- Expats Never Leaving the Philippines/Discover Why They Call Dumaguete Home@paulinthephilippinesolddog9234
The locals of Dumaguete City hold a special place in our hearts. Always wearing a warm smile, they welcome you with open arms and make you feel like a part of their family. It's this genuine kindness that sets Dumaguete apart and makes it truly feel like home. shedding stress, making new friends, and finding it affordable to retire on less are some of the reasons we call Dumaguete "Home"
Thanks for Watching!
This is the only dating site I recommend for serious relationships with a Filipina (pay site, more of a full service to help eliminate bad matches and save you time)

Apparently a lot of people care more about these gentlemen's beltline than to actually learn something. Sad. Oh the life of a troll muat be so perfect.
Not trolling it's just a shock to see
The white knight all fatso's need.
@@jacked6These guys are 'hansom',😂😂
No doubt you have a belly like that too 😂
But actually when the Filipina pee did her recent trip to the US most people in the Malls restaurants and adventure parks were the same size as these guys
@@roswo I think they know their overweight, I don't think enabling is possible. I tell you what, I've travelled the world and lived in a number of countries, you have to be a very strong and resourceful person. These gentlemen are doing something 80% of people could never do. I doubt if they would even care what unkind people out here said. I'm sure they've heard it all on their journey. Probably why they wanted to make the move in the first place. Unkind people.
Made my son watch this. He doesn't think I'm fat anymore
LMFAO
Juice fasting is the only thing that can clear those blockages
😂
Lmfao 🎉😂😂
Hahaha
These fellows need a healthier lifestyle to be able to enjoy those lives there for years to come.
They're ignorant guys who worked regular jobs
It’s pretty sad to be honest as they have very short lives in front of them when they have finally found how happy they are & they won’t get to enjoy it. We all know the 3 of them are diabetic & wont last long
True! I see a Corvette shirt, and I am sorry, but he could never get into my C6 Vette. Never, I am 5' 9" and mostly muscle 195 pounds, and I have to stay in shape to do it. These guys are in shape to do just what you see here, talk. Nothing else can happen for long at that size at that age. Butterbean was a freak of nature and much younger than this.
These guys are 1 French fry away from major heart attacks 😮....
whew you're right good grief. the poor guy on the left oh wow that's just sad
@@bayoumanbryanyou know if you have nothing nice to say then just do us all a favor and say nothing. Just a piece of advice hopefully you'll take it and learn something
@@mikejones1137 i used to be @ 340 lbs i lost over 110 lbs and i was disgusting then also
@@mikejones1137
There's nothing wrong with people having opinions & voicing them on TH-cam comments. As long as people are talking facts.
@@keepitreal1547 your not talking facts your just voicing your opinion. Like I said before if you have NOTHING NICE TO SAY THEN SAY NOTHING. Where are your facts you don't even know those people your just stating what you think which is only a opinion. But in my eyes you were just being rude
These guys are a great reminder that it takes a lot of "guts" to pack it in and move overseas.😂🏝🇵🇭
The reason they won’t leave seems more to do with logistics, rather than desire ;)
They were certainly "hungry" for a new life overseas.
Exactly!
Perhaps it's 'inspiration' for some people - and - 'desperation' - for others. ( ? ) -- Funny how ''that'' can lead to the same place ?
Paul, you lost weight. Tell these whales the truth and give them tips.
They ain’t missed many meals. Hats off to them for taking action on the move
Since Goldfinger is sitting in the middle……can we rename him middlefinger😂😂😂
Perfect
@@paulinthephilippinesolddog9234 🤣😂😀
😂😅😂😅
That’s hilarious
LOL
I see these guys doing pull-ups down on the boardwalk in the mornings.
Yeah! I saw them too, they were hard to miss. it looks like all that exercise is working!! Great Job, Boys!
You must be having a laugh. Pull ups with guts like those 3. Walking would be an effort.
16 ounces at a time! San Miguel Lights!!!
@@stanleyboothe4893 the guy in the blue will do a sit-up if you put a doughnut on his knee.
Pulling their shorts up. Say no to crack.
I sure hope they all consider getting a grip on their diets. Start a walking club etc. YOU CAN DO IT FELLAS 🙌
Its hard to look at such morbid obesity. Get some activity boys. You will be happy you did.
