Paul Old Dog subscriber here! Good interview. 👍 I specially like how you let Paul do most of the talking and didn't interrupt him. You also asked pretty good questions. I'm not gonna go to your constant camera fiddling. I think you got plenty of constructive criticism in that area already 😄 Ok, gave you a thumbs up and a subscribe. Looking for more videos from you Bro. Good luck !
Trying to get caught up on your vids ! This was a great 👍 interview. Glad to see you back in Philippines 🇵🇭. It’s definitely my passion and paradise ! Take care
This interview hit a lot of important points. Very illuminating for those forming a plan for relocation. By the way I've lived in a small, beautiful, and growing province for the past 5 years. Like Dumaguete, but on a smaller scale, I've witnessed a growth in "local" wealth. My assessment is that most of that new wealth is not produced locally but rather imported from the metro areas of Cebu and Manila, and from OFWs, and to a smaller degree from expats. Filipinos with means see these idyllic locations as good places to take their money and enjoy a more peaceful life. Yes, this does significantly drive up the cost of living for the original locals.
Paul is a freaking legend 🎉. Great interview, it is a little distracting when you’re checking the camera 🎥 so often. Just be conscious of it in the future bro ….❤🎉
Right now Im going through what Paul did. I just got back from a 3 month trip all over Thailand. Ive been home now for 5 weeks. Not a day goes by that I dont think about my future plans to move there. 10 more years for me. Im 43
I'm the same way about "The Beach" (Beaches) .. I grew up near, around, on beaches "my whole life" .. Navy, Merchant, MSC .. After a while, ya seen one , ya seen them all" .. I lived in FL for 16 yrs .. Cracks me up, all the "Beach Worshipers" .. Usually (Ghost white) Land Locked Mid Westerner's & Canadians, who "Never Seen a Beach" (a Pool or the Sun) .. I Enjoyed the hell out of Tiki & Beach Bars though (the vibe) ..
Philippines and Vietnam is getting richer. Somewhat because of businesses moving out of China. Poverty in Philippines is decreasing. Slowly, but improving. It's even more noticeable in Vietnam. More people can afford more "things" . It impacts the cost of living which always goes up with the ageless supply/demand.
Come to Balamban you won’t complain about the hotels in Cebu City. Balamban has great people just not many great hotels, at least I haven’t found any yet.
Bro Aaron you seem real awkward behind that camera. I’m not sure why, I wish you luck with your channel. Peeping down at the phone like you’re waiting for something to happen , adjusting the phone constantly, and I do mean constantly. I think you keep messing with the phone because you’re not in the moment with your guess. Hopefully Old dog will give you some tips. You see how he flows with it so naturally.
One other thing, at the beginning of the interview you made a few statements like you are just meeting Paul and it was difficult to wrangle him, and yet this is y’all second interview.
@@aaronaround For what it is worth, I agree with you....Unfortunately Paul has been unable to see what is right in front of him. There are about 10k expats in the greater Duma area (Valencia Dauin etc_ and when that many people with their "western lifestyle shows up in a small place like Dramaguete....well...what you and I know is that they vastly change the landscape. The average pinoy makes $200usd a month...these expats have on average $2000 a month(that money circulates in that town...far more than Paul Boy can comprehend)..When Paul and his buddies drop 50k...75k...100k on a little lot...those pinoy run out and get new cars...big screen tvs...and all the other status items....When expats drop 50k...100k on a cow patty lot of a .25 acre...things change. Leave Duma and travel 100 miles away...and you can find .25 acre lots for 1k...2k....3k....all day! But Paul was a used car salesman...not a economist...it's not his fault that he does not understand real world economics. He has a gift for gab...not a gift for understanding trickle down economics. Pauly....the price of a coconut has not gone up 1000x...as it would have needed to for you to be seeing all the "middle class" you feel you are seeing. Expats have made Dramaguete what it is i.e. 10k expats x $2000usd = 20 million usd...a month being pumped into Duma + many expats have 100k...200k etc nest eggs...which they shoot off for a house ...countless 100's of millions more being pumped in to the local economy...and this has been going on for .....DECADES. God bless Pauly boy..going to take a lot more than his glasses for him to see the light.! :(
Is it possible to find quiet places to live anywhere in the Philippines? Be it an apartment or condo, a house, in a small town in a big city? Anywhere basically. I can cope with anything, inefficient service, bad quality food, traffic etc but I cannot cope with lack of sleep and peace.
@@MikeRotchich If, in those places, the rental owners are renting to expats, at expat quality, and expat prices, bringing expat money into the Philippine economy, what would be the complaint again ... ?
@@aaronaround I suppose anyone can disagree, of course. I looked up the stats which are open and published by The Philippines government, but anyone can disagree with them, eh?
lol i can hear it now from the dramma qunes ,paul said he like the guys lol ,,,its was pop z ,regee ,an some other guy i watched ,befor i came over ,,,manilla sux to much trafic an sut ,i got home an looked like iwas in a coal mine ,,,
So sports is the name of the game Yes you must play sports right Paul. I've been to Thailand and they are gold diggers. Yes very much they are gold diggers. In my hotel room at Phuket thy go through my room looking and taking the coins and when I complained to the management they said it was the tips that you left for those girls. No Chance putting their hands through my stuff is not leaving tips.. Those girls were thiefts, Robbers in stealing my coins the girl was found on the ground falling off the 3 floor. The lord paybacks in many various ways.. Justice was served that day..
He never liked living in downtown Dumaguete that is why he is living in a house on the outskirts in Valencia... No "changing his tune", no "farce show" !
Why do you keep messing with the camera? Are you afraid someone is going to steal It. Try and relax like Paul does. Focus on your guest, not equipment. 🤔🥱

