I have been living in the Philippines for 4 years. In this video, I will give you more information on why I can't leave the country and why I choose not to.
I have made some great life changes since I have been here. Subscribe to my channel for more information on living and traveling around the Philippines and many other countries.

TBF TV - Are you able to have ALL your pension checks banked by way of direct deposit into your Philippine bank account?
@@enniswhalen2428 I don't have a pension
I've been living in the Philippines starting 1983, after I retired from the USAF. I don't miss anything in or about America! As long as my benefits keep coming, I'm staying where I am! I'm happy here.
you're living like a king there with the retirement benefits..
u da man...I envy u
You and your military health care benefits.
i feel u bro, why make life more harder than u need to? just be practical. In the PI u will make the most of you life with each day counting for something because you are treated more as a human being and thats because in general people there tend to be more respecful, friendly, and open and thats not a dig to other countries. This is the pros of the philippines. There are cons, thats mainly financial but if you have that covered somehow tru a business, or benefits then practically your in a win win situation. You have money and friends, thats goes a loong way and thats hard to beat.
You did the right thing...keep safe and healthy.
Philippines, a state that is hell for some... and a paradise for many 🥰🥰let's make it even better😄
I agree with you 💯. I lived and worked in the Philippines for many years. As a Black man, I was most happiest living overseas because I was better received and accepted. Like a heavy weight no longer on my shoulders with regards abject racism, racial profiling, and many problems inherent being Black in America. It’s just different being overseas. I was accepted for being a person, not a skin color.mI just didn’t feel those things in the PI, Thailand, Panama, Honduras, Ecuador, Greece, Sri Lanka, Iceland, Morocco, Mongolia, and in most of the countries I lived in or visited in Africa. Like you, I love my country, however I am not happy that it is slow or unwilling to change. I am a Veteran of 20 years USAF and was stationed at Clark AB towards the end of the Vietnam War. I had since returned to the PI - as a part of my government job - and taught electronics at Poro Point, San Fernando City, La Union and Tinang, Concepcion Tarlac. You have a beautiful family.
I've been there. It's like black men from the U.S. who have been to the Phillipines share a certain kinship, because we know how pleasant the experience is. It's hard to describe in words how good it feels not to feel the unrelenting pressures of racism. I married a woman from the Phillipines and oh my God. They are awesome companions.
Dune fan?
I love black music and movies
Greece and Iceland are countries mostly white populated. You never experienced any racism from the people there? Where you there while being in the AF? Maybe you were treated a little different because they looked at you as representing the US as a whole a country that is still considered no. 1 . No other countries has 11 or 12 aircraft carriers all active duty. So 20 yrs in the Military got you a 50 per cent retirement but did teaching electronics brought you more income?
harsep I was Iceland for a year while in the AF. I did not experience racism. Too cold most of the time to interact with the population. Plus, a curfew was imposed on all Americans there to be inside at 11pm. I was in Greece (Athens, Rhodes, Kavala, and Thassos) when I taught electronics as a part of my government job. I was in those places many times. Greece is more diverse than many think. The Milwaukee Bucks all star player Giannis Antetokounmpo is a Black Greek. His mother, father, and brothers are Greek. He is very popular their and they take pride in him. I have live and visited many countries. I experienced racism more in the United States.
Teaching electronics overseas was a part of my government job. It was a 5-year project. When it ended, I became and IT Specialist and a Foreign Service Officer. My military career was in Avionics, Electronics Technical Instructor and Course Development.
Between my 20 year military career (which assisted in getting a Federal job with regards my qualifications and the 5-point Veteran preference) and my 22 year Federal career in which I am now retired from, my pension is quite significant.
The local high school in my city wanted to hire me to teach electronics and be an assistant Varsity Basketball coach. I declined because I did not retire to start working again. No need to. I am retired.
If I were to recommend money making career paths to young people, I would recommend IT (Cisco and Microsoft networks and security) and learning to code in Python and PHP). Also, pursue Foreign Service positions, And, DO NOT work for corporations because they hire and fire on a whim, but to get a Government job. They are more secure, high-paying, have more longevity, and great benefits.
Here in the Philippines, we have subject in school that is called"Values Education" that teaches good moral and right conduct. It is being instilled in our mind at a young age to be respectful and polite, especially to the elders.
That should be taught in every school worldwide.
@@TheBlackFilipino I agree with you! The world needs good values, more than any form of intelligence.
Yes I've heard about it, I have a friend who works for the PED. The students get a certificate of good morals on completion,it's a great idea and gives the students something to strive for.
