Ahhh, ignorance raises it's ugly head again. It amazes me at those so jealous of others keep repeating stories with only a bit of truth to them, but speak as if it is a sensational situation. I see much jealousy from the self-designated "dog pack", as they keep repeating the same old tired complaints.
I love it here in the Philippines. I have a nice house, two housekeepers, and a wife which dotes on me as much as I do her. I left the Armed Forces Retirement Home to come here to live. There, I was surrounded by old people. Here I am surrounded by laughter and joyful people living a good life. Not everyone has money, but even the poor folk here are happy to be a live!!!
