Hehehe only beers in the fridge and ice cubes for whiskey in the freezer ;) Way to go!!!
Yes! Thanks for Watching!
One of the great things about Angeles is that you can get a place like Ace’s but you can also get a nicer place for a few hundred dollars more a month and you will still save a ton of money vs. the USA.
Correct!

I had an Airbnb that I was going to stay in while in Angeles City, but when I showed it to my girlfriend, She said "Hell No" . I asked why and she said that's where Ace lives..lol 😂
We ended up getting Kandi Palace..👍🏼
Every time someone shows a pool no ones in it.
I think many don't trust the sanitation . I have seen many empty pools in S.E.A.
Many things in Asia are based on the projection of status much more than actual real utility.
I've got a pool outside my room. No one has been in it
Because it's raining and they don't want to get wet.
Great informative video. I personally am a big city highrise guy but I can see a lot of people choosing the small apartment. It's more of a home feeling. I'd rather pay a little more & get the amenities like gym, pool, cafe in the lobby, ATM, 24 hour security etc. that you'd get with a condo in a highrise.
Yes! Thanks for Watching!
Your apt is perfect. The location in the complex. The security around the complex. Size is good.
Thank you!
What about the outside environment? Traffic noise? Dogs? Roosters? Also, where is this located?
Thanks for giving us an idea of transition costs and showing us around your place.
Beautiful place, Ace! Considering getting a small circular rug for living area, perhaps w Ace of ♤ spades
I like your thinking! Thanks for watching!
Enjoying your content Ace. Hopefully ill be living the Dream soon like you.
Thanks for the video Ace! I'm moving there the first week of May! I already have a place there, the Balikbayan boxes are already there, I've been cleared by my doctor! I have money! I've been coming there to Angeles since 2011! I'm single! I have a back up plan! So, I guess I'm ready! The only thing I'll need to find out, is the best place to extend my visa! Thanks!

No mention of WiFi 😮how do you upload your videos and edit them!??
No mention of cellphone service
How much per month is your phone bill??
Great video Ace, at my subdivision here I even had to buy all the light bulbs lol! 3 bedroom 2 bath former US Navy housing, sure beats SoCal rents!!
I was thinking about hiring a personal assistant cook and cleaner here in Cebu, but the girls that come over just do all of that for free.
5K are you crazy add up everything you said you are way less add up everything you spend not close two learn how to add I listen to you and add it up your number so you said not close to 2k
@@bills5155 what you rambling about bro
Thanks for sharing sir !
*Thx4share good info AceMon* 👍
8:35 nice 😊Fridge for cold beer at all times
it cost way too much, the best time to move to the philippines was 15 - 40 years ago , if you dont live there now dont plan on retiring there, its changed.
Small but practical, cooker next to the ref, not sure a good idea, and I'd get an exhaust hood to suck out the cooking smells, just my thoughts, Ace 😊
Thanks for the input!
What I would like to know is the "logistics" of banking between the U.S. and Philippines? Like a big nationwide U.S. bank that allows me to quickly access my money most places over there (and maybe in Indonesia, Thailand). From the sounds of things, carrying more than $200 (U.S. equivalent) cash on your person over there is a risky idea. You could make a fairly long video on the logistics of handling money there. On an unrelated note, it seems microwave ovens are fairly uncommon there? Which is weird since Walmart was selling small ones here for about $40 in 2018 (and it still works).
Ovens/stoves are a luxury for those who like to bake.
Open a bank account in the Philippines if you move there. You can always go online and transfer funds from your bank in your home country to your new account in the Philippines. Make sure you give your bank & credit card companies your new address in the Philippines.
Pnb Bank is the National Bank of the philippines. It has branches in NY and Ca
9:11 The 220 v coffee maker 😅 keurig requires a transformer from 120 to 220v
I’m ready to move now
wow very nice place, i have been thinking how to make this work for me, health wise i mean, i get shots in my eyes every 2 months the cost of blood sugar to high for to long, i keep dreaming about moving there so much, i know a person who just got married and building a house in there
Exercise, eat veggies diet and get your sugar levels down.....if possible
ACE, I like the apartment. Looks like you have everything you need. Even did an open fridge! Only one question. Are you thinking about putting up a flat screen TV on your wall? Just curious. ✌🏼
No! I did'nt come to Philippines to watch TV!
Or you can get an apartment at Kandi Palace or La Grande and not have to buy a refrigerator or any cleaning supplies because that is all included
and lose your Privacy!
What I like about your place is that YOU HAVE NO TELEVISION --- which is by the way a "staple appliance" in any Filipino house. haha... i like the no-tv condo. hehe
Correct. I'm not here to watch TV. Got rid of it 2020.
Wow 😊 I got to have a tv for my ⛳️
@@acebachelorcool Haha. I knew it. You are a man with a mission indeed. Hahaha.
All you need is your laptop or desk top with Netflix or any other streaming service..cable tv over there is crap anyways...Plus I found a really good free sports website that I can watch almost any sport I want....Football,Baseball,Basketball,Hockey and more...
