  • I sat down with Paul from the Old Dog Channel and had a genuine open conversation on where Paul had his heart set before finally settling down in the Philippines. For those of you who don't know retiring in the Philippines was not Paul's first choice as with many other foreigners who do settle in Dumaguete they may have had their sights set on other countries but do to language and culture barriers along with uninviting visa options many get driven to the Philippines. I will say it is a great place nevertheless :0. Join us as we go in depth on Paul's journey to the promise land!

    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 😄

HOWEvEr: I don't think I've seen anyone that looks so uncomfortable on their own channel than you in this episode. I am a big fan of Paul and his secret for lack of a better word, is that he makes you feel comfortable. He's easy going and he has a great personality. Watch it a few times and try to learn.

    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.

    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.

      @@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.
