Rel, stop comparing Phillipines to US. The cost of living is proportional to their salaries . The government eats away ~40-50% of their salaries but they get facilities in return. But that really leaves you only half of you're salary to spend =P. Also, converting USD to Pesos(did u know the acronym for pesos is PHP =P?) isnt very wise either. The conversion rate is very high .
