Your day is coming Mr punk if you live that long which I doubt it.. you would never make it in old age because getting old ain't for pussies like you 😮😢😂
Mike you have such a casual demeanor listening to you is like have a conversation with an old friend. You've given me so much useful information. I plan to retire and move to the Philippines next year and that adventure will be more successful because of your advice. So thanks friend.
One thing i can tell you older guys out here. I'm 67yo and dating was not very hard at all. My girl speaks both languages. That was a huge advantage. You guys get a good filipina they will do everything they can to make you happy! Happy New Year all 7:31
you’re honest, non judgmental, no sexist comments. So many vlogs are about where to meet women rather than where to meet people. More power to your vlog thank you
I'm glad to hear that you're not irritated after our visit! 🤣 Congrats of finding your peace and happiness in your retirement years with Janet. You've given hope to so many Western foreigners that they might find the same in the Philippines.
Mike, you are someone I hope to sit down with when I make it over there. My trip has been delayed until 2025, an I am lucky that my Filipina is waiting for my move there. The cost of living and the stress and not being alone, are all the same reasons you talk about. Merry Christmas 😊
As usual, Mike, you lay things out in realistic terms! Everything you talked about struck a chord with me. After my Filipina Wife passed, a little over 2 years ago, I couldn’t find the happiness I knew, and loneliness was my constant companion. My late Wife and I had planned to retire there, and one day I decided to pursue my half of it. Fortunately, I met the most incredible lady I’ve ever known! Christine is excited about the possibility of meeting Janet, and since I joined your channel, 7 months ago, I feel like I’m sitting with a long-time friend, when I watch your videos! I hope that we can sit down over a cup of coffee and I can introduce you and Janet to the reason I get up each day. Maybe I’ll bring you a birthday gift? Only 400 more subs to hit your 2023 goal! Great job 👍
Mike, happy for you and your family. Seems like things are humming along. I always get a sense that you are a pretty level-headed guy. Think things out, nothing speedy and drastic. All the best in the new year.
I agree 100% Mike. I'm so tired of the rat race that I live in. I'll be using next year to take care of everything that's needed to retire in the Philippines. Selling house, medical, getting 13A, etc. I'm retiring Dec of next year and the flying over in March of 2025 after making sure my SS and pensions are working correctly. Can't wait!
im reading this comment of yours, am the complete opposite-a middle age single filipina who just started life here in US with a stable job in the healthcare and realized life here in US is only good in your working age. In 3 years i can apply for US citizenship but hell no am not gonna renounce my filipino citizenship, i can be dual. . Seeing how foreiigners view my country as paradise while its own citizens perceive the Philippines as hell and land of no opportunity is absurd. I could not agree for the ambivalence. I feel like a aged a lot working here in US and wished i could have a longer lifespan and stay healthy to go back to my country and live there thinking its MY PARADISE jiust like what u US/western retirees think of it. Good luck, thanks for choosing the Philippines as your place of retirement despite of its being prone to natural calamities and not so strong economy compared to its neighboring countries.
Mike, I’m coming to Manila on or around January 15, 2024 to apply for a SRRVisa-Expanded Courtesy and then I plan to walk in your footsteps. I’m 72 and I have been following you for over a year! You’re a humble person and I appreciate the videos that you and Janet produce. I hope that I am as fortunate in the PI as you have been. Thank you!
Thanks for sharing your story and journey. It will be inspiring and informative to many. Congrats to you and Janet for crossing paths and making each others lives happier. carry on. cheers, regards.
Merry Christmas Mike and Janet. I keep following your inspiring videos. I never watch the lifestreams as they are too long and I still have other things to do, but I rarely miss one of your regular videos and will continue doing so. Enjoy the year end festivities!
Excellent talk Mike. I was in Tagbilaran for most of 2020, I certainly agree with 2 of your main themes, get in shape, and low cost of housing can make for a great end of life time. Perhaps will meet up with you in 2024 ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,working on my return 70 plus a few .🤨
Your making me cry, god bless janet shes a great girl, looking after you fully, ❤ to janet... your a great woman and to see how mike loves you so much , keep happy be safe and well, cheers 😊😊😊😊😊
Hi MIKE , you and JANET are GREAT . Please ignore these a holes and their comments. They are JEALOUS of you guys. Even if I NEVER MAKE IT to shake your hand , I am happy for you guys. Watching your videos LOWERS my blood pressure. GOD BLESS CIAO
Thank you mike for this video. Yours and my story are very similar. You're right the woman makes all the difference for a 67 yo. Take care merry christmas. God bless you and janet
Thanks Mike. you’re a great inspiration to those of us who have not made that transition to paradise yet and are still in recon mode. …A normal guy we can understand and relate to that is one of the pathfinders out of the stress to that better life. We are so happy for you and grateful that you share yourself w us. I will be in Dauin in a week again. Happy Holidays! John
Great video, great channel. 5 and a half weeks and I'm done working. Coming next November and I can't wait. Thanks for sharing Mike and Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Ensure your money flow is correct; I don't care what anyone one says about living in the PI and its cost; if you can have $2K a month income, you'll be good; $3K even better...
