I've Watched Expats Retired Broke in the Philippines @paulinthephilippinesolddog9234 Watching men arrive here with high hopes only to see them struggle is the hardest part of my expat life. At 71, I have seen many people come and go. It breaks my heart to watch men pack up their entire lives to move overseas with a modest nest egg, only to realize the reality of the situation too late. This isn't about discouraging anyone, but about being honest regarding the financial pressures that often go unspoken.
