    That’s why many filipino teachers prefer to go to Thailand. The salary is higher and the cost of living is cheaper plus the health benefits is also ok. 👌🏻

      @@dantesalazar7805 higher than here in the Philippines but lesser compared to other nationalities. I’ve heard from my other colleagues that the pay for Filipino teachers in Thailand is different compared to other nationalities. But I don’t blame Thailand for that coz filipinos are desperate to find a job with a decent salary.

Also soon by 2028 Philippines will have the biggest and modern Airport in Asia and its located in Bulacan about 1 1/2 hours from Manila. Lastly a Subway train is now being built in Manila.

    I lived in California for over thirty five years
    and now live in Texas. I can tell you that the
    same retail jobs pay $1 5k to $20k more in
    CA. I also found that services here in TX are
    more than in CA. Restaurants are more
    expensive in TX in my experience as well.
    Property taxes supplement the state having
    no state tax. Homes that cost $600k four
    years ago are $950k to $1 M in the North
    Dallas area. So, unless you move to rural
    areas, the cost of homes has changed in the
    last five years. My neighbor bought his home
    two years before us for half the price. I think
    people are working with outdated information
    when it comes to TX being cheap. Not any
    more. Make sure you do some investment while seating at home. All thanks to Mrs Sophia She's really help me my small investment capital of $10k to earn $157k every month all thanks to Mrs Sophia
