- Опубликовано: 28 сен 2024
- The reason that the American Dream is no longer real for most average Americans and why life can be better abroad in Europe or Asia. Divorce, debt, and the destruction of the middle class by both parties. Why I gave up on the American Dream and left for the Philippines and other areas of the World.

Great video, I have been through a divorce about 8 years ago and lost everything, was lucky to find a great Filipino lady and brought her here to the USA. We are counting the days until my child support of 8 years is up for my three children from my first marriage to an American liberated woman. 22 more months to go and we are selling our home with some equity and taking out my 401k . Iloilo is where we are heading, I will still have about 5 years before I can collect my social security but I will find some way to earn or my wife will . Can’t take this insane society anymore.
i have a fiance in Roxas City. Planning on moving there. I am already retired and drawing pensions and social security.
I am so tired of watching this country implode with the greed, and hatred.
just be careful and manage your finances carefully if you ever marry a filipina. There are some instances where some foreigners became broke here in Philippines. I even see some became beggars on the street.
@@Bigboy-tb7ftNo joke..has to be managed. Income stream is best. They can't steal what you haven't got yet.
@@Bigboy-tb7ftbeggars? Really ? I guess some have got some mental health issues
I'm thinking of doing the same. Good luck to you and your family.
my american dream is to leave america .
There are thousands of filipino nurses in the US. They have adopted the American Dream and are living it. The people who are materialistic are the ones who go to countries where the dollar stretches farther like the Philippines.
@@jlolopez9623 those filipino nurses are going back to the philippines. they are just in the US to earn to support their family in the philippines and to support themselves in their retirement in the philippines.
Demorats have destroyed America
Me too ✔️👍
@@jlolopez9623wrong
Wow this video punched me in the chest ! My thoughts exactly ! My financial status is not what yours is but honestly I can’t do this in the USA 🇺🇸 anymore. I have a skill that I can pop back here to the USA 🇺🇸 for a few months a year to make money. I hope eventually I never have to go back. The Philippines 🇵🇭 is my future home period ! They can have this place usa !!! I fell in love with the Philippines 🇵🇭 and I knew when I returned to the USA 🇺🇸 this was not my home anymore !
I love USA! From the Philippines here now i am happy in the USA.
I tried living in the PI in 2000. Made it a year. Couldn't handle the daily hassles and inconveniences. Not as cheap as people make it look to be unless you live like a Filipino.
@@Robert-lq5cc so many variables in the Philippines 🇵🇭 for sure ! I found a beautiful little house 5 min walk from the beach for 7000 peso per month . But it is in a rural area most people might not want to be . I know many of my ex- pat friends that could never live the lifestyle i am seeking . This is why I love the Philippines 🇵🇭. Just want a place near the ocean where I can write and swim with turtles ! Lol 😂
@@bigdreamsphilippines I agree with you sir! I tried living in Angeles back in 2000 on my civil service disability and I could only take about 10 months. Once the honeymoon ended, about 3 months, then everything became routine, inconvenient, and many more hassles than I anticipated. I've been traveling to the Philippines since 1995 so I've been there 3 times before I tried living there. Wonderful people but you have to be careful. They will take advantage of you! Remember you are a piece of steak living amongst a country of lions. You are considered wealthy even though you might live on the streets in the US. Our lawyer vlogger can afford to live there and come back to the US at free will if he chooses. I have a very good pension even though I didn't graduate college. I have a Filipina g/f I met here in the US and she still maintains her Filipina ways after living in the US for 20 plus years. I have 3 pension, SS, Civil service, and Air Force so I'm happy with what I got. Not into all this luxury crap which is nothing more than eye candy and to keep up with the Jones.
@@winterfavorite6260 Thank you these expats are just losers who couldn't do anything good in life, they want to be spoon fed, 99.99% come here preying on young poor desperate Filipina ladies who are uneducated, I'm heading back tot he USA in Feb 2024 and never going back to the Philippines, God bless USA.
