That's a lesson to everyone-if you go to Philippines and introduce a western lifestyle to your filipina girl/family, build them houses, fed with money they haven't dare to dream, of course you will go broke sooner rather than later.

I asked my inlaws before I got involved with their daughter what financially would be expected of me since i was taking my wife away from them and she was helping them with her job. They said i didn't need to give them anything if i didn't want to. I wanted to get my mother in-law a refrigerator after i visited and noticed she didn't have one. She shared with her sister in-law next door. It took my wife 3 months to finally get her one. Her Dad got hurt at work. Needed help with a motorcycle payment. We just paid it off. I have never been asked for anything again. They're all good people. I love my inlaws in Leyte. The aunts are funny. They treat the foreigner well.

Tim just a suggestion, I did the same, paid rent for storage for a couple years. Then my dad said, why don't you sell it. Its getting old and you can buy the stuff again. Add up the total amount for rent, here 48mo. X 400 = 19,200 dollars! Thats a lot of furniture. Just a suggestion! Best regards Brian M.

In California, it takes 3 minutes to renew your drivers license online and 3.5 minutes to renew your vehicle registration online. No need to go to the DMV at all in most instances. But in Los Angeles, there are still lines to wait on if you do go in person, but not the nightmare that it was when I arrived 40 years ago before the internet came along and assumed all of these basic tasks.

I know what you mean. It takes so long to do stuff in the Philippines, simple stuff like a drivers licence, or even changing ownership of a car which in my country takes 5mins online, But PH it can take up a whole day of waiting in cues, go there fill this out, go here to get it stamped, go back there to verify, get your photo taken with your car, make a trip to the bank to pay a fee, return with the stamped receipt, each process with a long cue and a long wait, before you know it the day is gone. But it does employ a lot of people with all the hoops you have to jump through. It teaches you patience, which is a good thing.

Even with all of our imperfections in business, things do manage to function better than a lot of other countries.

Another lesson I learned many years ago is "DO IT IN PERSON". I found many years ago that it is harder for one to tell you "NO" in person than on the phone or via email and that's provided you approach them with an attitude that signals "I NEED HELP".

Yeah rent is definitely cheaper, because most buildings are constructed out of bamboo or plywood and have no bathtubs and rarely appliances, even a proper shower is not common outside of a condo or hotel…but unless you’re eating the cheapest possible food known to man you can easily expect to pay as much or more than in the US.

It is hard to realize that all the hype of the US is best, is just that, a hype.

