    If the real estate prices in the Dumaguete region are climping further then the region will fall off being cheap. Fortunately there are still several cheap areas available in NegOr.

    And fortunately there are still plenty of young women who will tell old men they are gwapo.

    Unfortunately, a lot of South East Asia has been poisoned by Islam....and the rest doesn't speak very good English at the moment.

    Completely agree with that statement. A friend of me was forced to move to Cambodia because his low income was too low for living in Switzerland. (What is better? To have a free and decent life or to be shackled by the goverment and have a surviving life?) He had to learn Khmer language just to get around and basic communications. Cambodia is even lay more behind than the Philippines. But the opposite is that you can live quite decent on a budget of US$ 400 to 500. Most stuff is cheaper there than in the Philippines because Cambodia is not an island country.
    To come back ontopic: if the Philippines makes further things to scare off retiring people then even Dumaguete will fall back off.

    I used to believe them too. I could see all the girls at the mall "checking me out" below the waist line and I figured they were looking to see if my pants were bulging. Turns out they were. They were "checking out" my wallet pocket to see if it was bulging. Another fantasy bit the dust.

    I would agree if that wallet pocket don’t bulge, they aren’t going to care about other distortions in the waistline area, if any. Usually they can get what they need from their boyfriends or husbands and the old man is just the ATM. But in Dumsguete, maids are relatively cheap if you can find one who doesn’t steal your things...for 4K a month. Strictly an employee OF COURSE but very useful and much cheaper than the gold digger millennials.

    Silly, who do you think is paying taxes to support your retirement checks and benefits and serving in the military to fight for your freedom? Hint: it ain't the baby-boomers anymore. :wink:

    Oh, sorry about that! I admire American millennials; my two filam kids are in those ranks and they, and their friends, are awesome the way they make society move ahead. I wasn’t talking about THOSE millennials.

    Seriously, Thank you, all others in the military and government service and our veterans very much for helping to protect the rights and freedoms that I and my family enjoy. We have a great country. It was created in greatness and is protected in greatness. Most powerful country in the world. No brag, just fact.
