Living Abroad Vs Living In The Philippines?

[judgejury]

I like here in the Philippines. Even if I am in Denver Colorado

Make no mistake, general rule is mahirap buhay sa Pilipinas. Unless you're a businessman or at least a very upper-management employee, you will always be better paid in the US/EU compared to the Philippines.

 

Middle aged doctors and lawyers here on average earn about what, 60-70k/month? Never ka makakabili ng respectable bahay at lupa at that rate. Tapos sa US, they get an annual income of USD 140K on average.

I still prefer pinas

Abroad. Far away from Parasitic relatives.

[sir_kits]

pinas pa rin... kung saan naiintindihan ko ang topak ng mga tao... hirap makisama sa ilang lahi.

[chessboxin]

Besides the bigger paycheck, second advantage of living abroad is living away from your relatives. Alam mo naman kultura sa Pilipinas, kung may kamaganak kang alam na malaki kita mo, tatamarin magtrabaho. Iexpect mo nang sa iyo sila tatakbo for emergencies or even pang-tuition ng anak nila. One of the senior management in my old firm confided to me na hindi niya maramdaman na umangat siya sa buhay despite earning 200K/month kasi siya lang umasenso sa kanilang magkapatid. At nagbibigay pa rin siya sa mga kapatid niya until now.

 

It's a bit harsh and sad to hear but going abroad also allows you to leave your burdens behind and start a new life.

If given the chance to experience living abroad why not. But there is no better place than home ofc. Experience lang naman.
