I don’t like Malaysia because of the Muslim influence. From doing loud chants over loud speakers at 6 am to the food restrictions, high alcohol taxes and women not being treated equally.
Malaysia is not for everyone I would find it hard to live in Malaysia
Have you been to Malaysia? The Infrastructure is great, the value for money can’t be beat, the food is terrific and most importantly the people are very friendly.
@@paulz6491 yes I have. My experience everything was geared towards Muslim traditions . From fake ham and sausage if you wanted the real stuff it was overpriced if you could find it. Another thing I didn’t like a rude man that didn’t care about his neighbors would do loud chants over the a loudspeaker at 5 am. Another thing I didn’t like women weren’t considered equals in the workforce from housekeepers to wait staff were all men. I think the only jobs I saw women doing was cooking and laundry.
@@vgshwk Quite possibly the first person I have ever heard speak so negativity about Malaysia. Much, much different from my and tons of others' experiences.
@@KrayPurn like I said I have said I stayed at a hotel for a week. The hotel was there first and then Muslims turned a normal house into a mosque. They put a loudspeaker right behind my room. Every day this rude inconsiderate man would do loud chants at 6 am.
Hey Mike thanks for having me on 👍👍
Watch out dude there’s a guy named Mark that’s gonna be hunting you down for an interview
No problem 👍It was fun Aaron
Great interview good advice from you both
@@nevergiveup-db6fp You must have a crystal ball. It’s already posted on YT
@aaronaround Hey Aaron it was a nice interview, good to get the view of a younger guy sometimes
Hello everyone since no one's out here yet.. Phillipine peso exchange today with U.S. dollar hit p57. 5:00 pm. Up on the month p55.6 not bad for a month.
got to love it Charles
Enjoy your life. Great interview mike
Thanks James
Thanks Mike very informative chat on a wide range of topics.
Glad it was helpful!
Great interview Mike,the young bloke bought out a different side of you. Was good to see 👍
hahaha. what side. I hope it was for the better
Thanks 👍
Yes mate, was really good, very laid back and a pleasure to watch
Great interview Mike. Your channel is so good and informative and real.
I appreciate that!
Good interview Mike. Thanks. Rudy G. Texas.
Glad you enjoyed it
You do good interviews Prof. And he is really on the ball with the inefficiencies. You dont need to have a business degree to notice it.
Hey thanks for the comment Eric. How have you been?
@@mikesphilippineretirement Doing fine. A lot of traveling. Got the Taxes out of the way. I chat with Pea from time to time. She is a trip. LOL. Otherwise I keep track on you two on your posts. Going to watch the NFL Draft?
Mike, interesting interview
thank you LLL
Well I am in Sagada at the moment having arrived in Davao and travelled over to Dipolog, ferry to Dumagette, then to Oslob swimming with Whale Sharks then all the way up to Banting Island, back to Cebu and ferry to Manila. Bus to Subic to revisit old grounds of 14 years ago. How it has all changed, few foreigners and domain of the rising middle class Philipino families. Glad to get out of that place and up to Baguio by far the best place so far. The prices in the Philippines have risen to a point it is not any cheaper than to tour Australia. Food choices are poor in general and especially bad outside the major cities. Think this will be my last trip to the Philippines and look at Vietnam for future journeys.
The most miserable aspect of travelling the Philippines is the traffic congestion choking all the roads and cities, and it is the same everywhere no matter what place you visit. Even Sagada the roads are too narrow for the large busses and trucks. They are doing a lot of work to improve the roads but when and if they finish they will still be inadequate.
Thanks for sharing Boris
Medical Amy be cheap in the Philippines but so is the quality.
Hi, 31 here and mostly in Cebu. I also have trouble with food here. Not in terms of flavor or it being too bland but i do get stomach issues and if i cant fix it i wont be able to live here forever haha
I guess if you are not drinking and chasing girls, then $1k a month is possible. I retired early and came to Philippines at age 39. Back then my budget was $1500 and I could party everyday with that amount. But today that would be like $4k with inflation. At 32 and no pension, he probably won't be in the Philippines very long. Lots of younger guys have had to go back for work because of inflation.
