I Moved to the Philippines with $850,000.. 3 Years Later I Was Living in a Slum Begging for Help 🇵🇭

I lost $850,000 in just three years living in the Philippines. This is my complete, unfiltered story of what went wrong - the failed investments, the girlfriend scam, the business fraud, and how I'm rebuilding at 66 years old. I'm Marcus, 72 years old, and this is the story nobody tells you about retiring to the Philippines. In 2019, at age 58, I sold my successful HVAC business in Houston, Texas and moved to Manila with $460,000 in savings and $3,500/month in rental income. I thought I was retiring early to live my dream. Three years later, I'd lost nearly everything. 🔴 What I Lost: $850,000 total (investments, living expenses, opportunity costs) Failed condo flip: -$23,000 Pre-selling condo scam: -$320,000 (locked/lost) Land purchase for girlfriend: -$128,000 Business partnership fraud: -$100,000 Excessive living expenses: -$216,000 🎯 Who Should Watch This: ✓ Anyone considering retiring to the Philippines ✓ Expats thinking about property investment in Southeast Asia ✓ People in relationships with foreign nationals ✓ Retirees with $200K-$500K looking to stretch retirement funds ✓ Anyone interested in international real estate investing 💬 Leave a Comment If: You have a similar story (let's help each other) You're planning to move to the Philippines You have questions about what I learned You've successfully invested in the Philippines (share your approach!) ⚠️ DISCLAIMER: This is my personal story and experience.
