Youtube drama, cancellations and demonetization cancel culture

Youtube has a history of cancelling creators or demonetizing them over political views. The most recent was Russell Brand. However, now the powers that be are going after travel channels that are not political showing cultures that Youtube deems inappropriate or not advertiser friendly. I feel that they should simply let the fans decide what they want to watch and what they do not want to watch without giving in to Cancel Culture. Now they deem Filipino food culture to be shocking and deserving limited reach and limited monetization. Really do not know why the world should not be exposed to the wonderful culture of the Philippines or other countries.

How much money do you need to live in the Philippines as an expat from a western country and still have a better life than you did at home? This video is where I answer that question based on my thoughts. You can survive on less, but is that why you really want to be in the Philippines as an Expat? Much of this depends on where you live. If you are planning on Manila your costs will be much higher than in the province or even in Davao.

Why I Chose Philippines 🇵🇭 as a Homebase over Thailand 🇹🇭

Why I Chose Philippines 🇵🇭 as a Homebase over Thailand 🇹🇭 In this video I go over the personal reasons that I chose to make the Philippines my home base in Asia, rather than Thailand. I have spent a lot of time in both the Philippines and Thailand. They are both great places to live. But in the end, the Philippines will be my home in Asia. The reasons are personal to me and may not apply to other folks. Family, school, costs, immigration visa issues, language, and a few others are what ultimately made the Philippines the right choice for me. So for now I am now an expat in the Philippines!