What I have learned watching your videos Paul and the rest of the expats are the people there are genuine and down to earth. Family is most important where you live, the US people are into their selves. Enjoy gentlemen.
Fabulous interview they are all lovely men I wish them happiness the boy in the red shirt seems very happy that’s got to be better than living lonely in USA
I think I am changing my plans and moving to Duma. I am now officially Brad Pitt. These guys seem super nice, but they need a healthier lifestyle to enjoy a "long stay" and the PH is not the epitome of healthy food selections. 🙏
I am now officially George Clooney and will be heading to Duma myself. If I can't find a woman there, at least I know I will eat well.
Avoid it. City sucks. A wealthy expat in El Nido
Maybe that's why their 'girlfriends' aren't asking for money.........thinking they won't have to wait too long, before they cop the lot?
@@SalamatUKexactly what l thought. If they give money to their family in the end it will be taking away what they will end up getting. These women know what they are doing and are sticking to their plan.
It's an awful depressing town to live in full of washed up old losers. dumaguete has the lowest class of foreigners in all of the Philippines
You people need to go on the keto diet. With that weight you will not last 5 years. Get your BMI into alignment, you will feel much better.
Hi Paul, this video is proof your videos made an impact on these fellows to come and settle in 'Sleepy Dumaguette' as you call it for precisely the same reasons I like them especially when you would take your trusted First Officer, Baby Mae, and take us around town ... we got to see the stores, people bustling on the streets, restaurants, markets, touristy spots. These fellows were lots of fun😊
Great group of guys. It is clear, that home for them, is more about the people, than the place.
What these guys say, hold a lot of weight
I bet Goldfinger is really feeling like a stud . Being the smallest one in the group!😜
He gets that alone. Handsome sir😂
He says he went to The Philippines for the women alone.
That being the case, why didn't he consider his looks, his health first?
What woman would be attracted to obese guys like this...desperate only.
Speed it up their getting hungry.
Wow, these guys really let themselves go.
Thanks guys for coming in the Philippines. Enjoy the tropical islands. God bless.
Your happiness is up to you. Good on you gentlemen for making the changes needed
I like the teletubbies as much as the next guy ...but really 😮
😆
Dang have these guys been eating at buffets all this time? 😂 I can't even imagine the mobility issues. Filipinos look much slimmer. How are these guys so large? Get your blood sugars tested, stay healthy! How does sitting on an airplane work? 2 seat purchase?
Thanks for posting these Paul, good, candid conversations., these guys look so relaxed and not stressed out the way i see folks here in the U.S. enjoy your retirement!!
Seems like 3 decent guys. I hope you enjoy many fantastic years ahead
Got 5 kids not heard from them for 8 yrs,,Son got married ,I did not get invited, Daughters had kids but don't know their names, so hearing from theses men reinforces my decision..
Great video. This seems like a really good group of guys who want to build and be part of a community. Well done.
The first thing I saw was their physical stature. While the interview went on, it was more of what they had to say and not the physical. All had very relatable stories and I learned a lot about the ability to help others and still live your best life. Thanks Paul , good video!
See that's another reason alot of us ex military people come is we Miss the adventures and traveling like we did. I been around the world being with the 82nd Airborne Infantry ( Paratrooper) . Miss the traveling so Philippines is a great home duty station i will call it . But still can go to other countries for vacation with my wife ❤ great video again Old Dog keep them coming
The cost of living, the way the locals treat them and an easy going laid back atmosphere with great weather and beautiful ocean and lush vegetation. Count me in!!
the desperate young beautiful girls desperate to escape a life of poverty has nothing to do with these whales wanting to move there at all right
@@jonv570 Who made you judge, jury and executioner on these men? You know none of them but seem to feel the need to hate on them. All of them have loyal strong women who are not bar girl types. Nor are they in need of anyone's sympathy or opinions. If you ever do spend any time there you will see the women still run the house!
@perryhenrickson7750 I have spent time there, that's why I know how poor they are.Also the woman are loyal to their wallets not there whales
@@jonv570 🤐
You might be a bit surprised at the cost of living. Better get better informed before you make the decision.