Yes, that's a fact. They discriminate foreigner as well they think they ĥave lots of money. Grab him. So to speak, your words are true.😢 😢
Unless you and your girl have a KZhead channel
not all.
No all filipinos are like that most who are here in usa are hard workers
When you want a girl younger than you that happen also when you act like you have money and give it to your asian girlfriend
I asked my inlaws before I got involved with their daughter what financially would be expected of me since i was taking my wife away from them and she was helping them with her job. They said i didn't need to give them anything if i didn't want to. I wanted to get my mother in-law a refrigerator after i visited and noticed she didn't have one. She shared with her sister in-law next door. It took my wife 3 months to finally get her one. Her Dad got hurt at work. Needed help with a motorcycle payment. We just paid it off. I have never been asked for anything again. They're all good people. I love my inlaws in Leyte. The aunts are funny. They treat the foreigner well.
i like the Fillipinos of Leyte the most, my wifes from Ormoc
Tim just a suggestion, I did the same, paid rent for storage for a couple years. Then my dad said, why don't you sell it. Its getting old and you can buy the stuff again. Add up the total amount for rent, here 48mo. X 400 = 19,200 dollars! Thats a lot of furniture. Just a suggestion! Best regards Brian M.
Emotions sometimes get in the way of sound decision making
@@TimKyoutube I could buy a nice house in Mindanao for what I wasted on storage in USA.
Everytime I think goings to storage 1st month rent cost more then stuff is worth. SALVATION army donation time
Hey Tim, I've not checked in on the channel for a short while but I'm happy to hear you reconnected with your Dad thats amazing! Safe journey back to the Philippines 🙏
Welcome back, Tim
@TiMK6 Welcome back home Tim. This is Don Green I offered you my truck during a typhoon Disaster. I am In florida my wife is still in the philippines
i returned to the us broke also, after 5 years in PI, i arrived in los angeles without a penny, i borrowed money from my family to go to denver then PA, i worked 11 months and managed to save enough to come back to my wife and kids and keep us alive until social security starts. its an odd scary feeling being stranded in los angles dragging your luggage beside homeless people dragging luggage.
but...i guess you weren't really broke since youre going back already ?
Denver is becoming a zoo like LA, but at least we can earn a lot and take care of our loved ones in Philippines. I was astonished at the deranged and doped living in LAX.
eating out in ph manila cost me around 11k per day Sana All
Hey Tim, good to see you checking in, I'm sure your family has enjoyed your visit it must seem a bit surreal walking around on the beach at your former home turf. Safe travels back to the Phils.
Great to watch you grow with your family. I first watched you during COVID after following Bald and Bankrupt and Harald. Harold introduced your channel and I have followed since. It's been a wild journey you have been on, you have show how paradise can be lived. I would love to show my family such a beautiful place ❤️
i’m happy to hear that you’re back (i’ve been off social media for a while due to medical issues) for sure i have lots of your videos to watch)❤
We were waiting for you Tim K 😊Love the pictures and the beach!!!
Have a safe trip home. Hope to see you soon over there. God bless your faith, you and your family
Your sarcasm is very nice touch to your videos. Keep the sarcasm coming
Nice video update Tim ! You look refreshed. Im glad you got to spend time with your parents .
Just keep being you ! Love your family/ love yourself proud of you keep doing these videos it’s great for you and the true fans of you and your family 👊
Thanks Tim, glad you made it back. You accomplished much in your travels and it has made you a better more worldly person.
Beautiful place Tim!
Awesome video Tim, thanks
Welcome back man. Good luck to you.
Tim, all I can say is the Philippines 🇵🇭 rocks ! The USA is nice but also not perfect 🇺🇸 I'm enjoying my life now in Angeles City met many incredible people, hope your reunited with Your wife Krissy and son Dale,, God bless
I'm thinking of moving to Clark next year. I hear the Phil government is dumping a lot of money into the city. I can imagine it being a candidate for a future olympics
He will need a full completed STDs test first. If I was the wife, I wouldn't even drink in the same glass as he drinks. When they come from those countries and had contact with hoes, they maybe nasty and contaminated
@@coreyh7323 dumping Money? Where? Lol
It's been awhile since I watched your channel. Nice to see you visiting Newport Beach and your dad. I will miss seeing Chrissy & Dale. In July I will be celebrating my 50th wedding anniversary with my wife, adult kids and grandkids in Oahu, Hawaii. All the Best, Robert
Those wave photos are magnificent! 🤩
Nice to see a new video from you👍🏻 All the best to you and your family🌻
It’s really more fun, food (fresh & healthy) and friendly in the Philippines. Culture of love ❤️ and slow relaxing pace of life compared to the western countries. The best thing about life is enjoying and learning new ways to be stress free and be among your family and love ones!Contentment & fulfilled life. ❤️🙏The best things in life is free. Keep it sweet and simple ❤️❤️🇵🇭
That beach photography was epic.
It was really nice! Like very good ❤
I agree with you .
Actually how I got 10,000 followers in instagram before YT
Beautiful pictures Tim You have a good eye for photography
Hi Tim. Good to see you made it back and sorting things out... I'm also home again. Thanks for everything 🙏❤👍
That’s great to hear you got there safe and enjoying some QT with the family here in the U.S. May you be blessed more with Krissy and Dale
I retired 7 years ago. I was tired of the different BS in the states. You have to pay the price to roll the dice there. I worked 52 years, and still don't know how I made it there. I like the slower pace here in Cebu. Good luck to you Bro..
What did you retire from?
@@questioneverything594 Retired from all the bullshit in the states
Where I Cebu?