#new subscriber here 👋it was nice to meet you at kokomo's😂
Thanks for Watching! I appreciate it! Now you know my Secret location! lol
Looks comfortable. Do you eat out often? PS I'm sure many of your viewers would like to hear about your typical day.
@acebachelorcool /yeah 😁
😂. You deserve some good seasons, been quite a drought!
I Pay $1,800 for my house alone ! I love ur apt! Wish u could make a vid showing different apt n condo with prices ranges?
The Philippines is a convenient place to live in Asia, but it's not even close to being the cheapest, unless you want to live like a local.
What is cheaper.....?
Thanks for the tour Ace!
Having lived in the Philippines 🇵🇭 back in 1991 at Clark Air Base, Philippines 🇵🇭. (Angeles City). I always desire to return and retire there. I am age (61) now, a widower and my children are grown now. Thank you for the information especially the $5,000 start up budget.
There is someone who said that in 13 MARTIRES YOU GET rents of $250 a month.THAT'S TRUE?
You can get em for $80/month. In many places in PH. Some areas refuse to give whitey the real price . If they do that just move to a area that isn't so dishonest
@@M.R.T.V.Videos thanks you
The actual spending rate out of an ATM machine in the philippines using a USA card when you calculate the fees is 52 or 53 pesos for $1 😂. Can be a little better or worse depending on your card
Yeah, i am crazy 😂.
Use the real life rate to calculate your spending otherwise you will spend more than you thought . It all adds up 😂
Sounds like you're planning to stay there awhile. How long are you staying there and where would you move to if you were to move?
The weather was good indeed here today in Angeles city 🙂
If you like the surface of the sun. Hot and humid every day. I lived there for 6 years...drought years without almost any rain. 😢
@@johnnypastrana6727 Lived where exactly
Ace, will the local golf course store your clubs for you or do you have to bring them every time?
There's Storage here
Great place for some college boy for sure.
Looks quite good to me. -- Perhaps even a bit more than I would desire. --- I'm historically frugal and would hope to get settled for less ??? > Saw an expat in a nice but smaller place furnished very well for $1400 in Trace Martires. (c/o Steve's Philippine Info Channel) I really like what you did though - and we do get what we pay for ?!? ❤🙏👍💪🍺 All the best !
Doing all those things, I have 3 balikbayan boxes packed. Selling all that I can, donating the rest to the Salvation Army, and getting my dogs vaccinated and cleared for travel.
You are taking your animal? haha
whos the number 1 utuber
Regular Guy
That exact studio goes for $1600 in San Diego right now.
You've made me rethink renting a condo. 13,000 a month seems great to have a pool and nice location.
Yes!
I worked as a lifeguard in my young days and was on the swim team. To me a pool is really just a community bath tub and toilet. Just saying…
Very good! Does each apartment have its own hot water heater?
That second bedroom would be a good office, how much would fiber internet cost there?
PLDT is 1699 a month about $30
@@TheRocketrob3 That's not bad
I'd love to live in an apartment in Angeles like that!
Yes! Do it!
Always have backups. Reduncacy is key to survival.
You're quite the interior designer Ace 😂
Some old rock posters and vinyl is all it's gonna take.
It's quiet an upgrade from living in your car to a studio in third world country
lol😂
So many Americans of all ages live in their vehicles.
The whole nation is going homeless. FJB...
I own a house, and I would rather live in a small camper.
@@xiaobao4757 good for you
@@johnnypastrana6727 ok. so? I was talking about Acehole
seem great me an my Gf talk aboudt move there but we dont know if 250k pesos is anogf to leve closer to the City
Ace, you are a true hero and the #2 single you tuber but your apartment looks old run down, enjoy life and get a nice apartment and strive to be the #1 single you tuber !
Yes. I am enjoying Life!
It looked fine to be and by the way, I live in metro Los Angeles where apartments ARE NOT CHEAP.
Cool apt.! Thanx for sharing. I had built 2 houses cheap in Philippines= 1 for soon to be ex-wife in Neuva Ecija & 1 for four yr + girlfriend in Subic Bay. Always enjoy your vlogs as a new subscriber ! Lions did Awesome this season !!
Thank you!
How much is "cheap"?
7:30 😂😂comfy 😊😊😊
Typical bachelor pad refrigerator filled wih beer lol. Just like my place when son came he checked every cabinets and when he checked the fridge, nothing in the freezer and ref is loaded with beer lol
Yeah, he still lives like a college single guy...haha I mean I have not done that since my single University days
No tv?
I cant sell anything people must be broke. What moved before aint selling
Retired army 3400 a month
No good saving on cheap living in Angeles city if your health is going to suffer with all the pollution that goes on there..
There is NO WAY you need 5000 USD too move....Most places come with all that...
