⌛ Had enough in uk

Welcome!

:D Davy! Well I think you introduction just about said it all.
Jack P, here saying hello and welcome to DI. Get along to Robinsons Mall and there you will find a sales stand for Camilla homes.(Albeit another name) Personally I don't not know much about them but I hear they can run out very expensive. Here we say "Buyer Beware" depending on the capital you have buying your own Lot and building is far cheaper, although unless you have a pinay wife or serious G/F the land purchase is a No No. Check through the forum and you will find information you will need to settle here. Stay, enjoy and let us know of your progress.

it should be a no no anyway. why would you want to give conrol of your happainess and security to the whims of a wife or gf. dont forget most of the guys here at one time or another thought they had found the perfect mate in the west.things can turn quickly in a relationship , would you put your land in your wifes name in the west. i dont think so

 

Negative Thoughts!

Well Governor, Maybe some us have a little more trust and understanding of our Other halves, I have had mine a long time and she has never given me any doubts to her honesty. I guess to a degree, I can see your point of view but we Foreigners are not going to build a house without them. As with anything we do here, Homework is the key, More time finding out about a partner and less time Boozing and Socialising with other foreigners can yield a good result. We have heard many times here that there is not enough Integration with our hosts. Just so I can Quantify this Statement, apart from saying hello to a few, the last foreigner I spent any time with was when Azon and I, had lunch with PatO and Crislyn, that was some 3 weeks ago, I am sure that he also will agree, that the stories we hear about not trusting Pinoy Spouses are in the minority. Bad news travels fast.

Enthusiasm.

:D Davy! I like your enthusiasm, I will agree that having the drive to succeed is a key factor to success. I for one will lookforward to your progress reports. One thing I will just say though, some time ago, a very well respected member gave me some good advice here which, I will pass on to you, When it comes to transport and IT cafes, check and double check your competition and who runs what in the city, Toes are easily broken when trodden on and I have trodden on a few in the last 5 years. (Hope you get my drift) Also, be very carefull please with the amount of information you post, don't give too much away, we know for sure that certain powers read with interest this Site and poaching buisness is at a high level. Also the head of the LTO is an avid reader and he is one man you can not afford to cross.
Please don't take this as doom and gloom, just some friendly advice for you, I know that the majority of members here would wish you well in any venture and be only too willing to help all we can. As for the negative Doubters, forget them, they only raise their heads to start an argument.:D

I've got a better idea...one that will save you a few hundred thousand dollars. Get her to the UK...get her back into school for a nursing qualification...get her to work...save wisely...retire on your expanded nest egg - and holiday in the Philippines when you like...but always free to go back home anytime...The UK (been there many many times) is about one hundredth of the hassles and BS you are about to encounter if you pursue this...

 

Not very clear to me, investing in business in Carcar city while buying property in Dumaguete, hours apart from each other?

 

Be careful as to whom you chose to be your business partner.
The last time I checked, I was told that your wife could not be your mate and business partner.
However, I did hear that she could own it all and you could work for her.
You or someone else should check this out to see if it is as I have heard.
Truth is one hard commodity which is also hard to come by here, along with most other things one might want or need.
