Hey a video idea I really think will do well or could really help is How to travel in the philippines A longer video but explaining how to use the busses and finding them How to get tickets to ferry from island to island Understanding how locals (sometimes kids) work to help people find bus stops or tell you where stops move when there's construction. Chartering vans Pretty much anything having to do with travel outside of car and motorbike
Good vid. New Sub. I'm doing my PI research etc. I'm 55 but have medical issues. I can't rough it or be anywhere too remote. I need to access food delivery/Grab. In which places can I consider living? Many thanks
I’m in Tagbilaran bohol. I have my ACRI tourist card but still couldn’t get a BPI account the teller said it has to say permanent. Been here on a tourist visa for 6 months no bank account maybe I need to go back to BGC and try a bank there
@@CoachDarren Very true Sir. I know I am very likely to be wrong, but I love my family more than I love myself. I just seen your channel and going to watch you to see what I can learn... Best of luck in all things.
@@stevenjohnsrud4655 "I know I am very likely to be wrong" I don't think at all that you are "wrong" because every individual should decide for themselves what matters most in their lives. People are as different as priorities are (and that's completely OK).
Question?...I want to book a flight from LAX to Manila, and go to other locations. I don't want to change flights for the return due to 30 day limits. Can I just booked flights with a 3-month or 4-month return, go straight to immigration in Manila airport? Request to go downstairs to extension office and get visa extension immediately on arrival. Is this the best way to do it? Or is there a better way. Things get complicated and expensive when you extend. Flight change fees, travel insurance confusion, dummy fake outbound flights. Can you please advise?
Why would you run out of money could you not just live off capital gains from investment portfolio or trade the wheel strategy on the spy and live off the premiums? Add in your pension and you shouldn’t need to work with such a low cost of living. Also aren’t capital gains much lower than most western countries?
Am clearly of a previous generation because I cringe at terrible sentence construction more so on a thumbnail. I made the mistake of bringing home a brand spanking new iPhone 14 pro max when it came out in April 2022 once quarantine was lifted and not flown home for five years due to Covid-19. I used it as a table clock because the Philippines did not have e-sim then. So not having wi-fi access is a must back home. Now there is a monthly prepaid e-sim so I can now use my latest cellphone.
Can you drop the “favorable exchange rate” argument? It’s not the exchange rate that determines the power of money. A ribeye steaks often costs 2000 pesos in the Philippines. The rate is just a system of metrics. Some goods are cheaper there, some other products are more expensive. It has nothing to do with the exchange rate. Obviously If the rate goes up, it’s better, but 1 dollar is 25 000 Vietnamese dong. So does it mean Vietnam is 500 times cheaper? No.
The assumption that your audience will also live in BGC.... Nope. Grab is not available everywhere. The other points are useful....sort of. The amount that is flagged from the USA is $600 at a time. Check.
Aww, our hero... He's going through his mousse hair gel phase. It happens to all men at his age. Unless you don't give a yes about what other people think about ANYTHING, let alone their however sadly warped opinion concerning your present appearance. It's too hot, son, never been to the Philippines, but I can tell you from anywhere in the world outside of the Arctic Circle... no. Think Japanese: no scent is best
Earn in dollars , spend in pesos. I am from Las Vegas, i own several rental properties in the US generating net monthly passive income of over $4,000/mo. I retired in Makati. i am 58, divorced, single, retired... cheers!
PH is not the ideal country for foreigners to settle foreigners in PH can't own properties full business ownership have limited rights & many are deported foreigners obtain PH citizenship if born & raised in PH which is not the case of expat newcomers The PH Dream is real for rich Filipinos only
A foreign owning a property in the philippines is a big NO NO NO. Maybe you can have 100% ownership in your business and profit. But owning a land. Is a big NO NO. Influx of Chinese would buy the lands. And grentrified it. Right now even mainland chinese fake their citizinship just to buy land here. So its a big no no..

A/C should be #1!😂
I use electric fans I can't live in the Philippines without em
Fans and screened ventilation ie windows are usually enough for me in the tropics 😊
Exactly. I need a fan. I hate air conditioners
Excellent content as always. Thank you!
Be sure to open a Charles Schwab investor checking and you will get all of your ATM fees refunded every month
Great video!😊
I use remitly, its worked for years perfect and rates are decent.
Hey a video idea I really think will do well or could really help is
How to travel in the philippines
A longer video but explaining how to use the busses and finding them
How to get tickets to ferry from island to island
Understanding how locals (sometimes kids) work to help people find bus stops or tell you where stops move when there's construction.
Chartering vans
Pretty much anything having to do with travel outside of car and motorbike
Totally agree with what you are saying brother
Your channel keeps getting better. U R a video wiz now.
i love your tan skin!!!
Totally agree with you 💯
Appreciate the love Michael, see you in the next video 🔥
How do you transfer more than 10k then without getting flagged other than btc?
Good vid. New Sub. I'm doing my PI research etc. I'm 55 but have medical issues. I can't rough it or be anywhere too remote. I need to access food delivery/Grab. In which places can I consider living? Many thanks
Grab is good unless it is rush hour. Then you wont find an available Grab. Plus you have to debate with them to turn on the A.C.
Can you make a video specifically for US veterans
I have my ACR card but it isn't helping me get a bank account. I have tried BDO and China Bank both told me i had to be in country 6 months
I’m in Tagbilaran bohol. I have my ACRI tourist card but still couldn’t get a BPI account the teller said it has to say permanent. Been here on a tourist visa for 6 months no bank account maybe I need to go back to BGC and try a bank there
Thanks for the Philippine - US Banks info. I always wonder about that. As far as opening a local account, does that apply to a dual citizens?
Open an account with Charles Schwab, no ATM fees
My top 5 would have included: good medical care, quality medications, cooler temps and clean air. .
Is it cheaper to just use Western Union to send your funds to the Philippines rather than absorb ATM fees?
My list
1 God
2 family
3 health
4 patience and understanding
5 money
In order of importance.
Amen, man has his priorities straight
I'd get rid of numbers 1 and 2 and be a lot happier
Health number 2 after God for me because I can't enjoy family or help family if I am not alive or healthy.

This is must how Saudis feel or rich Chinese students feel when they move to the usa as expats

CitiBank says I could use my ATM card there with no fees. I just have to let them know I'm traveling there. What's with that cigar - yuck.
Cigars aren't yuck. Cigarettes are yuck.

Do they have a JP Morgan chase in Manila?
Only for Business accounts, not personal, it’s in Makati
Yup in BGC
Citi Bank has one in Manila but according to them you have to keep a balance of 18k

Thailand is cheaper???
Yes but generally a much bigger language barrier, to me it's worth the extra money spent in the PI.
Chicago summer is far worst than Philippines.
