    I like this apartment and it's at a great price for those who want to have a "base" location and travel to other places. I also agree with doing the hotel stay for 2 months when one first arrives to check things out and find a more permanent location for a place to live so one doesn't get stuck with living a year in a place they end up not liking.

I wouldn’t pay $25 to go swimming at home! I’d probably pay that at home for swimming and a gym - but I don’t recall ever doing both in one day. Anyway, yet another great interview guys.

    Dan, the apartment in this video would not rank up there as a place most expats would live in for any length of time. It might be cheap, but it is a 2 room place (living/kitchen and bedroom) that most people would find depressing. Th reality in Dumaguete is that 22,000 to 25,000 pesos is probably the base rent for a decent furnished place, and even higher in Valencia. Cheers

    Probably the electricity is cheaper in negros? I had air con too and once I paid almost 100$ a month but I had to turn it off often during the day. I was in Cebu province. Anyway as you know it's possible and very nice to live in the Philippines for not so much money at all. I also spent a total of 1200$ a month everything included and that includes for my Filipino wife and we have a kid together. I also spent 560$ all included(food and drinks too) in the past but it was not comfortable at all.

    So if you keep your food at about $200 a month (which is reasonable) then with $320 for everything else, don't tell me you can't live there on about $500 a month. I didn't say travel, buzz, and everything else. I said just as a minimum, it can be done.

    Exactly. I have lived on less than $500 a month here in America for decades so I don't know why these people have to spend so much money over there. And I want for nothing. But I also love to cook at home, and I spend.less than $100 a month on food and I need to lose weight! Over there I will spend probably $50 a month on food, and $100 a month rent (they are out there all over) when all is said and done. I will probably be around $300-$350 a month there. Some people just have too much money and try and find ways to waste it.

    ​@@jackbaldwin3649 I understand. I am just a musician that got close to making it big, but never did. I don't have a pension, etc like most of you. I have rich friends that have always lived high on the hog, but I just always traveled. I finally decided I should buy some land, so I did, just a cheap acre. And decided solar would be better than an electric bill, and it is. Most Americans don't do that. I grew up in Alaska living off the land, etc. So the transition to the Philippines won't be as hard for me. I am happy with little here in New Mexico, and will have more there. I have had many things in my life, but the only thing that ever seemed to really matter was happiness. And it took me far too long to realize, that happiness is the only thing we cannot buy. Because it's not for sale. It's a completely different thing, and level. And one that we must each find for ourselves.

    I live in Cebu with my PH wife; doing great with a budget of 8K for rent, 4K for utilities, 26K for food and living. Then you need to budget for medical, furniture, vehicle, vacations, family tax. You need six months emergency too. Cheaper in providences, but then harder to get the stuff you need. And harder to get your money in a providence. Make sure you have two or three separate bank accounts already set up in the US before you leave. Best to move to the big city first, then jump to a quiet place in a province where you can plan on making trips for supplies. Need lady for communications and living.
