Jerry won't have any problem in Dumaguete. Lot's of expats there. Americans actually established a university there - Silliman University. He might decide on attending some classes there and participate on some "non-heated" discussion. LOL. The best is to remain neutral. Being 81 years old, he has the experience to share to younger folks.

I’d argue at that age you have less to lose. Your mother and father have already passed. Your children are likely adults. The cost of living in PH is cheaper so your pension will go further. Plus, if you’re a single man from the US, even if you’re old, it’s easy to get a woman.

@InvestorRetiredat40 Easy ? I agree. What's not easy is looking for someone with the 2 elements - 1. A good one. 2. The correct one for you. Let the mind dictates after a good research. The heart is a very poor judge of character.

Filipinos are simple loving people. Food and happiness is important to them. I’ve learned living here is a state of mind. Just relax and enjoy life. There is always something to do here and places to go. Have a good common sense of safety and build a good base of trusted friends. Watch out for people that will only take from you. Like any place in the world, there are scammers.

I am a filipina, my husband & I were married for 40 years until he passed away last year at the age of 87. He was only 9 years older than me. I took care of him (with the help of my maid) in the hospital & at home. He was bedridden for more than a year. I work in the states for 34 years & after I retired, my husband & I moved to the Philippines forgood. He enjoyed in the Philippines for 6 years.

I really like this variety. I do love watching Philippines travel videos because it's like going and getting to see and enjoy beautiful places alone by yourself though not actually, and also not by yourself (something for the eyes). But same with traveling. whether reality or virtual reality, one should not stay in paradise always, and I'm sure anyone is going to be more than willing to get out at least once in a while because anywhere, even paradise, can and will get boring. And people's stories is one of the things that anyone can enjoy just sitting down and listening to, wherever they may be as long as they'll have the time for it (something for the ears).

As a Filipina Nurse living in New York for 33 years , I think what makes Philippines a great place to live for the expats is the connection that you can have with the people. Anywhere you go in the Philippines there are strangers who are willing to connect with you in any way, be they are the ladies who sell fish in the market or the security guard in the bank or the trike driver that Jerry speaks of. They will smile at you, say “good morning, sir”. It’s the connection that’s sadly missing here in the States. And even better, after that initial meeting, they’re your friends for life. I’m so proud of my people and the home of my heart. We might not be a land with abundant wealth and power, but the Filipino people are a priceless treasure. And Jerry, a tip, you can find good, older Filipina women with great character, education and breeding , the so called matandang dalaga, bachelorettes who’ve never been married in their 30’s or 40’s (who look like they’re in their 20’s )who will take care of you and cherish you as you deserve. Good Luck!

So many guys sell thieir house before moving to the PH. I so wish they would be advised, for Christ's sake, DON'T SELL YOUR HOUSE! 75% of guys move back home within 5 years. I lasted four., The paradise sydrome wears off after awhile and theres a hell of a difference bewtween visiting the PH and actually living there. When I returned I had NOWHERE to go because I had sold my house! I ended up living in a RV traveling the backcpountry and boondocking in the woods for the 4 years of the Xi-Na Virus. Finally just now I found a town cheap enough to buy myself a house. Rent out your house! Don't sell it.

Jerry said if it doesn’t work out he can always move back. The fact that his children encouraged him to make the move tells me he has a great support system and will have no problem finding a place to live if he does go back.

75 years old living here for 16 years. Biggest problem is getting in and out of tricycles (ha ha). Certainly doesn’t cost as much to live over here. (Living in Nora Aunor’s hometown here in Beautiful Bicolandia). Additionally, if you’re my age, a word of caution about dating a beautiful 18 year old woman!

This one hits so close to home. I am a 72 yr old woman and I may find myself alone soon. I won’t be able to live where I am on just my pensions and am considering moving overseas to a place like the Philippines. Thanks for this video. I was thinking I would not be able to do it. Unlike this gentleman, I have flown many times so I’m not worried about that.

I'll be 73 in May (going on 35... OK, maybe going on 40 🤣🤣) and plan on flying out from Dallas on my birthday! I just can't wait! Dumaguete to Valencia/ Bacong. Thanks Chad, for a great interview and yes, I just subbed.

I really love this story. --- I'm 73 & been considering it for more than a year also ! --- Difference is I'm not going to Dumaguete - or - looking for a Filipina. Adventure cost of living and friendly people appeals to me. Expat company will also be nice from all over the world. --- My sentiments are shared exactly with what Jerry describes about moving there !!! (w/o the women)

@@frankkluz9787 my point is it is full of Americans, may as well remain in the States if you want to hang around Americans. Now, my Filipina wife is from Iligan City; so few Americans, you can count them on one hand. In fact, whenever we visit, I believe I'm the only American there. Now, if it were me, I'd live with the Natives and enjoy all that has to offer. Anyways, I'm happy that he at least took a leap of faith at being happy...

All it takes is discernment to get the right one. Find one so that you will be guided by her with all the places to travel and with the cultures here in the Philippines. God bless you. 🙏♥️🇵🇭