The America our ancestors settled to is dead and gone so we need to move on for a better life. It's lamentable but there's no sense staying and going down with the ship.
Great video 👍. Loving my retired life in Okinawa!
Just spent time in Okinawa SEMPER FI
Good job sharing your thoughts. My husband and I achieved majority of Americans dreams by being contented of what we have. We did not have big dreams like others, we did not keep up with the Jones next door, we drove used cars etc. Due to this we were able to get out of debt very fast and able to retire early. We had a share of hard work to achieve what we had accomplished but not to the point of exhaustion unlike others. FEW WANTS IS THE KEY. The real happiness is the ability to be happy and contented of the less wants you have achieved. Good luck 👍💓🎉
Hell yeah! I’m retiring (a year early) in December after 40 years of military and commercial piloting, and will move to Thailand full time in January. The materialism and politics of this country nauseates me and your words articulated everything i’ve been thinking since i began considering my own move abroad. Subscribed!
They say Thailand's visa process is getting a little ridiculous. I'm considering Cambodia or Philippines. Cambodia has the least visa requirements in SE Asia, but there's the language barrier.
@@Sheepletonno country wants expats they want the money so when expats run just know they can boot you due to being an expat. I tell many split your time and enjoy the best of both worlds because take Thailand elite visa as an example it should be gold but it’s a money pit that can be taken from you and you have to leave versus if we are home we have a fighting chance so just be wise when moving abroad as they have the same problems as us we just had an opportunity to make money due to being in AMerica that’s why we can run away but where we go they can’t run away😢
This is the first time that I’ve ever watched your channel. This is great content definitely the same thing that I’ve been saying to my friends. I am sharing this video with everyone in my circle. Thanks my brother.
Same here in Canada. This time next year I'll be completely sold off and ready to head out of here.
I think this has been the best video by far. I lived this same experience of going to college, working long hours each week, and loosing half of what I worked hard for in a divorce. The town in which I live is a tourist town and most employers require you to work 60+ hours a week for chump change. So yeah, I applaud anyone who moves away from the US and can actually live a better life. 👏
New sub here after seeing this video. Excellent commentary, as I saw the writing on the wall many years ago of everything you spoke of in this video. Sold everything in the US, packed 4 large suitcases and moved to the Philippines having never made a single trip prior. It is now 8 years this month since I've made that bold move. Been happily married for 7 years and living in the Philippines with zero regret. If you are ever in Iloilo, give us a shout!
It sure was a bold move. I've heard of guys selling the farm and moving to the Philippines without even testing the waters. I would say most come back to the US only to find that videos don't tell much of a story. I been going to the Philippines since 1995 for a total of 4 times and on the fourth trip I gave it a try in 2000. I made it nearly 9 months and I had more than I could stand. It takes patience of steel to live there and that's not me. I missed my conveniences and a system I was familiar with. Good luck!
brother i hear you.
i have given up on the Australian dream as well.
divorce in progress.
have a girl in leyte.
looking forward to settling around Ormoc city in a couple of years.
just arrived here in US as immigrant nurse 2yrs ago and Im planning to get out already but still long way to go. Giving my self 10more yrs, to live peaceful in the Philippines.
Straight facts brother
Moral of the story is don't get married. I learned the hard way, just don't. Marriage is a women insurance imposed on men by government and by community. Live together, when you're not happy jump on to the next relationship without loosing any of your assets 😊
Wrong! The Moral of the story is don't get married...to a _Westernized female,_ Especially an American Hyena.
Fact, don't get married.
Dual CITIZEN here (USA AND Philippines)
Everything you say is 💯 FACTS
I'm glad I started my financial independence journey 2 yrs ago. Hopefully would hit that goal and able to retire EARLY in the Philippines (45 yrs old). We still own couple of PAID off properties in the Philippines, and I'm glad my mother listened to me not to SELL our properties.
Homelessness is RAMPANT. Foreclosure is going up.
US Government spending money like drunken sailor
I don't want USA to fail but the REALITY is we are heading to the WRONG DIRECTION.
I plan to be in PI. in 6 month s to get away from the stress of the US.