That subject was removed for some time ago. No wonder why kids are now so rude and disrespectful, along with terrible influences like TV shows and internet
@@suiken3149 oh I hope they'll revert it back.
People change when they get older. With that change, it is best to change your scenery as well.
(I had to watch this again) I agree. My asawa and I are definitely working on it.
You are very young compared to the typical American that moves to the Philippines which is quite an accomplishment. 👍
The Black Filipino TV You are a wise man brother👌🏿
There is no such thing as peaceful place in this world then and now. The wisest thing to do is living in a place where people welcome you for who you are and the peace and happiness will follow.
Pinoy watching in California I’m new subscriber here to support your channel
I can’t wait to go back to the Philippines. My wife and I will be moving there permanently 🛫✈️🛬🇵🇭
you will love it here in the Philippines. I moved here to the beach life here in the Philippines to relax and enjoy life. I now am a vlogger too, but didn't come here to do it. It is just fun to show how great it is here. Check my channel! Where in the Philippines will you move to ?
Good luck
San Juan La Union Vlog: Davao City is where she is from.Thats where we’re planning on living. I’ll definitely check out the channel. I’ll sub
woahh, enjoy
I’ve live in Melbourne Australia for 38 years originally from Philippines and the best day of my life is being back living here in CEBU. Philippines is full of life,natures, human interactions and Filipino loves good vibes and happiness
Seeing how foreigners wanting to migrate and live here in the Philippines for good, somehow boost our pride as Filipinos. I guess 10 years from now we will be over populated coz' pf you guys. It's ok. The more, the merrier....lol...
Welcome to the Philippines my dear brothers and sisters from all over the world. Enjoy your stay.
Lol! Don't worry about overpopulation of especially black foriegners. Black men are and have been moving not just to the Philippines, but to Japan, Africa, South America, Brazil. The world is ours.
My family and I left Chicago last year and my wife & kids are happy we made the move here to the Philippines. We have no plans to go back to the U.S. The friendships we’ve made here are so much more genuine.
What a great experience. Join my live show this Sunday and let's talk about it.
a lot of love from philippines
I hear you bro! I once lived in an island called Manhattan. Now in an island in the Philippines. Best decision I ever made. Life and people here are beautiful!
It's like the complete opposite.
I learned that 15 years ago. I lived in DAVAO when they were still kidnapping and I felt more safe there than in Texas. I also learned Filipino are not racist. The racism comes from the west. So yes if you can't accept and live like the locals such as a simple life able to eat even though a cockroach or ants run across the table while you are eating. Don't complain stay in your country because Philippines is more than getting women to me it's about the respect.
"...able to eat even though a cockroach or ants run across the table..." hilarious but true! It is not a big deal for us Filipinos.
He’ll I grew up in Louisiana. I had pet roaches.
Very true
Of course there are racist Filipinos.
Every ethnicity has them.
@@gargamel55 nothing I say nothing like other countries. I never seen a brown American hanging from a tree in the Philippines. The only time I heard a racist comment was from a white guy to a black guy with security. They put guns to his head and made him apologize. Actually I was all over the Muslim strongholds and not 1 single time I was discriminated against
Hi, my wife and I moved to the Philippines a little over 1 year ago. We found a place out in the country near the Taal Lake and Volcano. We love it here, and have become part of the community. This pandemic has put a brake on our ability to travel to many parts of the PI. But I still love it here. If you are ever in our area, Tagaytay, you are welcome to come for a visit.
I love it here in the philipines. I moved here to the beach life here in the Philippines to relax and enjoy life. I now am a vlogger too, but didn't come here to do it. It is just fun to show how great it is here. Check my channel! careful of that Taal volcano! lol..
@@sanjuanlaunionvlog I just started vlogging a couple months ago. Fortunatly, We didn't get much volcanic ash at our property, the winds were blowing in the right direction to miss us. We did have a 3 day brownout. I will check out your Channel.
That will be the place I’m retiring. Near the lake. If not in Taal somewhere where there is a water so I can just go and fish all day long.
@@mikeeguti2165 Hi Mikee, the land with views of the Lake and volcano are some of the most expensive lands in the Philippines. We are close to the lake, but don't have a view. The Lake has only one kind of fish living in it. We are about 30mi. from Nusubu, on the west coast of Luzon. Pretty nice place. Also in Batangas. When you are ready, just come by our house and we can give you some advise.
BarryinthePI ... Thank you for your offer to help.
My wife is from The Philippines, I've been there one i can't wait to go back, I loved it there, the people, the places you can go, everything. In the United States there is just too much bullshit, people are always stressed too much fighting etc...I definitely want to retire there, moving there I don't know if we can now. This are too fucked up in the states, i wouldn't recommend coming back

