philippines but I'm ready for a new chapter, both personally and professionally. Stay tuned for more updates on my new RU-vid channel and why I'm feeling healthier and more energized than ever.
Thank you for watching, and don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell!

You both look more relaxed and well rested. I enjoy coming to Manila every 2 years for a few month to live like a King. However, it always great to get back to my home in Florida to a better diet and clean ocean air. Cape Town has it all from the ocean, mountains and low cost of living. Best of Luck wherever you land.

I am wondering how’s the safety like in Cape Town that you guys chose there? I don’t discriminate but i have friends from Cape Town, who chose to retire in SE Asia/Turkey/Greece/etc. because they cant find the peace of mind in their homeland. Aside from low cost of living (&wonderful nature), m wondering what other factors that played in choosing CT if locals are trying to flee when they could. Kinda ironic though. 🤔

@xavierkoolat6926 2 месяца назад

You zeroed in on what YT is attempting to do with the emphasis on "Shorts" and "Live Streaming" format versus "Video" format. So, to compare both sides, Videos require hours of editing which reduces the quantity (number) of video output to one or two per week. Whereas, Shorts require little or no lime to edit, depending on only the preparation time as a requirement of the performer and NOT on the cameraman or director. Shorts can be produced at a rate of several per day, as many as one every hour. That's a HUGE difference when comparing that to the time required to make recorded Videos. Additionally, "Live Streaming" has no requirements whatsoever. Just turn on the camera connection to the internet, place the camera, and walk away. This can be recorded for later viewing, but the hype is for viewers to connect during live action. Again, NO EDITING time. The Channel owner just goes about his/her business of the day, including meal prepping, eating, casual conversation, etc., all without any editing time. It's all "LIVE" what's happening second by second. That appeals to many viewers because it then becomes life as it occurs second by second and does not follow any previously prepared script. It's "life on the edge" of moment by moment as it occurs. All that appeals to viewers; it's as real as you can get. It's live TV.

Me personally, i support foreign vloggers because they help promote our tourism which helps our economy. That's really my main reason why i watch, like and subscribe. And for those who are just visiting, i immediately unsubscribe once they leave the country (or start posting on another country.)

@giangbup6208 Месяц назад

@@moondustgirl2132 eto yung downside sa mga pinoy subscribers, lalo na sa isang FOREIGN travel vlogger. Loyal viewer lang sila kapag ang content mo ay about sa Pinas or ikaw ay nasa Pinas. Madami ka ngang subs pero nanunood lang sila kapag nasa or tungkol sa Pinas ang content. Mas maganda pa rin kung mas diverse ang subscribers na loyal viewer regardless kung saan or ano ang content. Ung iba selos pa ata kapag nasa outside Pinas at pinupuri ang ibang bansa.

@moondustgirl2132 Месяц назад

As I said, my main reason for supporting vloggers is they help our economy by promoting our tourism. Kanya kanya lang yan. Some support them for the vloggers sake and that's fine with me. Basta for me, it's because of what they do for our country's economy, and ultimately for its citizens (us) kaya ko sila sinusupport. But in fairness to Mike and his former and current partner, they've done a lot na rin in promoting our country coz i've been watching his channel for years now (together with Juicy vlogs). Ang dami dami na nilang napuntahan na lugar sa Pinas, some of which we Filipinos didn't even know about. So if he wants naman to vlog elsewhere, okay naman sa kin. Walang personalan. I'm just saying na hindi ko na magagawang panoorin pa. First of all, wala na rin akong time even if I wanted to. Priority ko syempre is ung mga currently promoting PH.

@venza907 2 месяца назад

"Reality"-Filipinos watch RU-vid like it's a noontime/k-drama show. So, the more content about the Philippines, the higher your ratings and viewers will be. Once you stop or lessen Philippines content, the views will drop. Filipinos love seeing foreigners praise the country (Philippines), as if they feel they are part of the videos. I'm not hating; I'm just telling the facts. I wish Mike and Gray the best of luck in the future, in front or behind the cameras.
