Mike's Philippine Retirement

Mike’s Philippine Retirement

I’m Mike — 71, retired, and living in Dumaguete, Philippines. This channel is about the real experience of growing older abroad — the laughter, the loneliness, and the lessons learned along the way.

You’ll find honest stories about expat life, money, love, health, and the emotional side of starting over in a foreign country. No hype, no fantasy — just the truth about what it’s really like to grow old overseas, one story at a time:

Retiring overseas and Living on Social Security

Cost of living, Social Security, and income realities

Dating, marriage, and relationships in the Philippines

Health, aging, and unexpected challenges abroad

Cultural differences, expat mistakes, and hard lessons learned

Whether this life is right for you—or not

Some videos are stories. Some are warnings. Some are reflections.
