Room for rent sa Makati, Manila, Caloocan. Kung sa QC, room for rent dun malapit sa Cubap.

The main advantages/arguments of one over the other between house v condo is this: size v convenience.

Condo has land. The propert comparisons are: House v condo OR House and lot v Condo and lot

Bagsak market for almost a month now. Wiped out all gains the first 3 months.

I still prefer to retire sa squatter area. I lived most my life there so I'm comfortable and more importantly, truly blissful there, when I am with the poor folks. Masaya, salu-salo, bingo sa kalsada, inuman sa tabi, tambay sa kanto...I thrive on those. Walking without shirts and sometimes getting into fistfights with rival gangs or groups, over girls or perceived territories, or sometimes nakursunadahan lang. In the end, we stay together and are happy. This time, as I'm in my 50s, no more bedspacing. Instead Room-for-Rent. I'll rent the best one available sa squatter. I'll be bringing over stuff like TV, sound system, and electric fan, and also a nice mattress for the bed (no more of those thin foam mattresses). I may not eat pagpag but will eat at regular karinderias. I used to live with just 1 rice and half ulam. Then paluto ng Lucky Me noodle with egg ke manang.

There's just so much space in condo. House, you are limited. Condo goes far beyond.

Greenbelt is the best!

Sarap dyan sa BGC tumira. Yun lang fault line ang major concern ko dyan kasi malapit.

Sadly, we have no luxury beach town near Manila. We have El Nido but you have to fly and then there are scattered. Boracay is the closest but again it's not near Manila. Yung tipong you could live there. Think of a strip of 5 star hotel resorts and luxury residential resorts then a Greenbelt-like mall and lots of quality diners and spas around.

Snorkeling for me, relax lang. Then freediving now and then and back to snorkeling.

Progressive ka pala, LGBTQ kids gusto mo.

Di ako marunong magluto, di ako marunong tumugtog, di ako marunong mag-golf or mag-tennis. Ang alam ko lang kasi pumunta sa spa at magpaligaya ng theras kaya yun lang legacy na maituturo sa kids ko.

^ except the beaches. Kaya plano ko 6 months sa city then 6 months sa beach..

^Fully paid na ba house or still paying? Saang part ka bumili?

Condo by the beach is the best.

US is excellent for work but not much else. 10 years is good enough. It's not much but will give one stability to retire to Philippines, provided the person still works there for say another 15 years. I got in US for work in 2016. I think I will just complete up to June 2026 for full 10 years. I already bought my condo.

Condo all the way!

Right now, nothing fancies my taste. Hopefully in the future.

Ok na ko with condo in Hawaii.

14 - 2 boys, 12 girls.

Op kors intercors.

Maraming spas kaya there, there, there, there,....

Money for most of the year, then Lent Season, passion. 😅

I agree. But it's more for the benefit of your kids and maybe not even. Could be grandkids and their spouses and spouses' family. This is because by the time one has extra money for investment in land, pa-retire na. And then it takes 20 years or more before the price moves considerably higher (i.e., if it wasn't squatted on). Most lots don't move in 20 years or under. By that time it will be the kids who gets to enjoy your labor. Nothing wrong with that but I personally want to invest in a condo where I can enjoy it right away and at same time my kids who will inherit it. It will be totally different for people who already have inherited something at a young age from parents...like if they are already 2nd generation or older money. I'd invest in lots too if I were 2nd generation but alas, I have zero to inherit and have to start all from scratch (renting a room until I can buy my own condo).