ah ok I see yeah I think the economy is growing rapidly
Very insightful. Thanks Aaron and Paul!
Yeah Aaron thanks for tuning in!
Aaron, leave the camera alone dude…it’s distracting…😂…great video anyhow and love the interview.
I didn't even notice. Meh.
Well gotta wake up the viewer and make sure they are watching ha
My favorite thing about the Philippines is "their sense of humor" ..
Oh yeah they do have a good sense of humor
More interaction with the local people and they will love you.
Phil economy is obviously growing in all positive directions.
Yeah but cars are very expensive here
Wealth disparity is also growing.
Paul is a freaking legend 🎉. Great interview, it is a little distracting when you’re checking the camera 🎥 so often. Just be conscious of it in the future bro ….❤🎉
The dog is a con artist has yas all sucked in!!!!
Yeah thanks for tuning in and reaching out!
haha no
very good ,,yall two ,,
Aaron, this is a great 💥 interview with Paul. 👍🏽
Hey Paul! 👋🏼
Hey thanks for tuning in Eric! People always call me Eric instead of Aaron
Right now Im going through what Paul did. I just got back from a 3 month trip all over Thailand. Ive been home now for 5 weeks. Not a day goes by that I dont think about my future plans to move there. 10 more years for me. Im 43
Wow 10 years well that is a lot of time to plan I think it will pay off in the end. Good luck to you
No Philippines 😮😮

haha well yeah of course they aren't in that climate.. they burn hard as well haha
Another nice interview Aaron...
thank you
The economy is booming in South East Asia, and the middle class is growing a lot.
"SE Asia" .. Not in Thailand (Google it) .. PI has been very good, but they have some headwinds .. Vietnam has probs, also r/t China Econ ..
Yes that is for sure!
@@aaronaround, after East Asia developed, now it's the turn of SEA, India etc
Philippines and Vietnam is getting richer. Somewhat because of businesses moving out of China. Poverty in Philippines is decreasing. Slowly, but improving. It's even more noticeable in Vietnam. More people can afford more "things" . It impacts the cost of living which always goes up with the ageless supply/demand.
Yes there is a lot of manufacturing leaving china and going to Vietnam

Hm I am not sure where that is
It's the vloggers. RUclips is paying pretty well.
They can... there is a lot of potential
❤❤❤
Awesome interview. You’re one of the best bloggers in the world 🌎 👍✌️Watching from Texas yeehaww
haha thanks for that cowboy! :0

