Love the way you say "we" all the time. Shows what a kind and respectful man you are ! How you appreciate and cherish AI . Much respect to you both 🥰🥰
You are just a nice, genuine guy, Derek. Wishing you all the very best with whatever you choose to do. You definitely deserve the best, brother. Jim
Thank you, Jim
Yes I'm learning that the Philippines people have learned to roll with the punches✌️❤️🙏🙏🇺🇲
They sure do
HI PRINCESS AI & BUDHA D!! Proud of you my young BUDHA👍😉. You have done your homework in return business is doing well. The new boat 🛶 is nice & your tours you will offer is a big risk! I hope 🙏 it all works out. My advice get a good insurance policy if they offer it. People’s lives are in your hands when they are under your care 👍. BOK BOK !!Blessings 🙏🌺🌸🌼
Great point
@@qadventures Just wanted be sure my BUDHA D has all his paperwork and documentation to cover your BIG BUTT!! BOK BOK !
You're an inspiration to many who would like to live there. Going with a plan for success while enjoying the culture and people. Your outlook is solid. Helping where you can is heartfelt. You're always in my prayers and i enjoy watching your journey. 🙏😎🙏💯💯🤍
Iand I am grateful
Those thinking their savings will last, fail because they haven't learned and used the word "NO". They let their ego and new found popularity blind them from maintaining a budget.
100%. It's also meeting people you don't expect and taking trips you didn't plan for
AI is a good catch. She’s pretty and a lady with good character. Good luck to both of you. When are you marrying her?
Hahah!!! Our cohabitation is so serene, why throw a 4ock to make ripples?
@@qadventures Derek, the happiest moment of a woman’s life is when she gets married. Your current situation might be going well for you and not to ruffle the situation she shares your heart. But deep inside she’s waiting for “I Do” trust me I am an old fart.
Thanks Guys! No worries. You guys are doing great!
Good video I know not simple here to get stuff done but your business ideas are simple I've had no desire but lots of ideas lol but I'm retired on the low scale
You are indeed a fund of knowledge especially for anyone planning to move to the Philippines. Do you have an update on the Corona fire? I am hoping there was no loss of life and that rebuilding is underway?
Going there today, Jan. I hope not also
Hey Ai & Derek,
first of all. Thanks for you open minded content. I "study" the philippines by youtube and talking to locals for 6 months now. Of course the start was chatting with a nice woman but more and more the country itself wakes up my interest. So many possibilities and chances for a better (this means peaceful) life. And by thinking of this stuff so many questions are appearing in my head. I am 43 years old and its way to early for retirement. So...how can i create an income. As you said...always work for yourself and not for a company is the best way to go.
As you said...first is to get my ass over there and look how it feels. This means to "simulate" living there and not go to parties and have the "special" fun. I guess the best way is to jump in the cold water and learn to swim. The other things can and have to wait until the basement is build. Its life...so its not a sprint. There are so many influences, the country, the culture, the people, the food, the weather, the costs and so on. I guess in the first days and weeks its still a never ending wave of emotions.
You are are very helpful source for information...big thank you for that.
Regarding TH-cam...you are doing great. You are responsing which 90% of the channels here don´t do. So its not only feels like interaction...it is! Keep up the great work
Best wishes from germany
Tom
Yes Tom, we have plenty of people from Germany and Austria coming through here, don't miss out. Take mini trips 1st. You will have a big support network here and if you are looking to collaborate on something, I am open. I am a tech retard and you seem to be in the tech space. If you know anything about TH-cam SEO and pumping viewership to my channel, please reach out privately
@@qadventures I am a software engineer :) I will write you a message regarding TH-cam
👍✅👏👏👏✅👍
Derek show us ur boat ride any small trip ur doing or test ride
💯
Derek, congratulations and we wish you success in all the new endeavors
You can own 40% of your corporation, who owns the other 60% ?
Greetings,
2 Philippines citizens
How would a smash /Smoked bbq burger place go there and maybe some southern cooking go . With like biscuits and sausage, gravy fried chicken greens Mac and cheese. Little things like that .
Divinely. There is a lack of good food here. I am prepared to start a vietnamese restaurant when my mother come next yr and southern food when my buddy comes for a few months in Oct to help train my staff to develop a menu
Very good
Hi, I too want to be a vlogger, any advice or guidance will be greatly appreciated,. I’m here in Chicago, eventually I want to travel,. Probably Mexico me being Mexican, making my way to the Philippines would be an achievement. Still i enjoy your content and how you help local people in the Philippines. Hopefully we could work together on that because I would like to help the community. Still my interest are aligned with yours. I’d like to ease my way there.
In advance thanks
I lived in tijuana for a number of years. I love Mexican culture also. Vlogging can be easy if you create content within your realm of passion. I am still learning and putting together a team. We will have a boot camp for newcomers to the vlogging world soon. I have to prove concept 1st
Thank you
Oh my gosh, I was offline about a month because of the hurricane broke my internet/cable line - just now got it fixed. I need to catch up! 🙁🙁🙁
Ooo... I hope all is well there, in TX, Nikki
@@qadventures It's getting there Derek - thanks!