Hello Mike, great video. Thanks for the good incite. I am heading over to the Philippines for the first time in January and checking it out for future relocation. It would be great to meet if possible while i am over there. Merry Christmas.
Hey teamster Brother Mike. Nice video. I’m in a miserable marriage and want to make the move someday. Retired UPS man will be 64 next week. Merry Christmas Mike and beautiful Janet
Mike you looked so relaxed, and with janet your content its love mike , im so happy for you both merry Christmas to to you both and janets little boy too , enjoy and relax have fun cheers. 😊
You mentioned having good friends and how they are a valuable part of you life. How did you meet such good people? Is there a facebook group or other place to meet them? Thank you for all the good video's.
Well I don’t know you except from these videos but if my instincts are correct. I know why she is with you. You love her and it shows when you do some videos with her. You help support her and I can see you are a good man. Merry Christmas to you and your new Filipina family. You’re a lucky man and she is a lucky lady. Happy holidays 👍🇨🇦🎅🎅🎅
You seen me, I came in a wheel chair, Yep off the plane they wheeled me to my wife, Now walking pretty darn good, I’m like so chill here, Love it, We have a little kingdom here, On limited income but still 5 star living in the Province, It’s Amazing place, Caring people of course your an Asset but it has massive returns, God Bless
Merry Christmas guys happy for you,I am in Thailand very hard to communicate even at a basic level no banter with shop staff gets very lonely some days hard to drag myself out of my condo just to go get food,I never used a bike heard to many stories seen many walking wounded but the crazy driving there scares the c… out of me to drive a car on the opposite side of the road and bikes doing crazy things plus if there’s an accident it’s always the foreigner who’s in the wrong.Good Luck for 2024 eat healthy like Paul did does as I understand and get plenty of walking in and your good for another 20 years 😀
Merry Christmas to you Mike and your lovely wife Janet. Wishing you well for 2024 and beyond. Good luck on soon to be reaching your 25 k subscribers. Thoroughly deserved by what I can see is that you are a fantastic guy with a delightful wife and partner. Wishing you well. From a long distance subscriber here in the south island of New Zealand. God bless
I know how you feel Mike, funny my check engine light went on a few weeks ago. I spent $2000 at 2 shops changing parts. it's still on. I still have to fix it to get my truck inspection in New York. I look forward to visiting the Philippines next month to see it for myself!
Loneliness? I’m not even going to tell you how long I’ve been alone and Janet is with you because you are a great person and she knew that right from the start, plus she loves you, that’s why she is with you
You know Mike, what you share on your RUclips channel about your move to the Philippines, finding, falling in love, and marrying your beautiful wife, just living life there has really peaked my interest in coming there myself. What you say about being lonely when you where single also hits a cord. I never knew loneliness before this last year. My wife & I were married when we were 19 years old. We were happily married for 46 years. She died almost a year ago. I've been blessed with good health and fitness my entire life. Right now, I'm thinking about how to find that beautiful woman I believe God has for me. Maybe she is in the Philippines.
Thanks Mike, I really like this video. I'm about the same as you when you're in the US (Atlanta), and the idea of doing "you" is getting deeper, perhaps someday. "Cost of living has reduced my blood pressure," that's funny!
God bless you, Mike! You and your wonderful wife, Janet. I am planning my move to Cebu next year. I am anxious to leave the every-day stresses of USA life behind. I am not saying that I will abandon my country completely, but I do look forward to my retirement money affording me more. I like your videos. Thank you!
Hi Mike are you thinking on doing stuff to earn more money ( RUclips aside) ? Like being a landlord by buying and renting out places? Or selling stuff…?