Enjoyed these guys! They all have a great outlook on their lives in the Philippines.
Big outlook indeed😂
They ain’t leaving cause that’s way too much weight to move. What a motley but fun crew I’m sure.
Nice to see the guys relaxed and enjoying where they are.
WOW!! Looks like they an entire farm's Balut.
Some people here make jokes about these men's build which is unfortunate. Hope though that this video's target market will take notes on the golden nuggets that the 3 gentlemen have shared on making a bold move in starting a new life in another city/country - in this case Dumaguete/Philippines. Great flow of convo and good work Paul on this interview!
Bro… it’s pretty hard to ignore a Tweedledum and TweedleDee competition! Humpty Dumpty would’ve been proud!😮😳😱
I assure you, these guys don't mind the fat shaming.
they might share golden nuggets they sure won't share their chicken nuggets
Dude. I am not gonna lie. That was a great selection. In some places you would spend months and months to find a selection of three such handsome dudes😂😂😂
real nice you must be@@afrivox
Thank You Paul and guys for a great chat - video. Sharing your own outlook in life, what you have exsperienced along with providing lots of other great info for individuals like minded who know Networking is the BEST - sharing is Learning. Have a great day!
As a fellow traveller, currently in Bohol, I can verify what they say. SEA is better in every aspect that matters. The West is broken, society is imploding, and the people revere money instead of building something. These guys are building lives for themselves and their loved ones, good on them.
Great video interview Paul and good luck to all of them!
All 3 had the courage to leave the states and not become the usual invisible man to die alone. I commend them for their bravery.
These guys can't be invisible even to tye blind😂😂😂
I believe these women will make these guys expire before their time, you really think this is about love, they need to watch their backs.
@@humungushumungus213 are you really going to blame their weight on a woman they met last year? As for love, trust me, anyone with an IQ of above 80 knows what is going on there 😆 🤣
@@humungushumungus213 I don't think so. The gals will likely motivate them to get in shape.
Where do see bravery?? You buy a plane ticket and squeeze that massive booty into the plane seat. You land, then you are in PI... What is so brave about that?
I’m not going to miss my U.S. life. Especially the winters! ❄️🥶 I look at my Ring cameras, see the snow piling up, while enjoying the tropical weather here, and dread having to return home at the end of February. But I need to liquidate everything in the U.S. so I can live comfortably here in the Philippines. 😎🌴
Still scouting for my forever home, and hopefully Negros will be where we decide? Talk my Wife into it, Paul, when we come there in February? 🤞
Well done.great interview of the 3 amigos expats.great video..
I am worried about them. I hope they'll have a few decades to live to enjoy life. ❤❤❤
A bit like the rolly polly club, I think its time for someone to tell them a bit about the healthy options in life )))
You know those things girls are not there for the fat
wonderfull men experienced same behaviour from offspring their mothers can now enjoy them lovely to see and hear wholesome interview thank u all for sharing your experiences wishing u well and more
Look at the smiles in their faces. They sure discovered where fountain of youth is. Enjoy your old-young again time in Dumaguete.
May God bless them all. Paul, you really do a great service to so many people.
I really enjoyed this video! Goldfinger and I share the pancreatic cancer thing. I had stage 3, whipple and 7 months of chemo, and Docs say I have "years."
Thanks for sharing guys 👍
My plane ✈️ takes off tomorrow.
Why did I choose Dumaguete? Because that’s where the TH-cam channels are that I watch 😂
It’s like 11 degrees here right now, can’t wait to get out of here.
Cool. Have a safe trip!!
@@DavidIke07 Thank you ! 👊
Safe travels and welcome to paradise my new friend 😅
@@-goldfinger2695 Thanks Goldfinger !
You lucky devil. Envy
2 questions it would be great to ask you and the other guys in another interview:
1. Health care and how they go about it, along with the quality, and recommendations.
2. Have they bothered learning the local language/dialect there and do they think it might be worthwhile to do.
Very Good Video Paul and Crew 😊. I like the Positivity.
Keep the video's comin.
Stay Safe 💕 💞 🙏 🙏
We will
I always enjoy conversations with these guys. They tell it like it is and demonstrate how life can be improved. Great Video.