Good place to retire!
On a superficial glance, an alpine meadow seems ideal too. Wait till winter. Way, way more bullshit in the Philippines. Tones of examples of you being a cow that should be milked and sent home to get more when dry.
First let me say I loved my time in the Philippines.
Thing that suck in the PI.
Food safety
Air safety
Fake medicines
fake policemen
fake judges and lawyers
Fake doctors (the ones in hospitals)
fake cement
fake rebar
All these things are fake sometimes because the government is run on the principal that government servants are for sale to certify anything if they are paid.
Can't wait to move there in two years. You are so right. Always some bullshit here. And you always have to pay bills and expenses all the time because everything is pricey to a point where you struggle to maintain. Money is always number one here and it seems into your relationship and end up breaking what you have. Plus the media is corrupting folks too. It's morally corrupt. This country only has money. You find people here with lots of it but they are the most miserable. Go to places like the Phillipines, they are so happy with having less. Money isn't their number one to survive.
a lot of love from Filipino

Thanks. I saw your videos you make good vlogs
U right🤗 Pinoy love all foreign people always👍💪😄😄❤🙏
Always happy to see an outsider marrying a Filipina woman and standing by her. This guy is not one of those guys who just come to your country and bang as many women as they can. It's refreshing to see a real man stand up unlike all these Jokers running around thinking their a man just cuz they got money in their pocket. You're real, brotha. I like that.
I really concur with your video. Having lived in the Philippines back in the day in 1991 at Clark Air Base (Angeles). I always wanted to go back to the Philippines. Now, I am getting to retirement age so really contemplating that move in the future.. Having been blessed and lived in six (6) countries in my life. Philippines, Japan, Korea, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and the Marshall Islands. A total of about 19 years living overseas in my 57 years of life. Of course the Philippines have been the best country I lived in, Be glad to see more videos as you done in the past, GOD speed., now time to share this informative video.
Good video Jay, I've been feeling the same way about my life in America I need that simple life of the Philippines..
People change when they get older. With that change, it is best to change your scenery as well.

I’ve never experienced any type of racism in the Philippines even none from other expats....here I’ve experienced it several times...everyone I had encountered there were nice and helpful...
I think Filipinos are so focus in racism against Chinese and vise versa..
I seen them be racist to Muslim Filipinos mostly
@@oliverclothesoff4142 Muslim isn't a race
Racism here stand on a regional standpoint. If you're from countryside or from Visayas or Mindanao, they will make fun of you, especially from people in Manila.
Hello Brother my name is Scott from Chicago Illinois I’ve just got back to Chicago August 1 I went to the Philippines and February 29 to get married to my Filipina we finally got married in May 22 so in a way I was stuck there for four more months because of the lockdowns but it was OK because I was with my beautiful wife and her family in the province we live in that’s near the town of surigao we lived in a small village about 30 minutes out of the town my family law is farmers very poor but not poor than some near us so the house was OK no Aircon as you know open ceilings and open windows but after a couple of months I got used to the mosquitoes in the flies I got used to living that way as my wife said like a Filipino so I got back to Chicago on August 1 I was stuck in Manila for five days after I left her island to travel back to Chicago I had to get a swab test to get on the sleeper plane back to Chicago but I made it back here it is totally different I was there for five months with her in the family living a good life not much money but we were happy I am on a 14 day quarantine right now until I can return back to work they told me this Monday I can go back I will return to the Philippines in about one year and a half hopefully by then my wife will be able to travel back with me to the United States but we do want to go back there in about nine or 10 years when I can fully retire and have my full pension paid it is a beautiful country and I love the people there just got your videos started watching him now I subscribed to your channel now thank you please keep up the great videos and I will keep watching one day if I am passing through Manila I will shoot you a message and maybe we can meet for some coffee or something thank you again

