I am covered in itchy insect bites, these past 5 months. Our home is open at the top of the walls, between the roof and walls. And no screens on the windows. And the bathroom is some tin propped against some sticks. Loads of biting insects as we live directly in a tropical forest, 50 meters from a river. So, geckos and spiders are welcome predators. But, yes, they all can potentially bite us. I am more concern about the 147 venomous snake species that live around here, we have seen some very small to very large unidentified snakes, and nearest decent hospital is around a day away depending if you can catch the ferry at 11am or not. 😅

Our water issues are far from resolved. The barangay water is from a pipe from "the mountain". That means dirty water, as it leaves mud in the barrels I use to store 400 liters. When it has rained the water is yellow and brownish. When that water is not flowing, we have a line to the river 60m away, but that too isn't clean water. A well... here there are no septic tanks, only holes, so the groundwater too likely contaminated. I dream of a sophisticated purification system, but for now it is dirtyish water for toilet, bathing, dish washing and 5 gallon purchase water for drinking.

I live the same lifestyle here in the Philippines on Samal Island in Garden City as I do in the United States in Clearwater, Florida with my wife and four kids two of which are full time college students. It's all about how you want to live your life. A single person can live comfortably on $1,500 to $2,000 dollars a month anywhere in the Philippines while a Family of six can live an upper middle class lifestyle on $2,000 to $3,000 dollars a month here. What it takes to live a comfortable life in the Philippines for this American. (Me) 1) I refuse to rent, I'm not stressing about a house or rental payment every month. We own our own house that's paid for because of this specific reason. 2) I refuse to live without air-conditioning. We run our air-conditioning 24 7 Not only do we have a split air-conditioning unit ( central air ) But three window air-conditioning units as well for back up. I'm never going without air-conditioning. 3) I refuse to live without water to clean our house, take showers, do dishes, do laundry, water the plants, wash our scooters. We have Public water as well as a water tank and electric water pump. I'm never going to run out of water. 4) We keep 50 gallons of drinking water on hand at all times. I'm never going to run out of drinking water. 5) I refuse to be sitting in our house in a brown out without lights, air-conditioning, and water. We have Public commercial power as well as a generator. The generator will run everything in our house when the power goes out. We have brown outs several times a week. In most cases they last about 10 minutes but sometimes more so in the event the power is out for more than 30 minutes I will then turn the generator on. Sometime in the next two years we will be putting up solar panels. 6) We cook with propane gas. We keep two tanks so we don't have to wait around for a delivery to finish cooking a meal. I'm never running out of propane gas. 7) Transportation, when it rains we take tricycles to go anywhere we want. For now public transportation is always easy to get too. When we go to Davao city we get a taxi cab. We have two scooters mine and my wife's she prefers to ride with me but saying one breaks down we have a back up. We will be purchasing a van sometime in the near future. 8) I refuse to eat just Filipino food, We go to Davao city to shop for American food once a month, I eat 50% Filipino food and 50% American food during the month. I've said all this for one reason, If you're a person who is struggling to live in the United States trying to put food on your table and keep a roof over your head then you may want to explore the idea of relocating to the Philippines. 90% of The Philippine people speak English a big plus when moving to a new country.

@EvralTatum-Mcfield-ov2mi I rather think I am responding to my own curiosity in making a budget video, more than knocking someone else's. Budgets are as unique as the individual, the environment, and the available products. I want to show the money out for July, by showing exactly where it went. If you don't know what I like, what I buy, what I can buy, then to tell you I spend $300 or $30000 a month doesn't serve the viewer too well, in my opinion. I am living my everyday, retired life, it is not an adventure show or what not. I do not live or suffer like a poor person in my opinion. I live in a nice home, drive a nice scooter, and eat beef, chicken, pork, or fish to the tune of at least 180 grams of protein per day, while avoiding carbs like rice. That is not a poor person's meal outlook. I came from living in the Sam Houston National Forest, in a 3500 sq ft home on 4 acres, by myself in Texas. I spent around $5000 a month living the same as I live here, minus the gym all the ease of living in the Greater Houston Area. I do Zumba 1 hour a day in my home here with my woman, I walk evenings, and lift dumbells I bought for the home. Anywhose, no man, no conflict with others opinion on life, just as I was sitting on the bench in Texas, I wanted more details on how much I would actually need here. I hear it is cheaper in Vietnam and Thailland, but I was also looking for one woman to love and love me which I found here, so here I am. I hope I answered your question. I lived in Mexico and El Salvador before here, and was constantly warned on the street about murder and kidnap by passersby, never heard that daily warning here. KZbin can help, but the best thing is just buy a ticket and get on a plane to various countries, I been to over 30.

I have a home in the heart of Butuan city, a home up on a hill overlooking the Albany Golf outside of Manito and a home on Samal Island in garden City. We spend $2,700.00 dollars a month living on Samal Island because Samal Island is the Florida of the Philippines. It has probably if I had to guess 80 to 100 different resorts to eat and swim at. We spent about $2,000.00 a month when living in Butuan city. Why because city life is more expensive than Providence life. Our dream home overlooking the Albany Gulf in the Providence we spend maybe $1,500 dollars a month why so little? Because all we really do for entertainment is swim everyday, don't spend a lot for fresh vegetables and fresh fruit we have 8 acres and grow all our own food to include chickens, eggs and pork.

But they're not usually aggressive, either, so you're all good.
