OUR ANGELES CITY EXPENSES + A NEW BUDGET CONDO OPTION

[@aaronsoken2796]

Thanks for the great vid. Will do a test run to PI in October 2023. Was stationed at Clark in 1971-1975. I enjoy your rental vids. It gives me an idea where to stay. Thanks again!

[@angies.4961]

Mercy has the sweetest spirit about her!! Eric.. God sure did Bless you with a very lovely wife!!

[@k9companion231]

Why not do the SRRV? You save in the long run.

[@thomasodetinape4180]

Be mindful of your mini splits, if you suddenly start sneezing, it will be the issue. Also if you see a performance drop. They need constant cleaning both the inside and out. The roller fan gets dirty and the moldy smell will show up when you first turn them on. I had two if these put in my house and switched over to the new inverter window shakers. They are colder and less maintenance. Great video as always

[@bigjohnson7415]

Super nice apartment!

Angeles Electric recently raised their rates and is now incredibly expensive. I am paying 25% more than I did this time last year while using less electricity. I feel bad for Filipinos who are already struggling.

[@thomaspoore3615]

Electric is expensive in PI. I liveve in Florida with an 1800 sq ft house with swimming pool. A/C is on 24/7 however I keep it at 76. Still comfortable. The pool pump runs 5 to 6 hrs a day. My last electric bill was $183.00. My last grocery bill for 2 was over $300.00 And that's not for the month. Usually 500 or more per month. I used to eat out often, but with inflation have curtailed eating out.

[@ExpatNTraining]

👍🏻👍🏻’s up!

[@levitaearwood7750]

How about your water bill, cable and net at home

[@FarEastPapi]

included in my rent

[@linapina9163]

Hi just found your videos. ??? Wanted to see 2 bedroom apts for your videos. Planning to come next year with the husband on a Balikbayan visa.

[@johngrisham3703]

What is motorcycle insurance?

[@FarEastPapi]

Basically it comes with your registration when you renew. Around $10 maybe

[@giturdone1200]

Warner is definitely on my list OK he is who I'll contact when I come for sure love his rentals

[@bernadetteflower8911]

Hi Mercy and Eric! I love you guys,thanks for the information ❤️ 😘. Packing my box right now. I gave almost all the stuff I love here in Florida down to a suitcase and a carry on. Looking forward to meeting you guys and everyone 😀.

[@rocrobert783]

I noticed you did not mention the premium healthcare policy

[@Robmar40]

Your electricity is very high. Can you do a kwh cost? Here in Vegas we pay $.12 cents per kwh.

[@250sabre]

👍👍👍

[@jeffshaffar8060]

I'm sorry I meant 20k pesos at la grande condos, 400 usd

[@RayHaffenden]

If you can live without air-con, just fans the power bills are much lower. It took me 6 months to acclimatize and I was fine (arrived in May - start of rainy season, so it was quite easy).

[@bingtorres9238]

THANKS FOR SHARING YOUR BUDGET !

[@oneplusone686]

you didn't mention health insurance..

[@amylee6038]

I don't think people understand Hensonville is a protected area. If you have an apartment just outside Hensonville it is cheaper but no gate to keep the squatter girls from your husband.

[@bigjohnson7415]

🤣🤣🤣! Squatter girls!

[@smithy2734]

Wow, I wish the cost of leaving is cheap here in the USA. We make almost $9K a month and we still struggling to make ends meet. Gasoline price keeps going up so as grocery and everything else. Watching your vlog makes me think of moving to PI too. Thank you for sharing!

[@throneofgracechristiancent5762]

I really like you and your wife. I love your videos great info. I live in the Philippines planning to visit Angeles next month.Would love take you to lunch if you're free. I will notify you ahead of time of my visit keep up the great work Nathan.

[@aqaratenaaqarleban4724]

Thanks for updating expenses For my end exempted fm all BI fees. B.B visa soon will rcvd 13A visa. I guess our expenses a bit lower. Apx 1000 Dollars

[@edwardgriffin6042]

Just now seeing this. At the price you pay, I imagine you have a 1 yr. lease?

[@FarEastPapi]

No lease

[@billtyler4440]

My electric bill here in the states is 170 dollars here in the USA a month now. The temperature here in June in Knoxville 10ec has went up to. Take care my friends and as usual tell Mercy I said hello

[@sportysporty9212]

was so great video. I loved it . Very clear explanation of budget.

