Yep. I think the money lost is relative as it sound like he absorbed the loss with little difficulty. Some guys get duped out of their entire retirement stash and get kicked to the curb. I personally would have had to let her go after I found out but her having a child changes everything. She has the hooks in good. Her family coached her well.

Yep, for 250,000 +/- you can get a multicab. Which for me is much more preferable.

Hilarious)))) "Do we have better needles here in the Philippines or something." My favorite.

My wife and I are fully vaccinated. I know I will not be going back until ALL of the Philippines is quarantine free.

I thought it was a ransom note.

I tried explaining this to my wife. Judging from the look she gave me I might as well have been trying to explain the Theory of Relativity))))

My wife said. "Look the crown doesn't even fit her head." She was not a fan of Miss Mexico))). We both felt Miss Peru or Miss India should have won. Usually I don't have in interest in such things but when you are married to a Filipina your options are limited.)))

In my limited experience the only peace and quiet I had in the Philippines was when we stayed in a high rise condo. Whenever we stayed in a house, either in the province or the city, the environment was always noisy. I am struggling with this decision when we move there. I know my wife would rather live in a house in the province but I like the pre-covid convenience of condo living. Particularly I like to swim and exercise and it is much more convenient in a condo environment. Noise pollution is the biggest negative for me about living in the Philippines full time.

It is hard to put it into words, isn't it?))))

Oh Boy....

The boss is the designated long line stander. She seems to like it) I just go find a place to sit down and people watch.

I had planned on using the SRRV when I retire. But with this debacle it looks like it is the 13A for me.

Definitely "Still on Patrol." Too deep as Yeochief said.

G. You are living the dream.

When we are at her family home in the province my wife will gather the neighborhood girls together and play Chinese Garter (kind of a high jump-jump rope combo). My wife is in excellent shape for 33 so it provides motivation for me to stay in shape, too. I follow mostly a keto diet and it has a big positive effect on how I feel.