Please for the love of God don't bring women back to america, feminism brainwashes them and she'll divorce you and take everything! Move to the Philippines with her! Please don't make the same mistake hundreds of men have done!
Establish a small business in Philippines that she can help u run do not bring her to America you'll lose it all!
@@TheBlackFilipino hopefully you live in the Philippines and never bring your wife to America.

Love the Philippines. I'll be glad when we get a vaccine for this virus so i can return. Thanx for the info bro
Nothing unusual here. In the Philippines, they accept you for who you are. In the USA, you're just another black guy. Bravo.
Haha you better play good at basketball as you had surely been invited to Barangay Tournaments hahah
You are right. It's sad though. I want to go there too. I need somewhere like this and plus my girl is over there. I need a change of pace. This man here is lucky. This is where I wanna be in two years. Not here in the US. It's getting nuts here
Dickens Dumont I hope you’re not in Portland OR bro.
@@schneider9615 No way. Thank God. I'm in New Jersey. One thing I can say about Jersey. It's very chill there. I give it that. Portland has gotten nuts. The whole Western side of the country as well. This man is lucky to be in the Philippines. Just look at him. You can see the peace and tranquility on his face. Why come back to the US and deal with the BS you have to deal with as a Black man when you can be here and have a woman that loves him and happiness? I would wish this life this man has for anybody. Thank you so much for your concern. We need to have it for each other right now. More than ever
@@anthonybroomfield5162 Their racism has no "teeth". It needn't affect you unless you let it. It's not like the Jim Crow south. Peace.

yes same!
This man deserves a million subs
Filipinos settles for what they have. They are good people.
Philippines and Indonesia makes you feel relaxed. Most importantly, people mind their own business. Unlike in US or anywhere else. It's just hard to want to leave after being in South East Asia.
It is and people don't realize there are great business opportunities here. No need for a regular 9 - 5
@@TheBlackFilipino I've seen countless videos warning against attempting any type of business other than online, it's very risky for a foreigner to have a B&M business in the Fils,besides the constant flow of red tape,the risk of violence is very real for an outsider. Even a small water supply service can raise anger and have you shot dead. How about a video on which types of business you think a foreigner can do? I'm sure that when this pandemic is over there will be good opportunities after the firesales.
South America too simply
Indo and Phils aren’t too noisy? Vietnam is hell of noisy, hard to get anything done if you work online...
I think filipinos are more forgiving, and adaptable than the Americans.
I think so too. Americans are spoiled.
I agree. Almost to the point where in some instances, detrimental to society. (Lack of discipline).
not forgiving
Mostly foreigners are very impatient and temperamental. Small things, they make as big problem 😀 Can’t wait to go back to my country, Philippines 🇵🇭🇨🇦
@@fredner1000 Foreigners like efficiency. Pinas is the land of inconvenience. Money lost to productivity due to traffic (as 1 example) is in the billions of PHP per year. Another small example would be going to some stores, paying with a 1K or a 500Php bill and the vendor saying they don't have change (and make zero effort to get it).. that's not my problem.. ill take my business somewhere else... many more to list.
This is my opinion along with other friends who left the Philippines during the late 80s/eariy 90s to finish school, and have returned to take care of business. That said, Philippines is alright...
Province life in the U.S. is boring while in the Philippines... oh my goodness... you got a lot of choices for adventures and you see/meet a lot of people who will treat you like you are one of them. In the U.S., Americans scan you head to foot, then look at your color and if you don't talk the way they talk then they will look down at you.
Especially seeing them hot province girls. Why does poor countries always have the most beautiful women. In Philippines your head be spinning see all them fine ladies.😁