God Bless, Good Luck
Love the content, Dr. Laway. Also very happy that you can express reality in an apolitical way. Political = public, which expresses your own public behavior and your desire for others' public behavior. Political thought belongs to each person individually, and can emerge in the character of a community, state, or nation. But personal politics have been ingested by popular, or I would say "fast food," politics. And the fast food political menus we are brainwashed with (worldwide, and certainly in the US) have nothing to do with individual choice. It's just an old foot-in-the-door sales tactic that precludes any thought of alternative candidates, alternative issues, or alternative scripts for your own life. Fast food politics are always motivated by money, pitting one side against another in imaginary conflict that enriches only the existing structure of the existing rich, with controlled exceptions. If you actually believe in popular politics, right or left, you're at an extreme disadvantage in scripting your own life. Thanks for the suggestions. Maybe i'll share these ideas with my blushing new Filipina bride:) Philippines life upcoming?
Thanks Doc for a really awake take on the current state of reality. God bless!!!
💯 Can't argue that and nothing to add. You nailed it, bro.
@9:11 "two wings same bird." Socialize the losses, privatize the gains.
That's interesting that electricians stuck out to you.
I wonder why, is there something about an electrician's lifestyle that makes it extra stressful on marriages?
My first year practicing I represented an Electrician who worked for a utility and got him full custody of his children, his house and helped him keep most of his money after trial. He later sent lots of fellow electricians from the union for me to represent. So basically I had a ton of clients from that occupation over the years.
You definitely hit the nail on the head in this video. ❤ love your content
Nice! love it. Watching from Saigon. I guess the big thing is, can we adjust to the different surroundings than we are used to. It's kind of breaking out of the comfort zone. I haven't been to Davao but Manilia and Cebu yeah... Those would be a huge adjustment from peaceful little town (but super expensive) USA.
I LOVE AMERICA 😇
We all love America, but sometimes she doesn't love us back 💔 😂
I'm not college educated I was soldier for 25 years. You are right about American dream. It's dead.
It is more affordable to live in the Philippines. As of Sept. 4th
11 kilograms of propane gas in the Philippines is now about $17.72 The similar size propane tank in the U.S.A. is 20 gallons at $2.92 a gallon or over $58! We have seen prices in the U.S. as high as $3.24 per gallon. WHY is there such a huge difference?
Gasoline is approx. $5+ per gallon here. We expect huge increases soon
Mind blowing statistics about divorce in USA, big Shirley family court system is stacked against the US male/father.
Excellent video! You will extend your life living in The PH, less=more
we had enough, I see bad days ahead in the next 3 months. Biden has turned the US into a police state. We are moving back to the Philippines oct 2nd
Thank God I was never infected with this American dream propaganda.
My parents always told me about the great depression and how variants of this can happen again. This American dream propaganda is a product of a very small slice of time that people reminisce about being mainly from the late 1940, s to the mid 1960, s. I fortunately was able to talk with people who were of working age in the 1920, s and the 1930, s.An interesting time the 1930, s to say the least..This may happen again.

Great video~! And so true~!

I will someday , thanks for staying in our country take care
Well brother ,,, I started my plan to move to the Philippines 🇵🇭 2 1/2 years go ,,, had a 5 year plan when I started … but as the last couple years have unfolded , I moved my plans up ,,, I’m coming for my first visit/ research in February for up to 3 months … then I will come back and finish selling my homes 🏡 and get ready for my move next summer ..
Same in Australia, and my Birthplace Switzerland 🤨
I’ve been following you for a bit and I’m 100 % sure you know where Ridgefislds Golf Club is and if that’s the you’re Definitely familiar with Skobys was. I’ll be in the Davao area in about 3 weeks. I appreciate your content and channel. Thank you for everything you do.
"16 TONS" The American Dream.
I never borrow any money. I don't have credit card. I never borrowed any money to pay for my house or vehicle. I paid it full. I started small. Make money. Invest it. And buy a little bit bigger. Sell or rent out. Don't spend money what you don't have.