I have a question for you which is the following please: What if you can't open a bank account in the country you are in abroad e.g. (Philippines) to receive your money from your home country e.g. (Canada) account because you are a tourist ...how would I then get my money e.g. ($1000.00 U.S. or over) from my personal bank account back home in Canada to the Philippines then? Do I have more options other than TransferWise? Thank you.
With all the women available in the Phils, it would be easy to find a woman with no kids. I'm sorry but I don't need to drama of "You're not my Dad" while i'm retired trying to enjoy my life. I'm glad you're happy, but i'm not looking for an instant family when there are better options.
Mike don’t you also have a pension? I have teamster pension from UPS plus Federal express pension as well as SS too. I live comfortably in Florida with a beautiful house and with pool and drive a New Tesla but not happy. My brother married a Pinay in 2014 living in Arizona with two beautiful daughters. Enjoy your videos! God bless you and Janet
Mike and Janet, French guy here. I met you last September in Duma, TomTom caffee. Best whishes to you both. 🙏 Past sixty years old, our fight is the same : living a healthy life during the next 20 years, surrounded by lovely people 👍
Hey Mike, you're not the only one sick of the Woke Culture, political infighting and anti law enforcement and hundreds of stupid things these people can think of in the U.S. I want to ask how you're visa being retired in the Philippines? Are you able to stay longer without having to renew every few months? Thanks.
I am not trying to be a smart ass but when you guy's vlog about the money you have to live on why does non of you include that you make a grand or so a month on you tube ? That adds a significant amount to you guys being able to move about , travel out of the country ,buying cars ,houses , etc.
So true. Some of these RUclipsrs put on a good front and budgets they stick to like when they moved there. Look at Old Dog. He was just getting by on his $1800 a month SS check with no savings. He said he would never buy anything he couldn’t walk away from. Now he is looking at buying land with his wife. Somewhat hypocritical. Probably banks a few thousand a month. Why not be open about it
I can understand why you wanted to leave because of all the political nonsense. I am almost the same age as you and had to work all my life. Now you see all the handouts given by this administration rewarding people who don’t want to work. Don’t even get me started on all the illegals coming in and the burden on us living here.
So many of the most successful bloggers in the Philippines came to the country from America between 2015 and 2020. Which is weird, because America was finally GREAT AGAIN. We had the greatest president who has ever served in American history. God chose him to save America from woke. So why leave for the Philippines? 🤔

Mike you have such a casual demeanor listening to you is like have a conversation with an old friend. You've given me so much useful information. I plan to retire and move to the Philippines next year and that adventure will be more successful because of your advice. So thanks friend.
Thanks for listening
Good job man, you look great and healthy for your age...you communicate very well and down to earth. Great show.
One thing i can tell you older guys out here. I'm 67yo and dating was not very hard at all. My girl speaks both languages. That was a huge advantage. You guys get a good filipina they will do everything they can to make you happy! Happy New Year all 7:31
stop paying for her needs and you will see the real side of her 😊
You have great attitude and outlook. I am not surprised that you are happy in Philippines, I am surprised you let Las Vegas get to you.
You and Janet are great friends and we love you both. You both started glowing after your marriage ❤❤❤
😊 thank you Both for the kind words
Great Video Mike, at the end you brought a Tear to my eye when you talked about Janet.
Glad you enjoyed it
Very good Heart felt talk.
you’re honest, non judgmental, no sexist comments. So many vlogs are about where to meet women rather than where to meet people. More power to your vlog thank you
Good nice video..Thank you..

here they just put black tape over it ..problem solved
Thanks always four videos what city you reconmended to live there in province i would like to phillipines Next year
if single live in Cebu City for a few months then try Bohol and Dumaguete
Loneliness? I’m not even going to tell you how long I’ve been alone and Janet is with you because you are a great person and she knew that right from the start, plus she loves you, that’s why she is with you
Thanks so much Ted

@@mikesphilippineretirement can travel to Philippines with 3000 Canadian for vacation
im saving up my time off so i can at least spend 3-4 weeks over there in a year, what time of year would be best to visit?
I think Feb and March
How can I access my bank account in the US while retiring in Philippine?
Access your bank website or access your funds?
@lejohn9281 same as you do at home on line or phone app...debit or credit card
Hi Mike are you thinking on doing stuff to earn more money ( RUclips aside) ? Like being a landlord by buying and renting out places? Or selling stuff…?
no but may buy a condo in the future
That could be a rental or in long term if you live in it then less monthly expenses for sure 👍
Mike and Old Dog loved to visit glory holes in Vegas
glory days , Dreamer your the guy on the other side of the door doing the nasty
@@mikesphilippineretirement i see u admit being there , but it was your buddy Mark , and stop molesting the son of Janet you pervert
What age did you retire at po?