@questioneverything594 The department of Veterans Affairs..
@@rgasta7765 Talisay City, a suburb on the south side of Cebu City.
Glad to see your back Tim enjoy your time here!
Happy Father’s Day to you and yours. Thanks for sharing.
Nice to see you back in Cali bro.. Enjoy your time there before your return to the Philippines!
Your humor is a big part of why I watch your channel! The photos you shared are f'ing epic BTW. Welcome back to California Tim (from a dude in the mountains above Santa Cruz). Although I'm kinda' considering FL....
I love it up there. Used to do summers at mt hermon.
Bro great video. Nice, to be back home for a while keep up the good work my man 😊
looks like the tide is rising tim,glad everything turned out good for you,aloha from hawaii,you a good man,ya got a good heart,keep on what ya doing,prayers for you and your ohana that you,ll have a propourous year to come and a better one the next year,god bless
You’re definitely right about sarcasm. My brother-in-law is married to a Filipina as I am, and both of us have discussed this. My wife does get my sarcasm, even though I do have to explain other kinds of jokes that are based on American experiences. Blonde jokes usually require explanation, for example.
Americans discovering sarcasm for the first time.... how funny is that
The Beach of California is probably better than the beaches in Asia. This looks so MEGA EPIC.
They are except for the lack of coconut trees, and around the San Francisco bay area the water can get awfully cold. Still beautiful the sand is golden with no valcanic rock, gray dirt or corral. No privately owned beaches allowed either The California Constitution guarantees public access to California's coast (Article X, Section 4). The longstanding California Coastal Act mandates “maximum access, which shall be conspicuously posted” to carry out the constitutional requiremen
Nice video Tim!
Safe travels Tim 🍻
I have always loved your humor, bro! I had no idea so many people were missing it, lol. Wow. And your photography was as good as Clark Little!! I was not expecting that in a million years, freaking killer! 🤘
Strange to see you in a jacket 😁 I’m glad you got to go back and get stuff done and see your family again Tim
Great vlog Tim beautiful beach, looking forward to seeing you back with Chrissy and Dale xx
Glad you came Home. Wishing you the best of luck.
New Port beach on 4th of July is crazy fun AF!!!
Keep up the jokes your way! It's how you like to poke fun at things or point things out! Those of us that get it are your true target audience:)
Amen Joe. Thanks 🤙
Welcome back and happy you enjoyed family time in Cali. Good luck
Hope all is well Tim! Life is getting tough these days, so I hope u recover soon.
Yes a video update! Our family is always sarcastic and I recognized that in you straight away. Some of the faces Chrissy makes reminds me of me when my husband(of 36 years June 12) makes sarcastic comments like you do. I can only give my own smirk. Praying your trip was as uneventful as can be and your reunion with Chrissy and Dale was fantastic(and you recorded it lol). Take care K family! Love from southeast Florida.
Welcome back🇱🇷
Awesome Tim glad your having a somewhat of a good time my Friend, that sunset 👀
Great update ! I had commented earlier on your instagram we need a video...and come over to youtube & there it is ! safe travels !
Nice video Tim, you look so happy to see your family after 4 years and I'm sure they missed you too. Life in the US is so much different than the Philippines that's for sure. I just renewed my Drivers License and it took about 10 minutes with no waiting!! Stay safe and looking forward to the next video!!
In California, it takes 3 minutes to renew your drivers license online and 3.5 minutes to renew your vehicle registration online. No need to go to the DMV at all in most instances. But in Los Angeles, there are still lines to wait on if you do go in person, but not the nightmare that it was when I arrived 40 years ago before the internet came along and assumed all of these basic tasks.
Hey, that's a great video - you really have conveyed the longing and nostalgia for your natural habitat there in the USA! I am from the US and Canada - but live in Sri Lanka . . . and I feel the same emotions for the world back there - which I don't know if I shall ever see again. I hope to. And I really appreciate what you say about language, nuance, and a conveying a sense of humor! . . .it really is a challenge isn't it? I am planning to go to the Philipines - just to visit and see this Dumagete place that everyone is talking about , , , really, just to experience the community . . sit around and talk to people like me for awhile . . . I don't get to do that much here. It's my own fault I suppose . . .if I had been smarter and more successful . . . I TOO would be able to pay $60 for a Burritto in NewPort Beach!! (Wow). Maybe will see you in the Philipines ! Cheers!
Best Of luck for the new journey in life. Wish you all the luck.
I think you noticed the cleanness and the tidiness of the beach no barking dogs or noisy tricycles or street sidewalks with life-threatening tripping traps.
Extremely unaffordable and unneighborly. Too much hostility in the states, especially California!
Have a great time at the home ground, Tim
Hi Tim. I'm currently retired in the Philippines along w/ my filipina soul mate of 31 years. We've been here in Muntinlupa City for 14 months now. Thanks for the memories of Newport Beach. My wife and I used to enjoy walking the boardwalk between the Balboa and Newport piers where I can tell you filmed this.
We love you Tim. Enjoy your to the States!
Thank you Tim for speaking of USA and how well oiled it is. Lots of people Foreign or in Country complain to much. America is truly a great Country.
I laughed at your observation that "things work here". (I say here because I came home from Cebu a few weeks ago). That was one of my biggest complaints there - nothing worked !
You surely answered my question as to how long you were planning on be back in the states. Safe travels back out buddy!! And thx again for the update
Great video Tim I am glad you had a great time with your family. The beach looks nice there. 2 thumbs up my friend!!!!