The Philippines is the money maker. A great investment
Nope! I will not do that. I am Happy with my life in America we are earning good money combined and we have a little kid that i want to go to good school in America. I also love the weather here i need a break from the humid weather. Philippines is a place that i will visit again for sure. My relatives are there i grow up there so i knew the difference. Material things are okay i love my shopping life. I don't have sky rocket debts.
I had a nice house, two cars, good amount disposable income (no kids) and this isn’t enough. I want to live in a place that’s safe, isn’t car centric and people are actually genuinely nice. I’ve lived all over the U.S. and couldn’t really find a somewhat decent sized city that had this anymore. It’s gone. So I moved to Europe and easily found it. Don’t have to worry about a mass shooting or road rage or seeing tons of homeless people on the streets. The U.S. is in decline and as soon as people start voting with the brains instead of their emotions, we might see some change. Vote for who has the best policies that help EVERYONE, not just you.
..very informative. I'll forget my American dream. Lol..I'm a senior citizen from Batangas.
It's like the popular saying the American dream is dead. I'm a single father raising 2 kids, they don't have a mom anymore, but because I'm a man, I don't get any of the assistance that single moms get. I have to work twice as much to maintain a middle class lifestyle but I don't get much time for my kids. And it's terrible. I've been looking at moving us to another country, my only concern and the reason I haven't moved yet is because I'm worried about my kids education, mainly the language barrier, so I want to find a good place that is primarily English speaking with a good education system. But I really want to get myself and my kids out of the US so we can have a better life, as soon as I find the best place, I'm selling my house and vehicles and everything and just going to move.
Great content 👍
Thank you 🙌
You have some great content, but this is my favorite video on the channel so far. I really like the insight, perspective, etc. on this subject. The US is overrated. The ultra-consume mentality alone is sickening enough for me to want to leave. Currently trying to determine if some consulting firms will allow me to work from PH. Greetings (with jealousy) from Dallas, TX.
Do you know Cali gasoline is more expensive than PH?
Hey Doc, found a receipt from my old college days. $900 for a semester of university for full tuition and a room.
So true
I never want to get married, no matter where I live.
I will be overseas by the end of next year
I am confused by that last part you said about taxes. I have lived abroad since 1996. The Foreign Income Exclusion for 2023 is $120,000. This means that I do not have to pay any taxes on the 1st $120k of earned income. Also, what you said about the "powers that be" are trying to stop people from living abroad. This argument makes no sense, since so many companies are exporting US jobs to 3rd world countries (American auto is prime example where after NAFTA, the Big 3 Auto Companies sent jobs from Detroit to Mexico and then sent jobs to China so to pay yet an even smaller salary to Chinese workers). Gates sent jobs of programmers from California and Seattle to India, again to save the company $$$ and the US had again lost on US taxes from US workers.
I know that America is the only country on Earth that requires all American x-pats to file US taxes. I myself have filed since 1999, and presently use a CPA for my taxes. Granted my taxes are rather complicated, since I own real estate in Arizona, I pay now around $1,700 just to file my yearly US taxes, granted that I owe the US federal government nothing.
Facts.
The only way to achieve the American dream is not to play the game. Don't get married!!! I don't know how to say it more clearly.
Preach it brudda! I've been here in the Philippines for 11 years now. This fatca and other taxation without representation bullshitake nneds to stop! One note for those wanting to live in the Philippines is that the Philippines has a lot of absurd limitations for expats - even permanent residents like myself. I've actually been seriously thinking of renouncing my American citizenship and becoming a citizen here. I'm still weighing the options and there simply isn't much info available for doing this process. At least I know I qualify.
dual citizenship is allowed in the philippines. you don't need to renounce your other citizenship unless it is just a burden to you,.
@@wavemaker2077 As far as I've gathered from my own research, dual citizenship is for those who are basically Filipino - either from Filipino parents or they were born in the Philippines. I don't have an drop of Filipino blood, and I was born in the United States - so I don't think I can be a dual citizen. I'd love to be wrong though!