OMG i think those guys are taking heavy risk. When i see their body shape, and knowing that in the Philipinnes sugar in foods, fries foods and heath care are Issues.... I think that Diabet and heart attack are at the next street corner.
Exactly, not to mention the nightmare health care that Paul himself made a video about just weeks ago.
No one at all, can say these three guys are leading a healthy lifestyle.
Paul thanks again for the videos. I have been watching your videos for a while now along with the Filipino Pea it is you and other TH-camrs that have convinced me that when I retire two or three years I’ll be heading to the Philippines thanks for all you do
Good luck and God Bless !
You should visit first before deciding to move cause it might not suit you
I will be taking two weeks vacation to the Philippines every year for the next 3 years to scope it out -- I will be in the Philippines on 05-02-2024 and leave on 05-15-2025 for my first visit -- Thanks for your reply @@mikejones1137
Absolutely love 💕 this conversation 👍👏👏
Wish you guys all the best
Black , white, pink , yellow or blue ALL PEOPLE WANT IS TO LIVE IN PEACE/ HAPPINESS
Great Video! Thank you, Paul
Super great interviews, packed with information. Thank you.
It would be wonderful to see you in the video also! This video has some great points and it’s so wonderful how you are helping guys get to a better place and have a better life! You are really making a difference and it would be cool if someone gave you an award!
Another great post Paul ! Thank you 😊
Can you picture any of these guys with a tiny filipina gal? I am trying hard not to! Haha
Ouch, stop diverting thoughts. Leave that to your imagination and keep it.
@@Sana_Balik_Pinas I think I may need some serious therapy. Yikes!
And they said what you see here is AFTER losing weight from all the island cooking. Wow, oh and riding around on mopeds.
Another Awesome video sir. A lot of great information.
I agree it has to do with your attitude, and "What do you want from the city you live in" as I wasn't a fan of Manilla, BGC and Cebu although allot fo good small towns after visiting Dumaguete I too fell in love with the relaxed lifestyle. It wasn't till later i met a lady there and she sealed the deal with her and her family. I plan on joining these guys "Boots on the Ground" in June. Having been there multiple times and exploring half of Negros Oriental, and All of Cebu along with other small islands. Paul is as Nice and Real in person although a busy guy and careful as some of others are not as good but Best thing was friendships i made with Filipinos as they are truly Nice, Gentle people.
thanks for sharing it with us
Thank your for informing fellas. Live well and be happy 😊
This video really helped me! I’ve been thinking a lot about the Philippines! Please do more videos like this! It helps me with the process of coming over! Jim from Minnesota😎
very good interview/info ,thanks
Great interview, it will definitely help me, since I'll be there in 2 1/2 weeks. Looking forward to meeting you guys.
Paul et al,
Many many thx, great video...
Cheers
Glenn
I am from Dumaguete and watching these guys makes me question why I am here in Canada stressed out when I do actually have a home where I can live slowly and simply and being close to family and friends. Duma will always be home and where I will retire someday. Cheers for this lovely interview!
Very enjoyable I’m glad I watched. I see 30 minutes video I tend to avoid lol good job . they are inspirational I wish them all happy lives
Thanks Paul to this nice vlog.👍
These kind of sit downs warm my heart. As a U.S. expat that retired to Mexico and have absolutely fell in love with it 6 months later. I understand that the average Joe or Jane can work extremely hard their whole life and see nothing for their older age than more work and more stress. A life of a hamster on the wheel.
Being able to take your money and or social security to another country and live a happy and stress free lifestyle is a gift.
I also have to mention that I respect these men for not trash talking their ex wives. I see so much of this on these type of channels. It just makes a person look bitter and petty. If you want to live out your years truly happy and mentally healthy, do not make decisions based on running away from something. Instead, make decisions based on running TO something.
Otherwise, you’ll end up being a bitter old prune, just in a different part of the world.
Wish everyone well. Even the ones in your past that probably don’t deserve it. But, you’ll carry a lighter load if you do that.
Enjoy guys!!!👏👏👏
I married a younger one, didn’t end good, and I am in shape and wealthy, I know women well, these guys need to watch their backs, there is no love there. They’re being worked over for their cash 😢
They are definitely trash talking their ex wives. They trash western women in general for their failed marriages.
