Mike you have such a casual demeanor listening to you is like have a conversation with an old friend. You've given me so much useful information. I plan to retire and move to the Philippines next year and that adventure will be more successful because of your advice. So thanks friend.

One thing i can tell you older guys out here. I'm 67yo and dating was not very hard at all. My girl speaks both languages. That was a huge advantage. You guys get a good filipina they will do everything they can to make you happy! Happy New Year all 7:31

I agree 100% Mike. I'm so tired of the rat race that I live in. I'll be using next year to take care of everything that's needed to retire in the Philippines. Selling house, medical, getting 13A, etc. I'm retiring Dec of next year and the flying over in March of 2025 after making sure my SS and pensions are working correctly. Can't wait!

im reading this comment of yours, am the complete opposite-a middle age single filipina who just started life here in US with a stable job in the healthcare and realized life here in US is only good in your working age. In 3 years i can apply for US citizenship but hell no am not gonna renounce my filipino citizenship, i can be dual. . Seeing how foreiigners view my country as paradise while its own citizens perceive the Philippines as hell and land of no opportunity is absurd. I could not agree for the ambivalence. I feel like a aged a lot working here in US and wished i could have a longer lifespan and stay healthy to go back to my country and live there thinking its MY PARADISE jiust like what u US/western retirees think of it. Good luck, thanks for choosing the Philippines as your place of retirement despite of its being prone to natural calamities and not so strong economy compared to its neighboring countries.

Mike, you are someone I hope to sit down with when I make it over there. My trip has been delayed until 2025, an I am lucky that my Filipina is waiting for my move there. The cost of living and the stress and not being alone, are all the same reasons you talk about. Merry Christmas 😊

As usual, Mike, you lay things out in realistic terms! Everything you talked about struck a chord with me. After my Filipina Wife passed, a little over 2 years ago, I couldn’t find the happiness I knew, and loneliness was my constant companion. My late Wife and I had planned to retire there, and one day I decided to pursue my half of it. Fortunately, I met the most incredible lady I’ve ever known! Christine is excited about the possibility of meeting Janet, and since I joined your channel, 7 months ago, I feel like I’m sitting with a long-time friend, when I watch your videos! I hope that we can sit down over a cup of coffee and I can introduce you and Janet to the reason I get up each day. Maybe I’ll bring you a birthday gift? Only 400 more subs to hit your 2023 goal! Great job 👍

You know Mike, what you share on your KZbin channel about your move to the Philippines, finding, falling in love, and marrying your beautiful wife, just living life there has really peaked my interest in coming there myself. What you say about being lonely when you where single also hits a cord. I never knew loneliness before this last year. My wife & I were married when we were 19 years old. We were happily married for 46 years. She died almost a year ago. I've been blessed with good health and fitness my entire life. Right now, I'm thinking about how to find that beautiful woman I believe God has for me. Maybe she is in the Philippines.

That could be a rental or in long term if you live in it then less monthly expenses for sure 👍

With all the women available in the Phils, it would be easy to find a woman with no kids. I'm sorry but I don't need to drama of "You're not my Dad" while i'm retired trying to enjoy my life. I'm glad you're happy, but i'm not looking for an instant family when there are better options.

I have a question for you which is the following please: What if you can't open a bank account in the country you are in abroad e.g. (Philippines) to receive your money from your home country e.g. (Canada) account because you are a tourist ...how would I then get my money e.g. ($1000.00 U.S. or over) from my personal bank account back home in Canada to the Philippines then? Do I have more options other than TransferWise? Thank you.

Mike don’t you also have a pension? I have teamster pension from UPS plus Federal express pension as well as SS too. I live comfortably in Florida with a beautiful house and with pool and drive a New Tesla but not happy. My brother married a Pinay in 2014 living in Arizona with two beautiful daughters. Enjoy your videos! God bless you and Janet

I am not trying to be a smart ass but when you guy's vlog about the money you have to live on why does non of you include that you make a grand or so a month on you tube ? That adds a significant amount to you guys being able to move about , travel out of the country ,buying cars ,houses , etc.

So true. Some of these KZbinrs put on a good front and budgets they stick to like when they moved there. Look at Old Dog. He was just getting by on his $1800 a month SS check with no savings. He said he would never buy anything he couldn’t walk away from. Now he is looking at buying land with his wife. Somewhat hypocritical. Probably banks a few thousand a month. Why not be open about it

Hey Mike, you're not the only one sick of the Woke Culture, political infighting and anti law enforcement and hundreds of stupid things these people can think of in the U.S. I want to ask how you're visa being retired in the Philippines? Are you able to stay longer without having to renew every few months? Thanks.

On a tourist Visa you must keep extending every 2 to 6 months. And can stay in the Philippines up to 36 months

I can understand why you wanted to leave because of all the political nonsense. I am almost the same age as you and had to work all my life. Now you see all the handouts given by this administration rewarding people who don’t want to work. Don’t even get me started on all the illegals coming in and the burden on us living here.

So many of the most successful bloggers in the Philippines came to the country from America between 2015 and 2020. Which is weird, because America was finally GREAT AGAIN. We had the greatest president who has ever served in American history. God chose him to save America from woke. So why leave for the Philippines? 🤔
