Don't hate on overstay road because he is comfortable and worry free and you are not. Learn to appreciate the little things in life and you just might find peace.

      1) His food station has no food (i.e. tomatoes, oranges, etc.).
      2) His buddy “who died” drank two bottles of hard liquor every night. This alone inspires me to drink even less than I currently do (not much). If I drank one whole bottle of hard liquor even once, I am sure that I’d drop dead (and positive I’d at least wind up in the hospital)!
      3) The windows have “burglar bars” and retractable glass, but no screens (for mosquitoes)!
      4) There is no mattress on the bed.
      5) The “bum gun” is the shower!
      6) Sure, this is worth $28/month, but although I am frugal, I’d rather pay a lot more for a condo with air-con/gym/pool and keep my liver relatively healthy.
      7) This video is pure craziness!

  • @PPISAFETY
    @PPISAFETY 5 лет назад +10

    Hey man, I enjoyed your video and it made me smile. I did pretty much the same thing from 2005-2012, but I kept a little place in Manila. It was a lot newer and cost me $100 per month but was a much similar amount of space. I did spend a little money on some things like a mattress and a toilet seat however and don't regret that a bit.
    I went back and forth to the US several times a year to earn money while my wife and new son lived there. We were very happy until my wife decided we must be rich and insisted on getting a much bigger house, maids (yes, plural), a car we didn't need at all and of course a place to park it. I was much happier in the little place we started out in, sitting out in front of my house in a folding chair in the morning having coffee, or watching the door to door vendors on bicycles bring around cold beer, hot pork rinds, and even hot corn on the cob for a few pesos. I actually knew my neighbors, because they sat out there with me, and many a night was spent with them having fun and singing. You get used to the roosters pretty quickly as well, and there is nothing quite like collecting fresh mangoes that have just dropped free from the tree in your yard to have for breakfast.
    I don't think people here in the US realize that in the Philippines, for many, your little house itself is just a place to cook, sleep, crap, and bathe, and you live your life outside and with other people. That was part of the joy in living there, and you very quickly forget about all the material gadgets you though you needed back home. If you are an American with a source of income, you do enjoy the fact that each month you are not faced with a crushing mortgage payment, and have cash to take the family places and do things, or just enjoy the stuff the Phils offer nearly free, like the beaches.
    I'm glad you found something that works for you. I am curious about your "house rules" on no Facebook, texting, sleeping, etc. That's a joke, right? Cheers!

      Brett guess we see things different. Two big risk in PH. Number 1, Flash to much money and get kidnapped for money. Number 2, wife steals your house. Foreigner s cant own land.

    Ok people I live one island over from this guy on an island called Leyte and I love it. This guy is definitely SLUMMING it and I would not pay 1,000 pesos a month for that place!! What I do pay for is 5,000 pesos a month which at today's rate is $92 for a TWO BEDROOM HOUSE ACTUALLY ON THE WATER. I have a Fridge, AirCon, running HOT water in the CR, Microwave, Big Screen TV mounted on the wall, Coffee Pot, two beds with ACTUAL MATTRESSES etc. lol. I have a Housemaid AND a Nanny too!! And all that living off my Marine Corps Retirement and VA Disability. I also own a brand new Motorcycle and I just purchased a 2012 Suzuki Van. I put my girlfriend daughter through private school. My Uncle lives here on another island and so does my best friend so I travel every other month. YES YOU CAN LIVE LIKE A KING here IF you plan wisely.

    Its amazing how that country lures Americans and Europeans into thinking that living there is the greatest thing. VISITING THERE IS TGE GREATEST THING, NOT LIVING THERE! I would never try to live there ever, as opposed to living in Europe or the USA! And it’s funny that this dude is talking about staying there and living there, when everybody there is trying to get the hell out! If he ever stop drinking at least for three days straight, It be asking himself: “ Where the HELL am I at and what the hell am I doing? LOL 😂

    I respect you and your humility. I saw this video after your feedback video at Score Birds. Dude, ignore all these @$$holes and their comments. I think your doing well. Living humbly and living like the locals. Immersion is the only way to learn the culture. Good on you Mark. Keep it up. BTW, I’d love an invite to drink with you at your condo 😉!
