Good on you guys for helping your in-laws here in Australia we don’t give an allowance but we definitely send $100-$200 from time to time whenever something comes up , the bible has a quote that says honour your parents and you will live a long life 😊

Your another subscriber up your house build made me click 😃

Not bad at all

Yeah, I hope you have your wife on. She has a cute voice. It sounds a little bit like a chipmunk. I’ve noticed that with other Philippine women once in a while, not very often anyway yeah because see your wife on. Also, I went to the hospital in Manila when I had food poisoningand they ran all these tests and everything was like 5000 pesos when they were done over here in the United States that would’ve been probably $2000 easily…. I had very bad food poisoning and I attribute it to the donuts I got at the Cebu airport. They were custard donuts and they tasted tangy so the custard was bad and I was sick for three days. Thought I was gonna die. the hospital gave me very good care. It was very modern, but that was in manila. I’m going to retire in a few months and move to Dumaguete where my fiancé is. Sorry for such a long comment.

Thank you for the valuable information . I am a new fan of your vlog . I enjoy it . I watch from Cebu City.❤🧡💛💚💙💜

Which island you living brother. Me and my wife lives in Bohol

Awesome Vid, great information to have. Few more years and I will be living out that way too, so your vids have been helping me get things and paperwork ready. Oh and Joy get on the Videos!!!

Wlliam in williams AZ very nice price for all that work

Evening from here in AZ! Hope is all good.

Better to plant order and plant bermuda grass on the side and back of the house.

Building a house in Philippines is cheaper than buying a house in US.

💪 💪💪💪

Test

When you get the Philippines license do you have to give up your US license?

I'm just wondering if that little dance is the product of the process of dealing with LTO? Or, is this dance the by-product of having so much fun in the Philippines? So, how proficient is the DMV in vehicle registration?

The roosters are going ballistic!!

Nice ❤

Okay I've subscribed 😊

Agreed on price hikes of all the materials. Living in province is my dream I like to do planting but I don’t like far from the city. City life is way costly. For me I like simple life. Thanks for this video. I’m here at Grand Forks ND.

Apart from mandatory insurance cost, how much is the cost for the annual full coverage insurance you pay? (and what's the scope of full coverage?)

Good info ... but wondering why would new car required "emissions" test ?

What kind of car did you purchase a few years ago?

Good evening po

Thank you for sharing 😮

Hi. I´m António from Portugal. Great video. 1.5usd/Wp is a good price according to the location. In 5 years you will get all investment back and reduce damages. Congrats :)

Wheres LTO?

Good stuff! Thanks!

I'm interested in picking up a Yamaha r3. Are these types of bikes available? Not just Yamaha r3 but like r6, Kawasaki 400, etc?

how are you liking filipino food? barbecue here and there is totally different, and don’t even mention rare, its just undercooked there.

Agreed ! I built two houses in Luzon, Philippines = $14 & $16 USD. Way cheaper than my prior houses in California !!😮😮

Great info as i am preparing to live there permanently and this was really helpful. I've had Google Fi as a cell provider since its inception and it works well in the province and kept my same number. International calls and text prices are very reasonable for there. For many other countries there is no additional cost. The bill remains the same no matter where you are and it automatically sets up for your country. Quite a change from earlier times. Province life is not for everybody but you can adapt if you want to. For internet i bought a starlink mini. The service is expensive but i just pause it until needed. Wifi in my parts is fairly reliable but since I work remotely, extended down time is not good. I'm thinking of going solar due to brownouts but recommend at least a gas powered generator. I see folks bulding huge houses in the provinces but do not recommend it due to monthly utility costs. The simpler the better. Keep the videos coming as I find you sensible. Most of the other vloggers are way to much hype and folks might be majorly disappointed by the reality there. Appreciate what you're doing.

Hi David living in province s more cheaper and Fresh Air compare to any big city like Manila No free food like vegetable n fruits they r Dear in Mia Good Job ur in d Province Happy 4 u njoy ur retirement

I read somewhere in the comments you used to work at Area 51? Do a video about your experience there. Tell us if you encountered any aliens or other weird stuff working there.

How much it cost?

Just found your channel and subscribed. My wife is from Naga City, Bicol, but we are living in California. We are enjoying your channel as there are not many vloggers in the Bicol area.

Bang for buck for that kind of space. That's the advantage when your workers are also your relatives.. good job sir

Here in AZ our summers are the challenge! We call it reverse snowbird!

Honestly 390k for 5.5kw panels and 20kw in batteries in 2022 is pretty good. Even now, with panel and battery prices at an all time low, shopping around different installers here in Davao City they're charging roughly the same amount.

480 volts one panel? I think you mean 480 watt each panel. Correct me if i am wrong

Very helpful information… experience helps 👍🏻

Nice house but Boring outside no flowers at all very Boring to se

your channel is very good...

Dave and Joy, Is that hollow block and stucco construction? Is it easy to get topsoil delivered by the ton? Do they have cement trucks for large pours like the U.S.? What type of structural wood is used there? Thanks Dave M.

Thanks for sharing. Always interesting to hear of others journey to get here. There will, unfortunately, always be those that disagree, call you an idiot etc, but your journey is yours and it’s a great one!!! I do think there is a lot of jealousy out there from those without the balls to make the jump as you have. Coming from Australia my experience is very similar and have been called all sorts of things. But hey, they are still there complaining how bad things are and like you I am happy here enjoying the Philippines

I too served my country for 23 years. It makes me happy to see a fellow veteran who escaped the matrix. Cheers brother!

I love your channel, very positive and happy people! Cheers from Valencia, Negros Oriental!

what is important is to be happy with your family,hello from france,pat and pat in afriendly way ❤❤

good video, well done.

Hello sir. Thanks again for sharing your experience in choosing your path. You are correct about cost of living here in the US as getting a bit too high and making it a bit tougher to live. Mind you, I work in healthcare as a Respiratory Therapist, so my family and I should be living comfortably. However, we still find it challenging to save. We don’t have credit card debt, or a mortgage (we rent), or auto loan. I have student loans that is the main debt that we have. It is unfortunate that it is so expensive now. I have coworkers that have gone with early retirement and moved to the philippines. They sold their house here in the US and live comfortably with the proceeds in the philippines. They have their 401K and Roth IRAs to count on when they reach their full retirement age. They are living their best lives in the Philippines; where we should be. Take care and keep up your good work!

Like you video very honest 😊
