I'm 54 and my wife and I are VERY worried about our future, gas and food prices rising daily. We have had our savings dwindle with the cost of living into the stratosphere, and we are finding it impossible to replace them. We can get by, but can't seem to get ahead. My condolences to anyone retiring in this crisis, 30 years nonstop just for a crooked system to take all you worked for..

A thousand U.S. dollars for a rental place anywhere in the Philippines is, nothing to brag about, way too much money! That's more like a house payment here in America.

Do you realize I was blinded in front the police station in Angeles City while a gang of Filipinos attacked me with rocks and GI pipes. This was because my ex-wife flipped them off because they were verbally harassing her saying in the local dialect that she was too ugly to be with me. And now you are here fighting with me for telling guys that not everything is rosy in the Philippines. I had another foreigner with 4.5 years in the experience agree with me in the comments on another video. You should read all my comments under other comments to get a full understanding.

1st time to view your channel. Nice vid of your house and location by the water. I love the healthy brown color of your wife. Excellent! Will be checking out more of your vids. Hang in there a stay safe. Bad wx heading toward Guiuan E Samar. Hopefully not to you. All the best! 🙏🏾

I always wonder why people compare the prices in the Philippines to California, Canada, UK, etc. The current prices are no surprise.

You're place now is very beautiful...so cozy, and peaceful...I love it..even your home now is very beautiful...I love it... looking forward to have a vacation right there in Cebu, same where you living now...I really love it... thank you for sharing

Wow! In Argao your paying that much? Very surprise that's a ways away from Metro Cebu, that's more like out in the suburban seaside Malboal area, very quite place. I would ask for $700 tops.

[@maryarlj_nes1244]

True. Too expensive. It's a city's price range.

I was hanging out in Argao in 2004.

Great video Eric and Aeriel! I have bunches of questions as we are considering retiring in the Philippines. Did you buy a health care plan? If so, which one and what was the cost? I would also like to hear your story. What took you to the Philippines? What do you do for a living? Etc... Cheers and Happy New Year!

[@asianspec]

If you have severe health problems and coming from the US, you shouldn't fully move to the Philippines. Most hospitals in remote areas like cebu aren't fully equipped that normal hospitals would have in the US. Most filipinos who worked in the US but returned to the Philippines are 50/50 going back n forth just to keep up with their health.

[@kenrice]

@@Anonymint-vj7bt . I have lived more than half of my adult life in the Philippines, spanning 42 plus years since Year 1980. My Filipina wife and I are snowbirds for 15 plus years and divide our time between homes in the USA and the Philippines. While in the Philippines I have received world class healthcare at some of the finest hospitals in southeast Asia in Metro Manila. My experiences are much different than other individuals who have posted. I have known many western expats over the past 20 years who have received superior healthcare at a fracture of the cost of their home country.

[@kenrice]

@@asianspec I definitely agree if living in a rural area. Living in the city is a different situation, only if you have very good expat health coverage and the resources to properly care for self in case of emergency. There are some very good hospitals in Metro Manila. Over a 20 year period I know of many western expats who have received world class healthcare in Manila.

[@kenrice]

@@Anonymint-vj7bt You have a kind and generous heart. I wish there were more caring expats out there. I agree with you. There is no comparision when you match the healthcare options of the Philippines with the USA or other first world country. Even in the USA it is a common practice to select one hospital over another because particular hospital is well known for specialized care.

[@kenrice]

@@Anonymint-vj7bt Please take the time to carefully read my posting. I mentioned in my previous posting I have lived in the Philippines kore than half of my adult life, spanning 42 years since Year 1980. I do not visit the Philippines. My Filipina wife and I have two homes. Our house in Eastern Samar and condo in Ermita Manila. Please do not make assumptions regarding my experiences. I have lived in the Philippines long before you were born and have been hospitalized in the Philippines numerous times over the past twenty years. I have actual experiences. I was hospitalized (Dec 27, 2013 to February 10 2014) at Manila Doctors for 7 full weeks (49 days) with a rare auto immune disorder - Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS), I was paralyze from the chest down, unable to care for self and wore adult diapers for six full weeks until I was able to get out of bed on my own to use the CR. I was in ICU for more than a week, unable to breath without a ventilator and close monitoring. I was very close to meeting my maker. The very professional and skilled doctors at Manila Doctors Hospital saved my life. While I was in the hospital, a close friend/neighbor suffered a heart attack and had quadruple bypass at the same hospital. His hospital room was right next to mine for three days. I am retired US military and also a disabled veteran. When I was active duty I suffered catastrophic life threatening injuries and massive head trauma, resulting in a traumatic brain injury. Because of my disabilities, and long time residency here in the Philippines I have more experience than most people I have met. Your comments regarding Filipino doctors being lazy and not staying abreast of recent research and development is unfair. Maybe these are your experiences, but I know many western expats who have received excellent critical healthcare from the various hospitals in Metro Manila including myself. There are good and bad hospitals everywhere in the world and not limited to the Philippines. While I was in the USA I suffer plantar fasciitis (PF) and was treated for more than a year at a local hospital in Oregon. Ortho doctors were unable to fix my PF. When my wife and I made our annual snowbird trip to the Philippines and we stayed in our Manila condo. I was treated at Makati Med by skilled othopedic doctor. Two months later my PF went away without surgery. Filipino doctors treated my PF, where stateside doctors failed.

[@sebastianniqvist3144]

Pretty home but I think you are paying the foreigner rate. You are comparing it to Seattle so of course it would be cheaper than any US city and that’s the mistake foreigners make: compare to prices back home and then you end up paying what you think is cheap. But you could get a way better deal. However the house is pretty and the sitting area in the garden is awesome for some night gatherings and enjoy some wine.

Lived in Cebu for the first 3 years of my 20 in the Philippines. Hot, dirty, dangerous and expensive. Just a short trip to Dumaguete, the ocean is actually clear there. Davao is actually cheaper while still offering services. Surigao may be streets from the 18th century, but you don't have to go far south to see some of the most beautiful scenery in the Philippines. (Kitcharao, NICE). City housing is to shorten the trip to work. If you do not work, it is senseless to live in the city.
