I am so fortunate that Reekay (a.k.a Henry) granted my request to add some of his videos on this blog. 
In these videos, Henry talked about the MINIMUM amount of money an expat can get by on and live in the Philippines. Fortunately, one doesn’t need hundreds of thousands of dollars to live comfortably as an expat.
Personally, I must say this varies from one province/city/region to the other. One needs a bigger budget if an expat wants to live in Metro Manila.
Depends on how an expat wants to live his/her life.
Enjoy the videos.
