Ralph:4)Crime is everywhere... nasa diskarte mo ang precautions. if ur a showoff then ur an easy target. So be discrete and be humble... at least try, mahirap gawin yan pag marame ka ng pera...

5)bakit ba maraming foreigner ngayon dyan? coz' they can get a lot of fun from the currency they bring in than in any other place. sila pa nga itong nag-ma-migrate dyan sa atin!
hmmm...dun sa 4.) kasi, me kilala auntie ko, ubod ng yaman, pero they lived a very humble life -- as in parang middle income famiily lang, small house in a class C-D municipality, one very old car...ni katulong wala! one day someone called them up demanding millions or me masamang mangyayari sa kanila.

how did they find out? probably an insider who has access to the bank account info.


sa point 5.), yes, totoo yan, pero tingin ko it's more because of the 53:1 peso-dollar exchange rate. biro mo, you could be middle income in the states, pagdating mo dito e virtual hari ka na B)

...pero i do agree with you, it would be nice to retire here -- just not in manila B) cebu or negros perhaps B)