Ace is right on the money on these costs. Just depends whether your unit is furnished and or has a pool. I personally feel an unfurnished unit in Mountain View is a better deal because it’s only 8 min walk to walking street or an 8 minute walk to the marquee mall where immigration office is. Unfurnished 2 brs are about 8k per month, elec about 3k and water is 352 pesos per month. Wi-Fi will be 1500 to 1800 pesos per month. You can get a good deal on furniture at SM mart in the sm mall ir the furniture store across from dau bus terminal. Get a good deal on all electronics at super saver near Marquee mall or on Mac Arthur blvd. keep the videos coming, great info for the new expat
The start up can cost less but honestly if you’re thinking about going to the other side of the world and you don’t have 5k usd for the move…. That’s a failure in the making.
@@keith4826 exactly, even with a pension you should have 10 to 20k to move to a new country. It’s not like back in the early 80s here, when all the roads were just dirt. Soon the Philippines will be like Hawaii, and that more reason to come here sooner than later.
I have a studio apartment in Malabanias. Brand new building, fridge, microwave, cooker, hot water shower, double bed, sofa, wardrobe, dining table and chairs, all brand new. Swimming pool and a caretaker. 15,000 peso per month. 2 minute walk to Margarita Station.
@@sammydavis2666What about appliances like fridge and aircon and transporting all of those heavy items?
Hello, do you have hot water for your shower?
That refrigerator looks like ace is a single soldier lol
I don’t see a shower head and no hot water heater?
Where exactly do you live? Hard to find a place for 13k with a stove.
Hey Ace. any problems with cockroaches? I despise those critters
ace did you do retirement visa or still doing tourist visa
Nothing wrong w that analysis at at. Nothing wrong w the apt either you in angeles right?
How much do you allow for bar fines per month?😀🌴🌴🍺🍺
I need $360,000 so I can live there 10 years before I collect social security. I’m 47 and hope to have that money by 52. I don’t want to retire too old that I can’t have fun
Good plan!
I spend $300 a month on cigarettes here in the US. 🚬
That bed doesn't look very good for fun,you could do yourself some damage there.
How much does it cost to move back to your country?
A one way plane ticket?
Burning love is free, upfront cost is negotiable.
very depressing watching all these videos of the Philippines and not sure how to make it work for me to move there
Thanks for sharing your bachelor pad to us, Sounds like you have extra money to party with the girls with your expenses being low.
How do I look for apartment in the Philippines
11:42 mark. Ace, where's your shower? Bucket method for a shower?
How much was Filipino flag
10:45 no shower curtain 😂😂
By the way..
GO Chicago Bears!
Mabey that's why I reply😂
Don't forget to bring a smoke mask if you come to Angeles city you will need it.😭
Ace the type of your apartment complex is common in angeles or rare?
You can find an apartment here.
You’re so funny, You dine out most the time, Thats a monthly bill in itself, Im pretty much opposite with food, Never dine out, Own well wife does, Don’t drink, Cook like a King, Local Beef! Cant eat pork and local foods my God would be dead so fast, Bacteria, Parasites, Ect. Ect. Ect. Beef snd Potatoes for me,
Some Tuna But they cook so unhealthy here, Fry Fry Fry,
I see you place more as a Man Cave, get yourself a bar sign bro, “open sign” Lazada fluorescent,
When it comes to building here, Holy Crap wait, So many lose their asses, Even Overseas locals.
Great Vid! Spot on!!!
Men lose a lot more in divorce in the West 😅 GL
I’m thinking you probably have a Barry Sanders and a Megatron jersey.
Yes!
If you have asthma you definitely shouldn't live in Angeles city . You have been warned
LOL. The chair costs more than the rent! You a king!
Ha ha ha. Yes! Thanks for Watching!
You play basketball inside of that small apartment?
Filipina girls like it!
Where in the Philippines are you located, im here visiting right now. I been here a month, want to retire but all i find on line are expensive appt. Im in Cubao right now. I traveled alll over the Philippines in this past month. Im stay at motels for 1000 a month. But im looking where to retire too.. do u have what ap.. how do i text u .
A lot of youtubers have videos showing places with cheap rents in places like Angeles City. They can be pretty small sometimes.
Come to baguio city, north phils. Sir. Or in angeles city 1 hour bus ride from cubao, quezon city where you are staying.
When I heard him used the term “they swallow” referring to Filipino women - that’s was it for me - he is disgusting- he would refer to a white American woman on a public platform saying such a thing. Revolting. It’s not the act that disgusts me, it was the use of it on a media platform. 😢
Ha ha ha. You'll be okay!
@@acebachelorcool I did not expect anything better or substantial in your lame response to my earlier comment - you just seem to excel at demeaning Filipino women - why,? because you have a few dollars than they do. It is call exploitation and racism.
Does the ghost come free with the apartment or is that extra? 😂
No good having a cheap living if you can't breathe because of all the rubbish that gets burnt in the street.
What do you mean?
Who's number one? lol
Go Pack!
Go Detroit Lions!
That is a nice little man cave.
7:09 love it 😮a lazy Boy lounger