[@kevink1214]

thanks , lots of good info in this video. keep up the great work

[@jeffshaffar8060]

La Grande condos, nice condos 10k pesos a month, you might want to do a video on them, there in angeles city.

[@gringogg1780]

Nice video! I 100% agree with your budget as I live a few blocks from you.. Your electric bill is super high even with your A/C on 24/7.. I would hope nobody is tapping into your electric service and stealing it.. Maybe you can shut off your breakers and see if the meter is still moving? I love your recommendation for the mini air compressor for your scooter.. I ordered 2 yesterday... Really nice life you lead Sir...

[@FarEastPapi]

I'll check that meter today! Thanks neighbor!

[@mikefoodee7846]

Western style electric prices so not much of a shock. I was surprised on how much a visa costs. Comes to a bit over a dollar a day per person. I hear if you invest some money there the visa price is cheaper. I wonder if you can just park some money in an investment account at a bank and that would satisfy the requirements?

[@jefflay8515]

$20k and minimum age of 50 for SRRV. Much cheaper if your a veteran. $2-3k. After getting your srrv, its $10 a year. I hope that helps

[@charlesanderson6986]

Great video I love watching your videos

[@singaporedan1597]

good video here with good info

[@1417d]

Here in angeles you can only get 2 months you would have to go to manila to get 6 months

[@FarEastPapi]

[@iggi70]

[@kuyaedcooking]

Great video thnx for sharing

[@penntuckeybackwoods8201]

Great info I appreciate it

[@jimrichards160]

Very informative guy's thanks for that.

[@mindisparks7917]

So the apartments are fully furnished?

[@FarEastPapi]

Yes

[@bubbaskidds542]

How do you bank? Are there US banks over there?

[@FarEastPapi]

None that I know of except I do remember seeing a Wells Fargo in Manila a while back. My banks are stateside and just use the ATM.

[@Tcosby]

How does Werner own property there ? I thought you had to be native to own there ? Maybe I misunderstood on that one lol ! Glad you guys are back there safely ! Enjoy !! We just got back from a few weeks in Florida & did some house hunting ...holy cow we sure can't afford it there right now !

[@RayHaffenden]

A non-Filipino cannot own land there, although he/she can inherit it when Filipina/Filipino spouse dies. Otherwise if he/she has a registered Corporation (can only own 49% or shares). However you can own an apartment/condominium leasehold.

[@gangstagummybear3432]

The power grid in that country is probably insane, it has to be partitioned for thousands of islands, separated by water

[@santiagoabad3938]

Wow ur total is my Rent every month here in California. I’m also retired thinking about going back to my hometown Davao.

[@madmob1001]

Great info I guess I’ll be moving to the Philippines my mortgage here in San Francisco is 4000+ I guess I can live like a king with just my mortgage expense LOL planning to go to Vietnam Soon hopefully if everything changes

[@lynngatlin4469]

That's not bad actually everything has gone up so much that's not bad. We fixing to crash here gas electric an food is four times higher than two or three years ago. Not bad price actually.

[@leothelion4952]

can i live there on 7 hundred dolors a month?

[@FarEastPapi]

Maybe. Probably not gonna be much fun though

[@rocrobert783]

A good Premium healthcare policy will cost at 700 you may as well stay home

[@leothelion4952]

@@rocrobert783 i have Federal Health Insurance , just will have to get reimberesed for any work done.

[@mr.randolph5582]

Hey there you guys, That 2nd place sure looked like King Marcoses place, Lol After seeing your cost analysis it appeared to me that you were spot on with the rent portion as well as the other expenditures. The last video when you showed those apartments high in the sky was very expensive to me. It would be nice to know how you 2 got to the Philippines and why and what you use to do and where you grew up. It's really none of my business, but it sure would make a person think to the point that one could say "Hey I could do that" they're just like me. Maybe you already have done so and if you have ? My apologies. Thanks again for all you work. Thank you and GOD Bless.🙂

[@mikefoodee7846]

Their earlier videos near the beginning showed all of that. Very interesting story. Check out their channel.

[@gramheald1]

Loved Marcos cooking there. Why did the two of you decide to travel and at what age? I am on track for 60-62 range. I did watch your first video

[@thomasodetinape4180]

Leaving the us is easy.

[@pasisurakka]

you guys consider 18k rent as budget??? You are crazy, and i hope people looking dont trust theese fools... You can rent HOUSES for less than half that price!!!

[@FarEastPapi]

I did mention that I believe. Thanks for watching our videos

[@aqaratenaaqarleban4724]
