Hi everyone, I'm late on this forum here in 2022, downsizing and selling upi here in Qld Australia, my Pinay girlfriend lives in Sogod and I'm interested in how Expats are doing there.

I'm open minded and adaptable but want to enjoy a comfortable retirement in Phils partnered up with my lovely Pinay, have debts, live a quite lifestyle and on the top rung Army Veterans TIP pension and benefits.

Any up to date advise is appreciate.

Do you want to have depts in the Philippines???    :)
The interests are MUCH higher in the Philippines than in our home countries, e g
/The CHEAPEST interest I have seen with real estate as collateral is 6.5 % per year, common is up to 14 %. The LONGER loan period, the HIGHER interest!!!
/"5-6" ( = The most common loan.)  Recounted to year interest its roughly 480 % ...
