Please watch the video before commenting. Salamat.
First of all the Philippines is the 2nd largest country in the world consisting of 7,300 tropical Islands, there are higher altitudes and lower altitudes and the climate is not the same all over the Philippines ! If your a cowboy at heart then the Philippines is perfect, but if you expect creature comforts then Thailand is the place for you!

I've been here over a year now and am generally satisfied. However, I agree with all this gentleman says. The philippines is not for everyone. I strongly agree with his recommendation you first make an exploratory visit. I think for a month or two if you can.
Thank you my friend 🤝
I’m 5’10” medium build and I was maxed out on all the sizes. It’s surprising how sparse expat numbers can be even in BGC. Watching all the vloggers you’d think they’re everywhere but they can be few and far between.
Damn. I’m about the same as you and I just barely fit. Lol
I’ve been here full time 4 months now after being back and forth from the US for 9 years and you are spot on with these 7 points !
Thank you my brother 🤝
Having lived in Thailand, what I miss from the west is milk & cheese, however there is a language barrier, I found girls are not clingy, you need to initiate first
Nice
1000$ a month is very doable . Ive also looked in to Malaysia Kuala Lumpar its also 1K a month which is 1000$ a month also . Philipines is nice to visit and travel to as well. I think alot of people are going to be expats in the future .
Yup it is technically
Cambodia is amazing on $1000/mo. when your over 55 and have that every month coming in. > Siem Reap in particular & 50 cent beer !
The only people that say the Philippines is the greatest thing next to slice bread, our people that never traveled.
I love it. But I must tell the truth about a few things
Lol
I highly recommend guy's visit the Philippines before deciding to move permanently also do lot's of research read and watch as many videos on the country as you can find.
I also want to point out being on a 2 or 3 week vacation and living permanently in a developing country is different.
So true
🎯
Hello Jasper. I will be in BGC 1/12-1/21 taking a short scouting trip to see how things are in Manila. This will be my 4th time visiting, mainly Visayas region with past visits. If you have time, we should get together and meet. I'll be with my filipina, so maybe we can all meet so she will have someone to chat with too.
Ok
Great information thank you
You’re welcome
I had enough of u.s. here...almost 60 ... I don't look 60 and don''t feel it either..handful think i'm in mid 30's..... i'm going to retire there, I can adapt easily, born there myself in Angeles City.. build a tinyhome like Zen so i just need few pillows just to sit on the floor.. lol 😂jk.. a minimalist I will be.... with solar panel grid and small tank of water ...maybe small business extra income like 4 to 6 apartment to rent. .. not going to live in the cities. too cold here.. too much gun shooting on daily basis .. adults and children being killed and i'm in Minnesota!.. not the same 4 decades ago like Little house on the Prairie!
Nice!!!
@@VittoShulman He's a Filipino American...lol he know how the Philippines work...
Lol
Hey Jasper,
What mobile service do you use to get text messages from your U.S. banks for verification?
Mint
Not much critical thinking going on there in the Philippines.
Ok
The pen and paper signed in triplicate to use the hotel pool in Makati and alot of places is absurd. One for the doorman at admin, one for the guard at the pool area and one fof me😂
Lol
I feel you
Sounds like Colombia 🇨🇴 with out the Humidity
Yup
Don't compare Colombia, It is also a Third World Country, Colombia is worse!!
I love the Philippines, but yes, you need to be in decent health to live a long and happy life over there.
Facts
Good Stuff!
Salamat
The humidity just scratched the country off the list.
I think 2o Celsius
It’s fine for me. But ok
Do a true discovery so your recommend coming during the best or worst months of heat and events or festivals. I after November is the best.
I would say anytime to be honest.
how is the air quality? I have minor asthma
oh and when you say 2000 dollars a month for a condo your not talking about nyc condo where its the size of my room? lol
I said 2000 total monthly budget to live. Not a condo
City air quality is not good
@@JasperinthePhilippines oh ok my bad
I mean it’s bearable but I cannot tell a lie
Customer service and milk 🥛 I have patience, but after visiting the Philippines I realize that the only thing a person can do is wait. I was not aware of the difference with moo juice. 🐮
Ha ha
Jasper, Discovered your channel via Regular Guys latest livestream last night. Glad I did!
Now in the process of catching up on your videos and doubt my comments and questions will receive much attention therein the respective comment sections. So here’s a quick one: Who are the hostesses in Boracai you mentioned? Bar girls? Hotel front desk? I honestly am not familiar with that term in a Philippines context. Thanks and Happy New Year!
Hey great! A hostess is just like in western countries. The women that stand in front of the restos greeting and bring in customers.
Happy new year. Please check out my catalog of vids.
@@JasperinthePhilippines wow. Thanks for fast response! Yeah, I’m enjoying them and learning a good deal as well. I appreciate your frank style. I need real information from guys that keep it real ✌
Thanks Trevor. I try to keep it real! 🎯🫡
@@TrevorMelbourne-ef1ina lot of ma boiz earlier vidz also have some good nuggets in there too!
Regarding the milk. I bought refrigerated president milk, the french brand, at rustans last month. Or marketplace or whatever it is called nowadays. the one in greenbelt 1. 250 pesos. only to figure out is the same crap with an expiry date that my future grand children are still able to drink it. Even the premium brand of that shit costs less than 2 euro in holland.
Damn bro
Thanks for the heads up.
@@JasperinthePhilippines i'm still angry
You can buy evaporated milk and powdered milk there
I noticed I couldn’t find a half decent cup of coffee anywhere cheap, most is instant coffee with coffee mate
Starbucks is there but just as expensive as the USA
My matcha drink is 4$ instead of 7. I disagree
HAPPY NEW YEAR JASPER AND ALL THE OG' GUYSESS...
Ayyyye happy new year boss
Is the wifi good over there? I’m thinking about bringing my gaming PC😂
Lol
What area
@@JasperinthePhilippines I haven’t decided yet but I was thinking the same city as you
Manila has great WiFi 👍
Thanks for the heads up. I get cranky when sweaty. Plus I’m 58 and have a bad back
Ha ha
Ha ha
Come check it out
Most foreigners don't make it there more than 5 years. Its a fact
Ok
My insurance works in Manila.
Nice
Cranky and Old ... do they really go together. I have found younger men (20-35) to have less patience. However, us judgmental humans will stereotype 😂
Lol
Try finding a pair of flip flops in size 12, impossible
Facts
DO NOT RETIRE IN THE PHILIPPINES if you don't like a beautiful country, beautiful women, not expensive, and a freedom-loving nation . IF YOU DON'T LIKE US, GET OUT OF OUR COUNTRY, FOR WE DON'T WANT OUR COUNTRY.
Watch the video genius. CLEARLY YOU DIDNT 😂
What about finding a wife,and bringing her back to the U.S.
I don’t suggest it. Check my video catalog.
@@JasperinthePhilippinesJust for vacation only
How long are you going to stay there.
@@strothermartin5368Filipinas passports don’t give them access to the USA for a vaca
@@strothermartin5368day by day. But happy so far.
I agree most points . been here 1.4 years now and ..rub in a SCAM relate a lot even with the brother + sister advised my 63 yo GF (we both are same age) told here DO NOT Be in a rush. Hospitals and cost get repaid is a nightmare. REPAYING even when they have to TAKES months. The people are friendly and helpful, but services sucks . Bureaucratic system here that i even not seen in the previous USSR !!. BEEN here is complete different from been here 2 months - 10 years long. I'm in the process to return where i came from a shithole as well Belgium/Europe.
Ok
Sorry to hear