I’m a new subscriber. I really enjoy watching your videos. Thank you very much for the time to bring folks knowledge of being a responsible expat in the Philippines. Keep up the great work! Guyz are cool. You’re definitely gonna have more fun in the Philippines.
I wish and pray I’ll be retired like you all soon and living it up in paradise.
There is no secret anymore. People here in the US are not happy like they use to be. Folks are always angry here for whatever reason. I am jealous of you guys. Take care y’all
Thanks 👌
Thanks so much for the great videos Paul...I appreciate them very much. Good job.
I like the gentleman on the left. Very sensible.
Big, bigger, biggest
I'm one minute and 5 seconds into your video and I've already learned that there's absolutely no limit to the amount of food to sustain yourself in the Philippines. LOL
I figured that out based on the thumbnail alone. I am fairly fit and the most important thing to me when I retire is to stay fit to be able to enjoy my retirement.
It tells you that the food must be pretty good there.
@@st101005 One vlogger US Jay...something said he lost weight in the Dumaguete ( healthily) this could be true anywhere in the Philippines. The humidity and heat seems like you're living in a sauna. You sweat/perspire much and such is excretion of loads of toxins and water from the body. Just hydration-- and toxins out is best. The humidity can be unpleasant especially if you first arrived, not acclimatized. When I was there a month, although I ate loads, I didn't put on weight, in fact I'm much thinner and more toned in a month because I do activities, gardening even masonry. In the west esp on wintry months, I'm more stationary, I hate the cold. I don't do much galivanting on off days. Life is work and home. Christmas has a loads of food, and easy put on weight and midrift expanding. I'm looking forward to my Philippine trip again, eating more but not gaining weight.
They didn't gain any weight since they relocated to Phillipines.
Coming here for these jokes. That's American food, the dude has been there only 10 months, the guy in red, can't eat that much in 10 months 😂😂
these guys are the reason why i subbed because they are possibly the best group that got interviewed... they are not here to find girls to become their toys.. instead they found a true partner for life. some guys are just salty i think ...
The three kings! Great interview Paul. 🎉
This channel just gets Better and Better 💯
Great interview, it's why I keep watching, best wishes to all the Guys.
I really like the concluding messages. 🙂
Awesome
Nice.
Good for John and Good for you Paul. It's refreshing to know there are still people out there that thinks of others before themselves. It takes a big heart to do what you and others did for John. Bless you brother. Sam
Thank you. Good video from experienced men.
Great video guys 😁
Thank you 👍
Great conversations , and funny guys, enjoy your stay in the Philippines guys.
I’m in the same boat. Selling all my stuff is daunting. It was -9F here yesterday, I won’t be missing that. My girlfriend is in Manila but I’ve already told her I won’t live there. I was in Dumaguete last feb/mar and I really liked it. It’s a little slow but I think I could get use to that.
I'm selling all my stuff now. It is quite the task. Trying to keep the 3 yard trash bin full.
@@sdleasia I think I might just hire a estate sale company after I give my kids anything they want
Thanks Paul for the interview with the Three Stooges.. lol 😂. They have so many good pionts and opinions .Just another great video my friend ❤
What a cool bunch of guys
Thank you for making this video. Good news. I have picked out a starting point farther north. Duma does look like it’s for me. You guys are great. Thanks again.
Great video Paul.
Good discussion of what works in Duma....
Good to see they are eating healthy!!!!!!!
Made a small donation to your paypal! Thank you for your videos! We are from Canada and We have tickets to come in October to Dumaguete! We are planning to retire there. You seem like you are a humble kind person. Thank you. Dennis and Janna
I love these guys -- so cute together!
My coworker introduced me to my girlfriend because he dumped her for a younger Phillipina which I was very disappointed in him was there last year and was amazed of her and going back in October amazing woman and country
Entertaining video. I am smiling while watching this right now. You and goldfinger have a bro chemistry
Great interview again, Paul 👍 ❤. I always love it ❤️ when you have expats in your channel who like to live here in the Philippines 🇵🇭 😀 ❤ and so appreciative of our not so perfect cultures😊. Stay safe and God bless 🙌 🙏 everyone ❤❤