@@welashubby unfortunately, you may be right. lol.
Renounce! Since the U.S. is the only Country on the planet (other than Eritrea and North Korea) that taxes it’s citizens on any income they earn, no matter where in the _Observable Universe_ they earned it, this may cause unintended consequences. Some people were born in the U.S., and their parents moved them to some other Country, or a person was born to a U.S. parent overseas - which made them a U.S. citizen - even though they never stepped foot on U.S. soil in their lives…are liable for taxes due the U.S. This tax-trap has been a nightmare for many expats. US government forces most foreign banks to disclose data on expats that have bank accounts, and Uncle Sam can drain your foreign bank accounts - a foreign bank account is not immune from seizure by the US government...if the account is held by a U.S. citizen.
The downside is one won't get any Social Security or other Gub'ment benefits they may have qualified for.
Most Americans (those that have assets less than $2M) that decide to renounce simply have to pay the current base fee of $2350.00 (IRS could still audit and assess taxes and penalties from previous returns), file a Form 8854, be current on their taxes, *have an alternate citizenship,* and appear before a U.S. Consul in that country to tell them they can shove their U.S. citizenship where the sun don’t shine.
@@welashubby On the contrary, Kulas (BecomingFilipino), is now a Filipino citizen but i think he is still a Canadian citizen. So dual citizenship is possible. But I'm not sure if your pension will be discontinued if you renounce your American citizenship. You better check that out.
I went through a divorce in the US several years ago and I agree that the laws are totally stacked against men in the US. But as a Filipino American, I disagree with your conclusion that there are better places than the US to live. I think it completely depends on each person’s values and points of view. I appreciate your perspective and your thoughts, but I don’t share your conclusions about America. America has its faults, but I still believe that the great experiment embarked upon by the founding fathers of our constitution created something special. Call me naive. I think if you look deep enough, you’ll see that the Philippines has as many problems in their government, if not more, than many other countries, including the United States. It’s just a matter of perspective.
I think your observation is astute. America as a republic may have a second chapter. Each state has a constitution after all. One can see how central planning stifles growth and innovation by looking at the European model. It all depends on which path is taken. Personally I believe the idea of a commonwealth is best as it should, if functioning properly, exist for the benefit and betterment of the people.
when was the last time you were in the philippines? i'm not sure about this many problems in the philippines that you are talking about. there are indeed problems in the philippines. which country doesn't have one? but the problems in the philippines are miniscule if compared to the problems in the US. hate crimes, weekly mass shootings, gender identity crisis, racial discrimination, homeless people everywhere, legalized shop lifting, very high cost of living, etc.
stop inviting everyone to asia
I don't get why everyone's making these videos they already changed the standard to the American dream a lot of these people need to catch on the American dream now is a tiny home that's the American dream it's no longer a big house picket fence big family it is a tiny home and single and miserable
Obama got blown off.
I agree with everything you lay out - America is a total rat race. During my military days I traveled to the Philippines many times and always enjoyed my time there. I found the people to be very friendly and the women where completely different than in the US. Fast forward many years - I did everything - got my college degree - worked my ass off - when through the divorce - got into heavy debt and lost pretty much everything. Today, I am out of debt, have a new home - plenty of money from investments and ready cash and have more than I could possibly need to cover the remaining part of my life. I am well past retirement and I still work in the company that I started. The only thing lacking in my life now is a good relationship which is now almost impossible to find in the US. At some point I will take a vacation back to the Philippines - the beaches look amazing. I'm not ready to cash out in America yet but with the current BS going on in the elections if the Democrats remain in power that will most likely push me to cash out and move - until then thanks for your video, you lay it out pretty well.