4 grand,seriously!
I do not drink or chase girls and need more than 1k to live
@@user-rd2em4zw1s Inflation is generally 10 percent or more in the Philippines . $1500 back in 08 is $4k today give or take . Have you seen the prices? Guys earning under $2500 a month are penny pinching everyday .
Great interview Mike ! I envy this young guy. I was tied down with a mortgage and 2 children at his age. Smart young man.
He is doing ok
WOW, tied down with 2 kids smh
Congratulations Mike looks like you’re doing good on your channel. Hitting it pretty hard. This guy is pretty interesting.
Thanks 👍
HI MIKE , He seems like a clean cut young man.
Can you imagine when we were 32 . to think about traveling?
I wish him GOOD LUCK , GOOD HEALTH and safe travels.
TY MIKE
GOD BLESS CIAO
32 i was busy doing nothing. Hahaha
@@mikesphilippineretirement lol I was married with a full time job AND started building houses to sele
Im a retired expat from the US living in Thailand six years.
In the US i was married to a Filapina for 44 years. She passed away in 2017.
During all that time she never wanted to visit the Philippines.
But we visited Thailand numerous times. She loved it there.
Thank you for sharing
I'm trying to save up to get back there in September. Me and my girl has been together for a little over a year now. I just started a CZcams channel a few days ago, but it is police content.
I remember when i was in the Philippines first time at age 33
how old are you now?
Stiff Banana 😮
32 for me.
Smart young guy not making a fool of himself following women in they mall These old fools could learn a lot from him
who is an old fool
Not sure about the smart part,ie crypto!
I just saw Aaron on every Man has a story.. I guess Aaron is making the rounds and I love listening to him.. I have already subscribed to his channel and I'm looking forward to watching his adventures..thanks Mike but I really miss the rental videos..😮😊..ps.. I swore to myself I would never have a CZcams channel because I am too thin skinned and I like my privacy too much.. I think I'm changing my mind because I am going to experiment with a channel that just does rental videos and food costs and not monetize it.. I will do the channel for people like me that has questions in their minds that no one is answering.. I will also have a nice used air conditioned Honda Civic hatchback or Toyota Corolla hatchback.. people thinking about moving to the Philippines or anywhere else are always interested in where they can stay for a reasonable price and are also interested in the price of food in the restaurants and the markets and the prices everything else that has to do with everyday living.. I think I'm going to do a CZcams channel and ask the questions and show the things that I always want other people to ask and show.. I am definitely going up into the mountains of sibulan and Valencia show everyone what is for rent and sale and what is up there and how far it is from everything else.. I will spend many nights and carry my huge thermometer with me and show how cool or how not cool it is day and night... it is cooler in the mountains of sibulan than it is in Valencia and lots of people do not know this.. and the best thing is that you are 20 or 30 minutes from a beautiful Beach with white sand and crystal clear blue water.. just a thought from my pea brain for today😮😮
really !!!
A very interesting, uncommon type of interview, Mike 👍 I was too busy trying to survive in the “sandbox” at his age. When I returned from Saudi (1991) I said I’d never leave the U.S. again! 😂🤣
Now look at what I’m doing? 🇵🇭🌴❤️
Wow! $1K a month must be pretty tight. Great interview Mike!
living like the locals almost
Thanks Gary
Malaysia is amazing compared to PI. People were very welcoming and friendly as well. For me, a big attribute to dating a Malaysian woman is their passport is similar to ours in terms of where they can go. Beautiful country as well. For me the PI dating and friendliness of people are unmatched.
No insurance? Well, what if you're having a traffic accident? Instant care to save your life? That could be 1 million in 2 weeks buddy! There's stories out there about that. Don't travel without insurance.
