Popular Post OnMyWay Posted March 24, 2018 Popular Post Posted March 24, 2018 (edited) I was reminded on Facebook that 6 years ago today I walked out of my office for the last time, after 29 years with that company. 6 months later I was here in the Philippines! No regrets! My life is far better now, and much happier with my wife and kids! Edited March 24, 2018 by OnMyWay 8 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to have a wife and kids and be able to stay home and spend time with them rather than have a wife and kids and only see them on weekends due to working all the time. Good plan! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum Support Old55 Posted March 24, 2018 Forum Support Posted March 24, 2018 I left the house for work this early Saturday morning 4:45AM heavy wet snow ❄️ coming down like crazy. Your decision was wise. I’m really ready to get out now. The money 💴 is suductive but our time is more valuable as you have clearly pointed out. 🏝 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What month is it there? It is the end of March here. Springtime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum Support Old55 Posted March 24, 2018 Forum Support Posted March 24, 2018 Yes spring was Tuesday, any snow here is usually quickly turned to rain and gone. Like Steve and a few other forum members I need to stop working and begin living. Retiring is a big step forward and you’ve done well!!! Like you said spending precious time with your wife and children is what’s more important. Many members are on a modest budget and have found life IS GOOD living in Philippines 🇵🇭. It’s not all about the money it’s about enjoying life. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back then, although I was planning for the Philippines, I never would have thought that I would be sitting here tonight in Subic Bay, after bedtime, with insomniac little Leila, watching Cats vs. Cucumbers, while she has the hiccups? I wouldn't trade it for the world! Side note: She is getting away from calling all cats Blackie to only calling black cats Blackie! https://photos.app.goo.gl/Nc1XrMkAMOUlg4Lz1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