Passport bro. U finally Lelf America 😅 everybody doing it now western woman got too much power even the ugly one
whats the native American Indian dream???
time travel before the mayflower landed and sink it🤣

@@samsilverman824 says you? who are you? lets see your research with citations. thanks
This is hilarious!😝@@DHcycling
I've been in the U.S. now for 2 weeks after living in the Philippines for almost 2 years. I told my Filipino wife today I miss home in the Philippines. People in the U.S.are rude and in a hurry to get somewhere. Prices here in Florida are outrageous. Most younger folks are rude to seniors since I'm in a senior heavy town of Englewood. I need to be here until December for a family illness. I'm going to try and make it. My heart is in the Philippines.
Hello, I am from Punta Gorda and I miss the Philippines also. Fell free to reach out to me. I am currently selling my PG Home
I agree, it's like everyone is afraid of one another in a dog-eat-dog environment! My heart is there too, along with my wife and 3 children with her there. I am on my last year in the military and plan to move there permanently with them next year. I am a Gen Xer , I pray for the younger generations here, it is getting so ugly!
Amen. I leave the US in 28 days for all the reasons you just listed.

Waaay ahead of his time.
I’m 100% into leaving. It’s getting so bad here, like a circus horror show dystopia.
Nowhere is perfect and moving is a wake up call living abroad. Be wise on the move I split my time between AMerica and abroad perfect combo for me as I said nowhere is perfect must are tolerable at best
preach my brother! i learned that the dream is really a nightmare in my early 30s in the early 2000 and decided that my physical and mental health was more important. i worked less and spent less to save for my 50s to move to the Philippines and enjoy life. If i had subscribed to the "american dream", i would still be in the usa going through the motions just to pay the mortgage and necessary things like a car in order to live the "dream" Now im in Laguna enjoying life even better than when i was in the usa and not have to worry about being told to go back to my country. dont believe the hype
Well said. I work to live, I don't live to work. For those who made it and escaped the rat race gotta say I'm damn envious of.
Been through all of it and divorce 2 times. Had to retire early because of work relayed injury. Sold house, flue into the Phillipines in January, 2023. Got SRRV, a car, today, a house. (Yes in her name) Nothing close in size or cost as in the USA. I don't need that. But i can tell anyone that is considering becoming an expat, passbook bro, or just want to live a better happier better live. I have settled in San Tomas, Batangas. Life is sweet and simple. Leave the American, western standards behind. Famine traditional women are here everywhere, that will except you as you are so long as you respect their culture, traditions and treat them the way they treat you. I am 68, she is 33. Known each other for 3 years. No woman i was ever treated me the way she does, comes natural to her. Leave western American standards behind you, get out of so called comfort zone. The smile on your face every morning will be just 1 of the many reasons why you have to escape the consumer brain washing. Get out while you still can.
I should arrive January, in Lemery, Batangas to start building a house.
The American nightmare. You can have it. I’ll find heaven on earth and if it’s outside America what can I say.
These are the raw realities in achieving the "American dream". This is such a great content. You deserve to be heard.
The only word that comes to my mind is hopeless. Any man who is at least 50, has no chance of living the kind of life he was expecting/promised/wanted when he was just starting out unless he is extremely wealthy or lives in a way that society leaves him alone. No one cares about men in America and all the cards he has been dealt are bad. Nor do they care about his struggles and certainly no woman is going to be there when times are tough. I got out 4 years ago after preparing 5 years prior to my move. It is one thing to actually make the move, but quite another to succeed. After 5 trips to my desired location, the final transition was smooth and easy. There is no way I would ever want to live in the states again and the only reason I go back is to visit my 93 year old mother. After she is gone, i hope I will never set foot on American soil again.
Absolutely facts here! Get out while you can is a theme I'm hearing a LOT more often. People are planning to scatter like roaches when the light comes on. Sad, but very true.
Not sad at all! There is nothing noble or patriotic about being just another cog in the wheel, another brick in the wall, or another part in their machine.
So true
Thanks for telling the truth, Brother. I'll be right behind you in about 3 years when my SS payment kicks in!!
Oh I have to correct you on buying PlayStations and Xboxes some of us make money gaming so it's actually a career too so you can't really talk crap on buying PlayStations people that play the video games specially the bigger ones make more than me and you put together and working
The bigger our government gets, the worse life here gets.
