When you're in your late 50's and a 19 year old girl wants to date you.  Hint it's going to be for your  money.

1st rule living in the Philippines, NEVER EVER let anyone know how much income you have.

The worst for a man is when he has no friends to talk with or advise, so thanks Paul for being a friend to John and helping him out off camera.

I'm disappointed with the people attacking this guy. He is telling so much about himself and the bad things that can happen to lonely Americans in the Philippines and is giving thousands of men a dose of reality to avoid his mistakes. It's so painful. Be kind.

I was sober for 15 years before I watched this video.  From the beginning to the end…. The stress is just too much for me to handle.
Men:  learn to live alone, and learn to love and respect yourself.  Women are a nice addition, but they are not needed.  No matter your age, remember that you are a King.  All by yourself.  Sending a big hug to you all.

A classic example of "Just because he's old, doesn't mean he's wise."

Here is the problem: even if I would consider trying to help this guy financially for the next 17 month, I’m convinced he would continue to help his girl, and even her mother. He’s been taken advantage of and it will unfortunately never stop. For that reason alone, no money in the world would be enough and it would put me in the poorhouse as well in the end.

I followed the whole sad story about John and Diana and kids.  John seems like such a good guy.  My heart went out to him and his dreadful situation.  The truth is, John got hustled by Diana and her parasitic family for every penny he had. Then, of course, she got pregnant.  I will pray for John.  He will be preyed upon again by these people.   Good Luck !

I get a distinct feeling that this guy will take any money he receives and give it away to the very people that are treating him like trash.

I have been traveling to the Philippines for 16 years and lived over there as a young American guy. I tried a few businesses and dated around. BEST advice I can give anyone thinking about going over there... Go with the intention of spending no money or as little money as possible no matter what. Also, do not move in with ANYONE, not with locals, foreigners, girlfriends or anything of the such. Keep your personal life separate. People with little or no money will do what they can to drain your pockets in any part of the world.

When poverty walks in the door love flies out the window.

This brings back a lot of memories as I encountered a similar situation. I ended up parting with not only my savings of about US 80K but also my career before  it was all over. Even worse, I wasted more than 7 years devoted to a Woman in PH. Once I caught her cheating & cut off the allowance funds EVERYTHING changed. I’m very happy that I survived. Sadly, I had built a fully functional ranch & I am ashamed that I had to just walk away from all the animals I raised there. If I’d have fought for my rights (what rights)????and those of the animals I’d have likely ended up dead or even worse in prison. Once your Filipina proclaims you’re the bad guy, you’re screwed. It’s true what they say, you can’t change the Philippines it changes you… for better or worse.

100% emotional ( and physical)  abuse. He has to beg for rice? And he still believes in her? Poor man has lost himself. Very sad. Amazing interview.

Living proof you can be 58 and have the life skills of a 20 year old!

This guy has zero boundaries. He is also pursuing relationships with women decades younger than he is. 🚩

This guy was so taken advantage of….sorry to hear. I could tell this guy is such a nice guy.  His girl and her family will never treat this guy well.  Hope he stays ok.. he deserves better

I’m a Filipino living here in Japan, my advice for many expats or retirees going to the Philippines is don’t date a girl quickly when you arrive there, just chill for a few months enjoy your stay before dating someone. And also if you date someone don’t buy them something expensive or don’t spoiled them.

As a Filipino, I feel the need to caution foreigners who plan to marry a Filipina. It's unfortunate, but I believe that the majority of Filipinas from poor to lower-middle-class backgrounds are primarily interested in foreigners for their financial resources. It's important to be aware of red flags, such as frequent requests for money. If you notice this behavior, it's best to distance yourself from her and leave..lol. While there may be some Filipinas who are primarily interested in foreigners for their money, there are also many wonderful and genuine Filipinas out there who are looking for love and companionship. If you do happen to find a legitimate and trustworthy Filipina, it can be like hitting the jackpot. So, while it's important to be cautious and aware, it's also important to keep an open mind and heart.