I didn't even notice. Let people be who they are .. quirks and all. If it's distracting to you, then stop watching and just listen.
@@aaronbux1I don’t mean any harm to your brother, cousin or uncle I’m just trying to hand out some helpful criticism.
One other thing, at the beginning of the interview you made a few statements like you are just meeting Paul and it was difficult to wrangle him, and yet this is y’all second interview.
@@TandCinthePH Your apology accepted.
yeah Aaron I agree! haha
I have to agree, stop messing with the camera. It is distracting. Other than that, good interview.
Ah ok is it that bad?
Arron sure is very concerned about if the camera is still recording....keeps looking at it religiously. lol
well I am making a video haha

Unless you find a condo you like you will never be far from crowing roosters and motorbikes and trucks with non-working mufflers. Nowhere!
yeah I hear you there is some of that here
yeah this is true but some places have better windows than others... and you do get used to it after a year or so
This guy is a terrible interviewer. He's not even listening he's preoccupied.
yeah it's not easy
You are a one nervous interviewer
Anxiety is a horrible thing ha
haha I do look like it but there were many people walking around
yes it is
More interviews aaron i enjoy it i hope for your more subscriber
Thanks for tuning in! I appreciate it
"Thailand ranks 3rd for most Coups, with 13 Successful & 9 Unsuccessful Coups" ..
oh wow if those numbers are accurate that's interesting
The Philippines has only about 0.1% expat residents. Very little affect on the economy or prices.
Yea I agree with chuck thats not true at all...
Yeah I agree
@@MikeRotchich If, in those places, the rental owners are renting to expats, at expat quality, and expat prices, bringing expat money into the Philippine economy, what would be the complaint again ... ?
@@aaronaround I suppose anyone can disagree, of course. I looked up the stats which are open and published by The Philippines government, but anyone can disagree with them, eh?
To foreigners, just come here in P.I., no need to talk to that paul in dumaguete. He doesnt hold your future
It is good to meet fellow RUclipsrs in any city you go to
You’re doing it off the hip, but maybe just maybe you’re one of those guys who need to write a script.
Yeah there is some truth to that
you could eat off the airport floor in maylasa ,no kids begging ,verry nice but they finger print you trigger fingers at air port
Paul has developed quite a gut.
he is thin
@@aaronaround Not from what he used to be.
But Mae want to live in thailand
not sure
The music was really annoying
Haha 😂😂😂
Paul liked Thighland
I don't blame him haha
lol i can hear it now from the dramma qunes ,paul said he like the guys lol ,,,its was pop z ,regee ,an some other guy i watched ,befor i came over ,,,manilla sux to much trafic an sut ,i got home an looked like iwas in a coal mine ,,,
Why are you messaging like this are you trying to hide your identity haha
sound zero
yeah problems with my audio!
Those Filipinos works abroad and comeback
Yes that is a major source of investment
Don't go to Malaysia!
Malaysia is great
So sports is the name of the game Yes you must play sports right Paul. I've been to Thailand and they are gold diggers. Yes very much they are gold diggers. In my hotel room at Phuket thy go through my room looking and taking the coins and when I complained to the management they said it was the tips that you left for those girls. No Chance putting their hands through my stuff is not leaving tips.. Those girls were thiefts, Robbers in stealing my coins the girl was found on the ground falling off the 3 floor. The lord paybacks in many various ways.. Justice was served that day..
Oh jeez haha
Is that the same guy that hated Dumaguete. Why is he changing his tune now. What a farce show!
He was joking
He never liked living in downtown Dumaguete that is why he is living in a house on the outskirts in Valencia... No "changing his tune", no "farce show" !
did dirty paul take you to the glory hole
😂
two gay dudes
😂
Get help ..
Get a life
@@jones4334 Aaron laughed only your offended , strike a nerve sissy
@@jones4334you seem guilty , hit a nerve ?
Why do you keep messing with the camera? Are you afraid someone is going to steal It. Try and relax like Paul does. Focus on your guest, not equipment. 🤔🥱
Dude has bad anxiety give him a break!
I keep the screen on while recording
haha not really. appreciate it
