Cost of living in the Philippines

[Sangoma]

it depends,how many people in one family?or only urself? for foods,clothing,bills etc etc. its talking a 150£ a week per person.thats not allowing for going out to a pub or a restaurant.but if u go to a pub u must allowed 40£ or 50£ a per night.

Is that in the UK or Philippines?


Put it this way, for a family of four, excluding rent but including everything else, which figure woud be sufficient per month for a reasonable standard of living

P20,000
P30,000
P40,000
P50,000
P60,000
P70,000
P80,000
P100,000


I have read that the minimum would be P40k, and any more would make life increasingly comfortable.

Hi Sangoma,

They are several factors to consider.

Assuming two adults and two kids who need to go school.
I would imagine P15K per person/month to be comfortable.

This figure is based on my wife's relative's family living in Mindanao.

In Manila, I would assume at least P20k per person/month.

Cheers
