    Hey a video idea I really think will do well or could really help is
    How to travel in the philippines
    A longer video but explaining how to use the busses and finding them
    How to get tickets to ferry from island to island
    Understanding how locals (sometimes kids) work to help people find bus stops or tell you where stops move when there's construction.
    Chartering vans
    Pretty much anything having to do with travel outside of car and motorbike

      I don't think at all that you are "wrong" because every individual should decide for themselves what matters most in their lives. People are as different as priorities are (and that's completely OK).

    Question?...I want to book a flight from LAX to Manila, and go to other locations.
    I don't want to change flights for the return due to 30 day limits.
    Can I just booked flights with a 3-month or 4-month return, go straight to immigration in Manila airport? Request to go downstairs to extension office and get visa extension immediately on arrival.
    Is this the best way to do it? Or is there a better way.
    Things get complicated and expensive when you extend. Flight change fees, travel insurance confusion, dummy fake outbound flights.
    Can you please advise?

    Why would you run out of money could you not just live off capital gains from investment portfolio or trade the wheel strategy on the spy and live off the premiums? Add in your pension and you shouldn’t need to work with such a low cost of living. Also aren’t capital gains much lower than most western countries?

    Can you drop the “favorable exchange rate” argument? It’s not the exchange rate that determines the power of money. A ribeye steaks often costs 2000 pesos in the Philippines. The rate is just a system of metrics. Some goods are cheaper there, some other products are more expensive. It has nothing to do with the exchange rate. Obviously If the rate goes up, it’s better, but 1 dollar is 25 000 Vietnamese dong. So does it mean Vietnam is 500 times cheaper? No.

    Unless you don't give a yes about what other people think about ANYTHING, let alone their however sadly warped opinion concerning your present appearance.
    It's too hot, son, never been to the Philippines, but I can tell you from anywhere in the world outside of the Arctic Circle... no.

    Am clearly of a previous generation because I cringe at terrible sentence construction more so on a thumbnail. I made the mistake of bringing home a brand spanking new iPhone 14 pro max when it came out in April 2022 once quarantine was lifted and not flown home for five years due to Covid-19. I used it as a table clock because the Philippines did not have e-sim then. So not having wi-fi access is a must back home. Now there is a monthly prepaid e-sim so I can now use my latest cellphone.

      A foreign owning a property in the philippines is a big NO NO NO. Maybe you can have 100% ownership in your business and profit. But owning a land. Is a big NO NO. Influx of Chinese would buy the lands. And grentrified it. Right now even mainland chinese fake their citizinship just to buy land here. So its a big no no..