Just a little wish,
Could you please also give some advice on which insurances are available and necessary for a foreigner (health, accident, Liability insurance)
As always...thank you
Unfortunately, I haven't cross the insurance bridge in the Philippines yet so I don't know how to speak on it
nice
Now THIS is odd. The Filipina is the 'light skinned' one!😂 Derek, hope you put something on that sunburn right away. That looks like your whole body might peel off.😱
As always, great video.
Hahaha!!!
I desperately want to retire there, but I know that I have to wait another 7 years until I reach my official retirement. I plan to come over next year, but work will only allow me 3 weeks. At least I will get a taste. I'm not looking for love or marriage, just a few years of peace and quiet in my twilight years.
Everyone comes to the Philippines with different purpose. Reach out when you decide to visit
Topics like cost of living, and daily life sounds like good topics. High value man ? What's that about ?
I am learning as I go
How is that girl Lj you helped a few months ago?
do you pay your partner a weekly wage as you should, the business is yours, i seen that happen when i lived in Spain, and i did with my business but soon changed it so my partner had her own income,
No, accounting is done at month end for us
Did you guy's find anything about fishing license for foreigner's, are you still thinking about deep Sea fishing trips with your boat when it's done?
100%. I am not a fishermen so I don't know how to put together such a trip, but a subscriber (friend) who is an avid fishermen will teach us and be involved to develop an itinerary for such a trip
@@qadventures Just thought I'd ask again, awhile back I asked about fishing over there in the Philippines. I've never seen any Vlogs about foreigner's doing any fishing. Ya said maybe when you got your boat done you might take some people out deep sea fishing Thanks for responding back.
@user-gx6ei9bv4i yeah we are 100% looking to do something worthwhile as far as fishing is concern. I really don't want to take folks to a lame lake and cast a line. Deep sea is the way to go. Big fish
@@qadventures Sounds like fun. You guy's have a great day.
At times I wonder if your trying to hard to make a business work, like it would in the U S. A blog in the Philippines said, slow down. Things work differently there. You have a mind set different then the other bloggers there,use it. Things in the Philippines moves slowly there. The people as well. The no rush mentality as well. Slow down with everything you’ve doing and enjoy the things around you.
Don't worry, Eddy. I enjoy all I do, not forcing anything
I have enough money and also a lot of ideas regarding my early retirement by investing in / doing a business in the Philippines.
And I am certain I can have a sustainable business. And can create work and do a lot of other good things in and for the Philippines
But because of the laws, everything has to be done over the wife. So it all stands and falls with finding the right wife who is honest and loyal.
This isnt an easy task and even with a good knowledge of human nature and intuition, you never can be completely sure.
That is the one thing that still gives me anxiety.
If I am lucky, I can start my new life in 2027 as planned. If I dont have luck, and its really bad, I might have to fly back to my home country later with my emergency funds :/
Maybe Ai can do a video on the topic? What are green flags regarding a good filipina who wants to be successful together with her husband instead of just getting him to build a house and so on, and then get rid of him
Whenever you have to be dependent on someone to get something done, it's probably not a good idea to do it unless you can truly walk away in a total lost situation.
@@qadventures But how does this work out for most businesses? You have to spend money to set something up. If the wife wants you out of life and business, there is little you can do.
Motorbike rental might be a good first business though, because you not only can walk away from the situation, you can drive out of it ;) because I think the ownership of several scooters by a foreigner is not forbidden :D and a motorbike rental business without motorbikes is pointless of course.
But in most tourist hotspots, the rental business is more than saturated.
And everything with more revenue all needs investment that you cant own.
Maybe some things change though over the next years, Marcos seems to be somewhat progressive business-wise?
@q you said in this video don't come here looking for a job that will pay 10$ a day, but why not? Why don't you make a video about top 10 sites to look for a job?
Then a video about top 10 sites to rent ?
Top 10 to buy?
Top 10 visa explanation?
And you only talk about americans, there are europeans too 🇨🇵🇨🇵🇨🇵
Yes, there are plenty of of those content out there. My speech revolves around USA because that's where I grew up and it's ingrained in my mind. I KNOW there is Europe and other continents and countries, but I cannot speak on them if I don't have a reference as I have never visited such countries
Your wife is beautiful
She's flawless, in my eyes
You guys rent any trikes ?✌️❤️🙏🙏🇺🇲
Unfortunately not
Retirement is 67 by the time you reach it 72.
Not counting on it
@@qadventures smart
I remember you say you don't want to get married but why is Ai not one of your top 3 reasons for wanting to be in the Philippines. I guess she wasn't a part of the beginning of you being there. I hope she is part of your plans now
I travel a lot, Andy. I never travel to seek out love. I am a strong believer that love just comes when it comes, I never sought it out. So when Ai came about, I am grateful, but I will not change my belief system and she respects that.
@@qadventures i always appreciate your responses because you speak from the heart. As long as both parties understand the relationship then who is or would anyone have the right to judge.
Philippines....only invest as much as your prepared to loose...
Foreigners cannot own land in the Philippines...
Business ownership is 60/40% in favor of the filipino...
My filipina wife, owns our sari-sari store (Nangan Jamboree), house (Davao City), Hino truck ...parked up somewhere, purpose built Gina-Graham 60 foot fishing boat...burn't out after 1 year. It had a crew of 12/13, fishing for yellow fin tuna. The captain and motorman were relatives and my wife organised the business.

Philippines is a lot cheaper and easier to navigate, in my opinion