I currently live in Newport but looking to relocate to Philippines in the future. Keep up the good content!
I know what you mean. It takes so long to do stuff in the Philippines, simple stuff like a drivers licence, or even changing ownership of a car which in my country takes 5mins online, But PH it can take up a whole day of waiting in cues, go there fill this out, go here to get it stamped, go back there to verify, get your photo taken with your car, make a trip to the bank to pay a fee, return with the stamped receipt, each process with a long cue and a long wait, before you know it the day is gone. But it does employ a lot of people with all the hoops you have to jump through. It teaches you patience, which is a good thing.
Welcome back, Tim. I am proud to have you back in my lovely OC, Cali.
I want you to stay in California, you seemed very happy in this blog, this is my first time to see and hear you, it was very interesting to hear everything you’ve been up to. Please bring your family back with you, then you can enjoy being with your parents again!!😊
Glad you are coming back to beautiful laid-back Philippines. May God grant you much love and happiness with your family & friends there.👍🎆💎🕊️💎🕊️
What laid back ur talking about,why so pissed off of my country that much, BITTER?We have everything there just like u got but you don't have the natural beaches & places like us.
MORE THAN LIKELY WILL NOT RETURN.
Tim, welcome back to the sunshine state called California. There is no place on earth like the great USA 🇺🇸 to me …
It's called the "Golden State". The "Sunshine State" is Florida. Although it has gotten pretty dark there.
Great vlog Tim
Thks for sharing Tim. Hopefully one day I can visit home in Michigan from La Trinidad 😊
My thoughts on the way things "work" in Philippines is that everything and every situation has 1 thing that's off...its like a rule there. It can be very frustrating I agree.
Glad that you're able to see your family here in the USA again. I'm sure your parents are very happy. When I sold my house l've shipped most of my furniture, appliances and household by container. It was cheaper than having a storage for $500 per month and my family was able to used and enjoyed them. It cost me 6K for 20X10 and saved a lot of money instead sitting in storage tooked only 3 months to arrived in the Philippines.
Looking to doing the same in 3.5 years. Could you share the company you worked with in shipping your household goods? What about custom tariffs, red tapes, other fees when your goods arrived in the Philippines…? Please share some insights. Thanks!
Our Plan B is to just sell and/or giveaway everything and just move with our suitcases. Probably cheaper. Haha!
@@Bigfishead59 good for you! That is likely what we will do. I just have to let go of emotional attachments to things.
@@Bigfishead59 totally agree.
I agree. My relatives left their stuff in storage for years and years losing money. In the end they went broke and we had to donate/throw away so much stuff. Storage is for losers.
Thanks Tim!
Great video Tim you will be OK my freind best wishes
It same in England many of my Filipino friends have perfect OP English accents very posh and nice, oh yeah the Philippines can be boring as you won't get to talk on a level to which we are accustomed with people generally! It is very important in any relationship to wait for the right one there otherwise your brain will not be stimulated. I was basically away from England since 1996 and lived in the Philippines, Bahrain, and Abu Dhabi. I got back to the UK last year and can't believe how things have changed. No one uses Cash. I went to Makati after the lockdown and most of my favorite places closed down..Cafe Havana has gone, and so many memories are now confined to the past.
Thats sad to hear Cafe Havana has closed. I danced many nights away in that place. Thanks.
That’s so funny. I’ve been with my Filipina for 2 ½ years but she was born and raised in Orange County. I’m used to Filipina nurses and their accents, so when I first spoke to my GF I was shocked to hear a normal “valley girl” voice without accent. All of her older siblings still have the accent. She’s the baby and the one American born child they had.
Hang in there Tim, been watching for a long time🙂
Tim . . . Blessings to you on your new journey. ❤❤
Tim, great video.. I am going back to Chicago in a few months and you brought up so many things that I need to be appreciative of as a US citizen. Sometimes we forget how fortunate we are, even when things don’t seem to be going well as a whole. I am all in on the Phils, but I am an American first… thanks for your perspectives.
I totally agree.
400$ for a storage unit is 🤯 to me, the same amount you pay for the rent of your house in Samar.
Welcome back to the USA. The beaches are sure wide and beautiful in California. Beach showers are great. Useful.
Welcome back Tim 😊
Even with all of our imperfections in business, things do manage to function better than a lot of other countries. The biggest problem is that Americans tend not to appreciate how well things work here because this is the only system they have ever had to deal with. Another lesson I learned many years ago is "DO IT IN PERSON". I found many years ago that it is harder for one to tell you "NO" in person than on the phone or via email and that's provided you approach them with an attitude that signals "I NEED HELP".
Tim, you are not broke. You got it made man.
Been with you since the start. Loving your style. And your humor.
Great show Tim. Good to see you getting all your stuff done. Have a great day
Welcome Back to Cali timoy! Philippines is training ground to have a longer patient.
Hi Tim, I assume that your parents live in Newport Beach. If so, we are neighbors. My husband and I still maintain a house in Irvine which is contiguous to Newport Beach. We moved to Summerlin, Las Vegas, Nevada to retire. We just go back and forth (Irvine, Ca. and Summerlin, NV). You mentioned that in the PH, you live in Leyte. I was born and raised in Tacloban City, Leyte, PH. I still have a family in Leyte. Our family used to own a Furniture factory and store and also a Trucking business in Tacloban but the businesses closed when the elders passed away and nobody wants to continue the heritage/legacy. Where in Leyte do you live?

