Thanks for watching
Great vid as usual bro. Thanks again
Peace my brother, great job! Dr, Marco blessings!
Nice video....i am retired and have lived in Medellin/Envigado near La Frontera for the last 2 years originally from New York City. You are right about everything you say. i stayed longer than a year so i got a Colombia ID card called a Cedulla as most vendors like to see an i.d. when you use a credit card. Even the gyms are cheaper...hope to see you around.
Great great video my brother 🤙🏿💪🏿👍🏿👍🏿 thank you
I've been on the streets for almost 3 years at La 70 right where you said. It's amazing I haven't seen you around.
Thanks for the good info.. The food looks amazing. Thats reasonable. Chow
Buen vídeo amigo me alegra que te sientas bien en la ciudad, bendiciones.
Thanks dog this very helpful
Great Video!
Thanks dude!
Great information. Thanks. You can find unfurnished 3 bedroom 2 bath in Estrada 4 neighborhoods. Getting $5 hr not bad. You get to be around locals enter act. That $400 to $500 is for part time work. Not full time. It will pay for an apartment in Belén Sabaneta etc.
great information
Great video
Great vid dog, how long you planing on staying out in Colombia for?
That's a lot of money/moth
You can easily live with 500us even less and not necessarily the hoods, just need to look cheaper neighborhoods like some parts of belen, bello, even envigado or la Estella
Hope u guys find this helpful
Regards
Yes I am thinking about visiting thank you.
Really informative channel man. What do you do in Columbia if you don’t mind me asking?
Colombia***
Thanks for the upload brother. Question, how do you make your money, the $1000/mo.? What is your job? From what you said earlier, the English teaching job won't do it. I'm genuinely interested, thank you again bro.
I am a retired pensioner who has lived in Medellin long enough to give you my “two cents”. I think your estimated costs are about right. I spend more on food, but I like to eat out and I am willing to spend more. I allow $300 for entertainment, but even with my higher costs, I only spend a little more than $1000 a month. I live in southern Envigado, so my housing costs are cheaper (AirBNB) than in Laureles. But considering even my higher costs, this city is a wonderful bargain.
Am I correct that you mean a tourist visa is granted for US citizens upon arrival? You didn't state whichc passport...
Do you have a list of the Facebook groups? I'm wanting to move for at least a year this year!
How did you find that place that is so cheap for a furnished place
I lived in Medellin for 4 months. 1000$ a month! You can live like a king.
Nice i want to go for 5 months - about £800 living cost without rent/transport etc
How about 4000 thousand a month?
That's a lot hernan, even for Bogota.
not really. if you like living like a peasant lol
Harun, which city did you stay in, and which strata? Did you stay in El poblado?
Update video with new prices please
How do you get the year visa? You didn't really explain that well. Something about $1,000 and learning Spanish at the University or some shit. I already know Spanish though.
What up, hey good breakdown on the cost of living, thanks. 1 question: is the Smog noticeable in Laurelles, do you have a hard time breathing?
Joshi Lemus what? NO there’s no smog problem
As soon as I left the airport in Medellin I could smell the pollution . It's bad but you get accumalated to it in day and you dont even notice anymore
@@PassportDog theres most definitely a 100 % smog issue in Medellin which usually takes place a few times a year....they have a law in place where certain cars can only be on the road on certain days depending on their vin #. and also schools shut down when the air quality becomes too unhealthy... you should know your facts before you speak on things, especially being a "youtuber" . dont mislead the people, please.
@@PassportDog know your fact before you speak on them. theres most definetely a smog proplem in medellin..dont mislead the people
Hey kenny can you make a video on teaching English? I was wondering where can we find a job teaching English,is it either at a university or independent teaching centers? Would you recommend having a telf certificate or bachelors degree?
Go online there are contracts given to teach overseas just have to apply
I noticed you have braces.. How is the dental care down there?
I went on the website to look for a place to rent but it’s all in Spanish and my Spanish isn’t very good yet. How can I work around this language barrier
XtremeLifeWithDarius Change the language of you use Google chrom
You mentioned cleaning lady @ $200 a month ? Am I right ? How often she comes ? Also your apartment in Laureles, is that a furnished one? Thanks, I’m just getting some insight for future retirement reference.
It's 300 a month and she comes once a week. $600 you can get your own place yes it was furnished.
The school way are you going through American school or colombia

These are the same room prices and apartment prices I pay in every ghetto ive lived in across the USA. Why would I go to Columbia for that?
And I get 200 dollars in free stamps
He’s living in the second biggest city in the country AND overpaying 🤣🥴
....is medicine over- the- counter...without a prescription...???...like basic blood pressure...etc..etc...antibiotics....It is in Thailand
Lonnie Christopher a bit late but yes, for most medicines you won’t need prescription, you can just go to a drugstore and buy them
It's like that in nearly all of latin america