My life, my family, my business is there but I'll always visit the US cause of my family and the food lol. Keep up what your doin man much respect.
Same for me I have to visit because of my fam but other than that I will be here.
@@theevangelist3174 Hello, well my family is in the agriculture business, rice planting and during the pandemic the agriculture business is booming, however other businesses like rental property apartments or commercial property , so if you can own land there and can do agriculture or commercial rental you'll be good, land is cheap there. Short term is sending imported goods there through cargo or balikbayan boxes and selling there or opening a store there, you can sell can goods, electronics, clothing for pretty much double the price. Hope this helps.
Been there one time to meet my wife..you are so correct the people are great there and it seems so more relaxed then here..i wish i had some way to get back there and live..You are very lucky man stay there do not come back here i wish i could join you there and feel the same way.
As a person of color I feel safer here in Cebu than New York.... I am happy and at peace... Done with America.. Racism, police, negativity... Every place has its issues but it is very different here.

@@marktimberlake248 I was offered a place in the countryside of Cebu City
The only downside i have with Philippines is it so hard to do business. They really need to open foreign investmen more. I don't like having to have business in Singapore or Malaysia traveling back and forth. It would be less work being able to do business freely without so many restrictions on foreigners. Hope that will change.
I don't think it will ever change but you never know
@@TheBlackFilipino
Hopefully it does. Because that would boost the economy. Until now PHP is still behind all others when it comes to attracting foreign investors. Way, way, behind.
@mistaeric
Yes, that's true but when a local sees you as competition they would throw a wrench into it and there is nothing you can do about it. They always take the locals side. In the end, it's all about money. Either you pay the bribes or you're history.😁
They need to.
Ismail Marsh Depending in the business you want to start, probably better to do it in metto areas such as Manila or Cebu where competition is more fair. No dependence on patronage by a politician or even direct competition with a politician’s own business. Best of luck to you!
I was living in Cebu and had a call center recently. But neither now. I'm now looking at full-time vlogging. I'm from Atlanta. If I'm in Manila...I have to hit you up. Looking to start back again traveling to Southeast Asia by November. 👣

True words bro,. Never forget where we came from, I just can't stay there anymore.💯👊🏼
I will retire in to the Philippines next July. No maybe's, no excuses. I'm there! I love the Phiilippines and it's incredible people. Here in the US right now I feel like a foreigner in my own country. Great video. Great channel. Congratulations!
Hollar bro I’m in NY right now but I was born and raised there in the Philippines 🇵🇭. I can totally relate, I’ve also lived in Manila but im staying in the province now where my wife is when I’m there. The province is definitely a more suitable place for people who are looking for a slower chilled pace. I know it’s not perfect there and poverty is very apparent. But I can personally attest that people are much more happier there and they are more appreciative of what they have. The people are so resilient despite of the personal and natural tragedies that does happened more then one would like. The US is the land of opportunity but I do miss just laying down and enjoying looking at the stars ⭐️ at nigh and actually appreciating it. God Bless bro and God speed on your adventures in the Philippines 🇵🇭. MABUHAY PARE 😎
Thanks for the love.
I totally agree with you about refusing to move back to the US. I was supposed to be in the Philippines months ago to celebrate my 1 yr anniversary in my LDR, but then this happened and now hopefully next year I can travel there.

Good job, enjoy your time & stay safe.
I need to go there and try and find a good wife. The women seem more tranquil and respectful. I'VE seen a lot of retired guys going there and ending up with good relationships and marriages. It seems like most women today in the US want perfection and materialism.
digital l When this world crisis is over. Plant your boots in the ground for at least 6 months. See,Feel,Smell,Taste what this country is all about. Once you start learning Tagalog and Bisaya, you will not get hit with the Kano tax so much. Always have an exit plan, from any country.
Maraming Salamat Po
But don't rush to find someone here sir. You might end up to a wrong relationship. You have to get to know them first. Filipinas are really caring but some are not. But you can find someone who can be with you here.. God bless.
@@kyozki6716 Exactly. You don't want to end up like that Joseph Pemberton who end up killing the trans who catfished him.