Hope you had a good time at home , have a good trip back Tim !!
You look so happy! Glad you had a good trip!
Hey Tim. I’ve been living in the Philippines for the past two years and expecting my first child and yeah my finances have become pretty well depleted too. It’s really not that much cheaper in the Philippines at all. Especially when you factor that medical care and food costs in to it with no government assistance in to it. And things definitely don’t work here.
Food and housing is way cheaper in the Philippines unless you are in BGC, Makati or Cebu. But I can find condos or home in the Philippines that are nice for $750. Newport is $4-5K and food is crazy. I can eat for the price you tip in CA. So I don’t understand
@@larrykarger6930 But those hospitals stays.
@@mikeikes524 condos are cheaper. Stay clear of the hospitals
Changed the subject...🤣
@@larrykarger6930 Food is really not that much cheaper unless you get used to eating the staple fish and rice 3 times a day. Many foods cost MORE here than it does in the US. Yeah rent is definitely cheaper, because most buildings are constructed out of bamboo or plywood and have no bathtubs and rarely appliances, even a proper shower is not common outside of a condo or hotel…but unless you’re eating the cheapest possible food known to man you can easily expect to pay as much or more than in the US. Personally I struggle with the low protein diets most Filipinos live on. Just one of their rice and veggie meals leaves me feeling weak and hungry for hours.
So funny -- I live in Japan and am also from California. In terms of medical and civil stuff like Drivers License Japan is so nice. Everytime I visit Cali I feellike its just so stressful. I miss Mexican food and outdoor activities.
Hell yeah Newport Beach is awesome. Love it there. Have a meet and greet Tim.
TIM IM REALLY GLAD YOU GOT TO GOT BACK AND SEE YOU FAMILY, I NO ITS BEEN A WHILE AS I REMEMBER YOU SAYING IN A VID A COUPLE YEARS AGO, YOU CERTAINLY LOOKED HAPPY ENOUGHT, RESPECT FROM ~#SCOTLAND
We want more USA videos!!
Tim, i found that video so "refreshing": (no garbage strewn around, no crowing roosters, noisy motorcycles, etc). And you looked healthier, younger, and of positive energy. Cheers.
The design is haters of the philippines😅
yeah, no homeless shit on the sidewalks or needles strewn about or criminals looting stores, kissass
Tim, you say it how it is! Whatever you say or do, i find it interesting. You always speak slowly & clearly. love that. can’t believe how cold & deserted Newport beach looks on a Summer eve. and no high rise! however, i’m from Australia & not been there. Nice to stay with your parents, mybe nearby. wish you had made more vids of your USA trip. looking forward to when you go there with Chrissy.
Cool. Glad you had a great time home, got to find some unexpected appreciation for being home. It's important to do that. Keep up the great vlogging! Wishing you all the best and a safe trip home as you go back to your other home in Leyte, with Chrissy and Dale! Enjoy the good life!
Always liked Newport the best, Laguna was my 2nd best. But that was back in 1975 - 77.
Always better with less people. I used to go to strand beach in the early 90s
I was involved (and am) in the Philipino community in the USA also, visited the Philippines. Love the them and the country. Now I am living half in USA and half in Portugal. When I come back from Portugal I have the apposite experience. I am stunned how much Portugal is easier and more organized than the USA in so many ways. It is hard to realize that all the hype of the US is best, is just that, a hype. Was really thinking about moving to the Philippines, but decided against it mostly for the 3 reasons/problems you mentioned in one of your more recent videos.
Avi, interesting perspective. care to expound on the 'hype'? Curious, because I was stationed in Japan for almost 5 years back in the '80s, my wife of 32 years is from Japan. I've experienced a bit of 'disillusionment' with America upon my return, so honestly curious about your perspective - and I know nothing about Portugal, so go easy on me.
Portugal is amazing, Europe in general is better than all the Anglo countries. Better train infrastructure, less reliance on cars, more walkable cities etc
what 3 things?
Wow finally your home enjoy Dale and Krissy will miss you
Hey time hope you been good brother quick question do you still need to be covid vaccined to enter CA allways been my dream to visit