WELCOME TO BARRIO ANTIOQUIA!!!!!
Yo can I come thru and stay with you a week or two
word my nigga
you can live with half of that easily
Can you explain?
Yes but you’ll be in the hood
if he's talking about the $650 then yes, for half you will be a ghetto OR some area pretty far from downtown but cheaper and safer.
Yes in the hood estrato 2 or 3 where if you accidentally flash your cell phone you will have a gun jammed down your throat within 5 minutes.
@@mlconnors6117 Miko ain't get that treatment
Are other cities cheaper to live than Medellin?
How much cheaper can a beautiful city with beautiful women get?
I believe Bogota and Medellin are two of the most expensive cities in Colombia
The hell is happening to that dog?
Didn't you read the name of his channel? Is his passport that's barking
Beef stick. Very cheap.
Dario Trujillo and the Corny af award goes to...
😆😆😆😆🐶
Where is the best places to stay?
Poblado and Laureles.
As a tourist or foreign person, if you want the absolute luxury, more english speakers, and don't mind paying extra, El Poblado is the default. Only issue is things tend to be pricey in general cause they know people there are spending dollars and not pesos. The smarter choice, specially if you speak spanish, want to be smarter about budgets, and want the added benefit of being closer to everything, is Laureles. Still a upper class area, but more geared towards residents instead of visitors, and in a much more central location then El Poblado. There's still other great choices if you want to be less run of the mill and have more options, like many areas of Envigado are upper class and safe, and thats the next neighborhood just south of El Poblado.
Poblado and Laureles. I go there all the time. I love Poblado.
I was getting by on 500usd month
Adrian Manzano-Where in Colombia were you? Did you have your own apartment? Were you eating 3 meals a day? Did you have internet and also health insurance? Did you have a social life? Did you work while there? Last question: do they have chemtrails in Colombia?
murdoch1717 damn mr. investigator
@PhyZeik Thanks for the reply and glad to hear that.
@@murdoch1717 But lot of ET walking down the streets with short and flippers.
Where at? Trying get place
$850 living cost per month is good bro for a solo traveller? this is without rent of course
that's enough even adding the rent, ideally 1000$ more than necessary!
$1000 living cost about $30 a day?
Con $1000 dolares vives con 3 en puerto rico y tienes todos los beneficios de hospitales gratis además no tienes el miedo ese que ataquen las guerrillas , eso allá esta carisimo si es como dice este varón en este video
does the cleaning lady come with the apartment?what if you don't want a cleaning lady?
you can just deny the services
You can make 1.2 Million 1:18 wait what!!! Lol
you alright bro ?
How it is in 2024? This video is old
Coming soon... curious - how much for a haircut?
Antonio Sporting $5 or go to the Santa Fe mall for the best haircut of your life massage and all for 25$
2 dollars
4 or 5 bucks USD. Highest i paid with a shape up and shave was 10 bucks, but i hadn't shopped around.
Santafe massage includes happy ending?
I from Colombia and this brother is correct. In Colombia the food is SUPER CHEAP. Colombians love Americans people. Thanks for your stay in my country my brother.
That boy on that coke
man I spend $150 a week here in Toronto, Canada. I'll rent out my condo in the future and live in Colombia.
Your overpaying for everything. Go to local places for cheaper food and talk to local to cheaper rent.
Where in the hell you all getting money? I don't work for a week here in Chicago I am about to get evicted. Too young to retire
Selling his dirty ass to Colombian trans.
By night isn't dangerous to walk away? I mind, has no pickpocket, street thieves?
there are of course, that is always a latent problem. Be simple and don't fight if they try to rob you. Pickpocket yes, but not everybody everywhere, sometimes
As long as you stay out of the low income areas higher up on the hills looking like a tourist (Los Barrios Populares), and out of the downtown area, theres very little worry about safety. The reason the downtown area which they actually refer to as the center (El Centro) you need to be careful at night, is that it becomes very desolate after the end of the business day. As long as you're alert you should have no problems at all.
@@chrisbetancur453 Chris Betancur well, actually places like laureles AND poblado are the most dangerous areas cause ppl from the "barrios populares" go there to rob them.. so take care at nights specially in Laureles
what about girls?
Crowmy Alexandre Checkout my other videos
That bedroom tho? Prison cell
A mansion compared to the average room in NY
tu hablar espanol or what??
😘
Just to clarify, your paying $300 for your apartment? That's amazing!
Peter Wu yep 👍🏾
Son 10 mil pesos hahahahahqhqhq buena man
$650 for an apartment is a rip-off in medellin. I know people that are Colombian that live in the states and that also go over there $1,000 a month American you can do a lot $650 a month for an apartment you being robbed.
Prostitution fees included or that is extra!?😱
rthelionheart I called them paid lovers

Find a girl and live with her. Single mother capital of the world. If you want to be a insta daddy ;-) lol just have fun family
hahahahahaha FUCKKKK THAT
sam Why not, its not bad to find someone that can help you immerse yourself in the culture with and learn the language with. Try it ;-)
@@superkb172 have you done this? Her ex isn't going to like this.
John G Done what? Have a girl help me learn the language and culture? If so yes, I have and continue to do so.
superkb172 why disrespect yourself with a single mother? Just find a single women with no baggage and some self respect
You dont mention the racism . they wont donit outright but you a little too dark for some areas of medellin
if he's american, then he's already used to racism at home. i didnt find colombia worse than anywhere else. colombia has 5 million blk ppl, though mostly on the coasts, so we're not a spectacle like in some countries.