It great to see someone finding happiness in another country, it is a big deal to leave your home country.
Brotha man , the genuine hospitality and presence of people welcoming a person is contagious. Its instantly felt by those who have lived in a crap shoot of mood swings by those you would like to say is your fellow countrymen...

Come home.

I dont live in NYC, I live on the other side of the state (Buffalo) and where I live i can see the Canada and cant go because the borders are closed. Trust me dude! Don't come back here to the states. If I could live the United States, I would be living in the Philippines. I was supposed to visit the Philippines back in March for 6 weeks.

Nice to see your videos and i love that you don’t want to leave Philippines thank you for loving our Philippines 🥰☺️❤️
With all the things you’ve said brother, feels like I like to go home now. Good luck to you and your family. Filipinos are easy to be with and with that smile and positivity you’ll definitely get more love from us. Much love brother..God Bless.
It's about having money - no matter where you are. Money to live well, with less stress, and travel. Every country favors richer people. If you make $60,000 a year in the US you are struggling. $60,000 a year in the Philippines you are not struggling.
I saw some comments talking about money. Maybe you guys should do your research before bashing the Philippines. I think I am well off more than 95% of you and I never ever considered myself more than a local. Even stayed with my good friend as a squatter for 1 month. Loved it.. What you don't get is the hospitality in the 30 countries I been to like the Philippines. Most of you only think of flashing money for sex with the local beautiful women or the bakla. Just so you will know if you have sex with a separated woman you will go to prison. So beware and enjoy what the Philippines has to offer.
Yes. I don't think anyone should just travel for the cheap sex you can find here.
@@TheBlackFilipino It's not just about cheap sex, the law prohibits divorce, it is possible to have a marriage cancelled by a process called annulment which is very expensive and most Filipinos can't afford. So even if your Fil GF has been separated (still lawfully married) if her ex wants to bring some shit down on you, you're looking at jail time. Be careful with separated Filipinas, even a family member or work jealous work colleague could have you charged with adultery..... yes it's a crime in the Fils.
Great video was there last year for four months can’t wait to return I’ll be going to Siquijor
This is the first of your videos I have viewed ...good talk.
Thank you.

Va btother.!!!!😀👍👍👍
You don’t want to be here in the US right now Jay - it’s a mess.
I know my family and friends tell me all the time.
It’s not so good in Phil’s or anywhere at. This time I sure hope it was open like it was,I was there 6 times in last 5 yrs and had the best time ever
You're right . We are planning to retired in the Philippines. . I am a pilipina.. I been here in the United states for 44 years. . 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇵🇭🇵🇭🙏🕊
@@TheBlackFilipino trust me. You are so better off like Foodie said. It's way more than a mess here. It's a damn catastrophe. You are living a great life there.
Pinoy heart woooh you wanna go here right jay hahahha. Keep safe Idol Jay

Thanks for this video. It helps me and my wife to decide where to go next year. ❤👍
Jay, I am also from your home state,me and my wife can't wait till I retire and move to the Philippines.
When do you retire?
@@TheBlackFilipino 5 years
That's my retirement plan living abroad in the Philippines..
I hope you are right about things opening back up. Nice vid, thanks.
Wow. Thank you for this video. God bless you guys 🙂
August 31st travelers can enter the Philippines. That's what I was told 2 days ago
What? Really? Who said?
Friend from DFA. That the country will collapse if it goes past August 18. The economy has dropped 27%.
@@byron8696 Duterte said the country can't go back to MECQ after this last lockdown.
I hope you’re correct. I need to fly back to Cebu ASAP.
I also need to fly. I have the remains of my wife who I need to return to her family. She died April 26 2020
Great advice I been watching you for some years I think you are a great example of showing men how to love and respect their wife not look at Philippines women as just sex objects
I hear you my brother! I'm from Queens and I go to Malaysia every 2 years to visit my wife's family. Going to move there when I retire.
Stay positive and be safe out there brother Jay