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
USD 1000 pcm is nowhere enough to live a decent life in the Philippines. Having said that, if you are a young man and prepared to rough it, go ahead and enjoy the experience. I left the UK when I was 25 and spent 6+ years travelling around the world and then established a successful business in HK where I met my wife. I retired at 52, six years ago. I now live in the Philippines where my family is very comfortable. We have property, no mortgages or loans as well as a business and a decent income. My point, much belaboured as it is, is that you don't have to join the rat-race, school, college, job, etc., to enjoy your life. I settled at 31, worked for 20 years, and then gave it all up in order to enjoy my life. I still take a month off every now and then to go travelling on my own - hiking usually - to places I have not visited before.
xpats live in philippines today most live off benefits they earn outside of philippines it trickey to make money philippines even if you have money. U tube a american company some do well with that it become a full time business
@@garrylafferty100 My income is derived entirely from within the Philippines. That income is enough for my family to live on comfortably. We did, however, bring capital to the Philippines. That allowed us to buy property, but the lump-sum remains untouched in a relatively high interest account. "Most young people' should get off their butts and put in the hours to give themselves sufficient cash/savings/income if they wish to survive here.
Oh shit,another english teacher and crypto king,good luck buddy!
Thanks for the view
With more and more people being digital nomads, these young guys are what we oldies will be up against in about a decade. Right now young woman may still go for older men but with many women getting higher education in the Philippines too, that attitude might change in a relatively short timespan. They may consider these younger guys a better investment in their future as they do not die on them after 10 or 15 years of marriage.
we will see.
Hmmm. Not sure of point of this YT. When I was 32 I was bullet proof and fit as.... Not even close to needing an6yhting medical
Even now, at 67, not a regular visit beyond 6 month blood test. So what is point of questions about "health care"??????
So honestly, again, your point????????
Mike, your older, and clearly from some vidoes you are suffering "memory skips". Suggest you really get isnurance instead of self insuring as it means you are more reluctant to get help.
what video
@@mikesphilippineretirement lol. Did you not just have video with 32 yo that included health care????
My nephew is 31 and was in a car accident in Thailand and fortunately he had insurance. When you’re young insurance is cheap and its a no brainer.
Here from our fb chat
I see. Thank you
I can relate to this young man quite well. He has more of a - '''frugal spirit''' - obviously - than you do Mike !!! (and I'm 74) - - - You seem to be more - 'extravagant minded' ? (apparently) - - - He's enjoying his life on $1000 / mo. - much like Dan on Vagabond Awake & he even has a girl friend on that kind of $ while "slow traveling" the world ?!??!? -- They know how to be thrifty and enjoy themselves as well ?!? 🤔
I enjoy my life. And they enjoy the life they have
People moving to philippines for cost of living or a girl that it for me nothing to do with condlition of america wife dont like high tax insurance you dont pay near as much philippines
You still have to pay your taxes in the US even if you live in the Philippines
I enjoy my comfort too much to live on $1,000. I’m budgeting $3,300 a month. If needed, I can afford much more.
Unless you're expecting/ looking to have multiple workers and a large home inside thr city $2000 will be more than adequate
Hey Mike isn't youth wonderful??!!
yes it is. Wish Aaron the best
Epstein Island, AKA Dumaguete seems to attacks kanos like June Bugs to a porch light in the summertime.
The U.S. is not the richest country in the world.
Who is the riches america has the most billionsires
what country has the freedom to make what you earn with no limits
THIS CHANNEL EVERY MAN HAS A STORY 2.0 ALSO GIO,OLD DOG PAUL, MARK THORNTON ALL STAYING STAGNANT IN THEIR CONDOS AND OR COFFEE SHOPS DOING INTERVIEWS. WHY NOT JUST STAY BACK IN AMERICA AND PRETEND YOURE IN THE PHILLY WILLY DOING INTETVIEWS❤
The US is not the richest country in the world? I don’t know which country is but I guarantee it is the country with the least amount of debt. The US is living like it’s rich off the credit card, but the credit card is $35 trillion beyond max and the credit card company is asking for money. We are the most in debt, most broke country in the world and we are all about to feel the effects
Thanks Jeffy
The U.S. may have the most rich people living there than any other country , that debt is the Federal Government which of course is payed by its citizens. But i do not believe it takes away from the bottom line of the rich people ,
