    The budget is a very interesting look into quality of life through your lens. You are right the socialized side of the any budget depends on the individuals. Is it worth at any point to purchase a house or condo given the affordable rents? Enjoyed the point of view.

    If someone want to buy a house do it now because the price of the houses is going up, when I bought mine in Santiago it was $350,00 now my house in 2024 cost $1.5 million dollars this is why I never sale it, swimming pool, three living room, 4 bathroom a huge Dinner room, 4 bedroom and one small extra for the service a normal kitchen two balcony and big back yard with lemon 🍋 mangoes 🥭 alo Vera and aguacates…. You guys has the opportunity to see what’s going on over there, She knows what she’s talking about and places that you will feel comfortable with your life and family….Travel to the Dominican Republic 🇩🇴 and see the advantages and disadvantages and then decide…It’s a big decision but it’s worth it😊😊😊NYC

    Hi, can you please make a video about investing in Airbnb & what do you believe are the best places to invest in, also do you have a Airbnb managing company or do you only do the ones that you manage now, lastly how many properties or kind of properties to make enough to live in DR like you guys. Gracias por todos los vídeos tan informativos.

    I love DR, but my total expenses are about $4,000 a month in the US (house worth $600K with a mortgage of only $1284). My taxes is a big part of my $4K. It seems that there's a lot of nickel and diming in the US because my mortgage is only 32% of the my expenses (no credit card debt or car loans). Maybe I should buy a place in DR and just live in both places

    I wanted to give you good feedback on a video you made about 1 year ago. You listed the banks that were paying high interest rate yields on money denominated in dollars and money invested using Dominican Pesos. I found this interesting, but you did not cover the protection against bank failure in your country. So, for example, in the USA we have FDIC insurance in case a bank goes out of business. Also, my ex is from Brasil and I remember she told me that the Brasilian government stole money from people's bank accounts maybe 40-50 years ago. What protection would my money have invested in a CD or some other type of high interest account have? Also, what if a foreign bank fails…not a Dominican bank? Is the protection different for domestic banks vs foreign banks? Also, can you do another video based interest rate paid on deposits? Maybe you could do an interview with a private banker in Santo Domingo to cover the investment options foreigners can participate in?

    Norboreis do you like burritos?? And if so what do you like on them?

    That’s a good breakdown for living in the DR. I am not sure what else people need o want to know. If you live in a western country you are spending double this amount. But I suspect people who continue to ask are really not serious. I saw someone asking you to add the cost of sending your daughter to a private school. WHAT THE H..L. 😄😄😄😄😄.

    Your biggest expense is rent , your best option would be to buy an apartment even if it’s not in the fancy areas of Santo Domingo but it’s going to save you half of your expenses.

    Norberis. I am finally in the final stages of my move to the DR. I need to pay for your help to find a 3 bedroom nice place like yours. I would like an elevator, pool, gym or a nearby gym within walking distance and school for 4 and 9 year old kids. My wife found a new complex in the area we visit regularly District National called Son Bonito. We always get a Airbnb near the Plaza de Colombia. We are open to any nice area and personally would love to be able to see some ocean from my balcony. My budget is around $2000 or less for rent. We need a place in May 2024. Ty in advance for your help.

    I live in Santiago. My monthly expenses are about the same but like she said, entertainment isn’t included. I eat out everyday and travel all over the island on vacation. My restaurant and traveling cost me additional $5000 per month so my total average monthly living cost is around $7500

    Thanks, Norberis. Keep in mind that people don't get paid in US dollars there

    • 3 weeks ago

    $150 for air conditioning and electricity? That’s about what I pay here in California in the summer when it’s 100 degrees. 😮

    I’m thinking about moving to DR but how do I get the citizenship cause you not you can’t spend over 28 days in the country

    • 3 weeks ago

    What health insurance provider are you using out there? How can I enroll in their plan? Thanks

    • 3 weeks ago

    The comparison between DR and the USA is very interesting but when you calculate the minimum salaries in both places, the difference is abysmal. US$2,000. It is a good spending budget when you earn US$4,000 but when the average salary is US$500 it's hard