65
You meet her when she was in hight school? Janet
I have a question for you which is the following please:
What if you can't open a bank account in the country you are in abroad e.g. (Philippines) to receive your money from your home country e.g. (Canada) account because you are a tourist ...how would I then get my money e.g. ($1000.00 U.S. or over) from my personal bank account back home in Canada to the Philippines then? Do I have more options other than TransferWise?
Thank you.
you can do a cash pick up
With all the women available in the Phils, it would be easy to find a woman with no kids. I'm sorry but I don't need to drama of "You're not my Dad" while i'm retired trying to enjoy my life.
I'm glad you're happy, but i'm not looking for an instant family when there are better options.
this is my life and my life is not for everybody
Good points. It is not for everyone including me. It does increase your dating pool dramatically
@commonsenseisntcommon1776 If she has no kids then she will want kids if she's under 35.
Mike don’t you also have a pension? I have teamster pension from UPS plus Federal express pension as well as SS too. I live comfortably in Florida with a beautiful house and with pool and drive a New Tesla but not happy. My brother married a Pinay in 2014 living in Arizona with two beautiful daughters. Enjoy your videos! God bless you and Janet
not a teamster pension as I only was in the Union 3 year in Ohio. My Dad was in local 507 for 25 years
What did you do for work in Las Vegas?
I live there for a little over a year. It's a union state so if you're in the culinary work your jobs all over in construction.
I was retired at the time
Have you been in Viet nam, what is your thoughts
Not yet soon
Mike and Janet, French guy here. I met you last September in Duma, TomTom caffee.
Best whishes to you both. 🙏
Past sixty years old, our fight is the same : living a healthy life during the next 20 years, surrounded by lovely people 👍
Hope everything works out for the both of us

Mysterious correction at 15:05
i said we dated for a year in the video I miss spoke and wanted to say we lived together for a year. Not Mysterious. Thanks
Hey Mike, you're not the only one sick of the Woke Culture, political infighting and anti law enforcement and hundreds of stupid things these people can think of in the U.S. I want to ask how you're visa being retired in the Philippines? Are you able to stay longer without having to renew every few months? Thanks.
On a tourist Visa you must keep extending every 2 to 6 months. And can stay in the Philippines up to 36 months
Oh my... The photo you post you should have to correct your Philippines flag..the blue color is on top not the red color... 😮
ok thanks you
@@mikesphilippineretirementgood you change it
and dont forget our big 3.2% raise next month on social security i did get a update letter in the mail
sounds good 3.2 better than a kick in the face
I am not trying to be a smart ass but when you guy's vlog about the money you have to live on why does non of you include that you make a grand or so a month on you tube ? That adds a significant amount to you guys being able to move about , travel out of the country ,buying cars ,houses , etc.
So true. Some of these RUclipsrs put on a good front and budgets they stick to like when they moved there. Look at Old Dog. He was just getting by on his $1800 a month SS check with no savings. He said he would never buy anything he couldn’t walk away from. Now he is looking at buying land with his wife. Somewhat hypocritical. Probably banks a few thousand a month. Why not be open about it
Yes Janet and I do earn money every month for YT. I do not buy cars or houses. But it does help with traveling and living in 2 different cities
Mike why are you wearing eyeliner looks strange
my new look
Hanging out at a high school sounds weird
who is hanging out at what school
Actually mister Mike you are quite a good looking man now sir, you are sexy sir
Yes I am ..hahaha
I can understand why you wanted to leave because of all the political nonsense. I am almost the same age as you and had to work all my life. Now you see all the handouts given by this administration rewarding people who don’t want to work. Don’t even get me started on all the illegals coming in and the burden on us living here.
I saw all that and it made me want to leave even more
Mate, use your common sense next time and tell us the monthly rent in US dollars. Pesos mean nothing for comparative purposes!!
mate if you can not convert pesos to Dollars you need to learn how. The exchange rate changes all the time. Sorry Mate
So many of the most successful bloggers in the Philippines came to the country from America between 2015 and 2020.
Which is weird, because America was finally GREAT AGAIN. We had the greatest president who has ever served in American history. God chose him to save America from woke.
So why leave for the Philippines?
🤔
sorry to say this, but you take care of worthless people in there The relationship feels one-sided, so you the last one give us advice