A lawyer giving up on the American dream???? Ironic! Lawyers i thought made pretty good money and could afford to live the American dream and if wanted the Philippine dream also.
This video really resonated with me. I'm looking of forward to moving to the Philippines.
Getting an Iphone....thats where people went wrong. Shoulda got a Samsung 😁....kidding aside, the US fkg SUCKS. I despise how we live and its time to go.
Dreams are meant to stay dreams ;)
Move here ladies & gentlemen . You are all welcome here . We will treat you as one of our kind . We are all brothers & sisters in the eyes of God . Even Chinese, but there is a condition that they will behave or else something will happen that they won't like . 😂😆😂 A lot of chinise people living in our country but we don't criticize them just because of the territorial dispute . We get angry only to their President & to local officials because of their greedy behavior . I know most civilians don't like their President too because they will face danger as well . Come all people on earth 🌎🌍 everybody is welcome even your pets 😅😂😀 The world is our home 🏡 What are you waiting for ? Common let's go ! 🇵🇭☀️⭐⭐⭐ More fun in the Philippines 💪⛵🇵🇭🇺🇲
The American dream doesn't exist in the real world. The American dream is equivalent to slavery. You live to work and still be buried in debt. The American dreams signifies people living and spending money they do not have.
I think it's partly getting away from the weight of expectations. You may ask, personal or societal? Well, can a lobster be happy in a boiling pot? Only a very special lobster. - WW
Same shit in Australia and the UK. If you don’t like the game play another one. Bravo!
Fantastic video full of truth. Politicians from both parties are not for the people. I believe time is short
As a fellow member of the bar in one of the 50 US States, it is interesting how many members of the profession understand how broken everything here is, and it's so broken even the lawyers can't fix it. This in a country where 37 of the 56 men who signed their own death warrant to start the country were lawyers.

American dream is just a dream
Nailed it! I have been here in the philippines for 2 years and 4 months now in the general santos area I believe it to be psychological what does really make a person happy or find joy peace and serenity in their life. The amazing thing to me is that most filipinos it seems really want to believe that the american way is in fact the dream life that everyone should have. I keep telling them that they are rich in ways they don't really even know or seem to understand because of the environment that God has provided for them. Married and divorced four times in my adult life I have been a victim of exactly what you are talking about starting over each time in search of the american dream. I am a retired Ford Motor Company auto worker now living the retirement life that I could never have believe existed. Thanks again brother and keep the messages coming.
A lot of Filipinos just don't realize what they have because they always have it so they take it for granted. Then they look for something which they don't have. In this case, they are material possessions. But once they have accumulated more than enough material possessions, they will then realize that what makes them really happy are the simple things in life which they already have all along.
General Santos can be dangerous to Cebu
Are you Muslim? Because Muslim can marry four times 😂
@@nevergiveup-db6fpwhat do you mean General Santos can be dangerous to Cebu?
American dream for Filipinos varies from their social status in society. For example, the ones in poverty is to afford to eat couple of times a day and not worried if they can afford to send their kids to good school. The family that are barely scraping ok wants to afford a house and so forth. And who wouldn’t, that’s why many take a chance to go overseas. It’s not for luxuries they are after but to have a decent way of living. The rich, well they have the means to enjoy those material things, so good for them if that’s what makes them happy.
Mostly divorced men are leaving America. Chance to start over and escape the disrespectful feminists. Yeah, it's a shame.
SOUNDS CORRECT ♥ GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR FUTURE ♥ HAVE AN ASAWA, BUT TRUSTED NY LACK OF KNOWLEDGE AND TRIED THE KI VISA HERE IN USA.

American dream is work work work till you retire. Sometimes money you make is not even enough to retire. All you do is to pay bills. You can’t pay bills the collection agency will send a letter of warning.
the American dream requires you to sacrifice your health for "wealth" then when you retire you sacrifice your wealth for your health 😆
I've given up on the American dream. It is no longer a reality for most people. Plus, I don't like the lawlessness that has become rampant in the US
