hi i currently live in huntington beach and am seriously considering moving there. i travel there quite often and when i was there in december, i had met a girl who i fell in love with. i had gone back again in march and spent a month with her. now i am back in california and i am not really content here. i miss her a lot, and all i can think about is her. i know that cost of living is a lot lower there and we as americans with dollars can live a nicer life, but all i have experienced is how it feels to vacation there. i have no idea what living there would be like. it wouldnt be just all play and spending money like crazy when im on vacation.
i have a home based business that i run here and i make about $2400/month in residual income. after i deduct some expenses i have about $1200-1500 to spend on living expenses etc. that is just residual income that i get every month whether i work or not. if i make more sales, i make commissions and bonuses so i can make more money. i can do this business from there but i am afraid that i wont be able to close as many deals since i can not meet with clients face to face. i am currently working on that to see how many i can close without meeting with any of them. if things go well, then i will definitely move there sooner than i plan to. i plan on moving there hopefully by august or september if things go according to plan.
i would like to get your guys' opinion and thoughts on what your experience is there so far and any advice you can give me.
what made u decide to move to the philippines?
now that you have lived there for a bit, do you feel you made the right decision?
what do you miss most about home?
what do you like there better than the states?
if you were in my position, what would u do?
where would be a good source to find a condo to rent? i heard that using an agent would equal higher rents.
any other advice you can give me would be great.
thanks again for any help or advice you can give me. i feel so lost and scared, but yet excited at the same time.
