Episode #1 of 2 -- Why This American Entrepreneur Chose Roxas City to Retire in the Philippines

In this episode of The Goldfinger Minute, Goldfinger sits down with Ed, an American entrepreneur who has spent the last decade traveling throughout the Philippines before finally deciding where to call home.

After years of visiting cities across the country—including Dumaguete, Ilo ilo, and Cebu—Ed shares why Roxas City in Capiz ultimately captured his attention. From beautiful beachfront walks to a quieter expat community, he explains what made this location stand out among the many destinations he explored.

Ed’s story is also one of reinvention. As the founder of a successful financial and estate-planning company with offices across several U.S. states, he spent decades building businesses and raising a family. Eventually, life events—including divorce and the responsibility of raising his children—led him to sell his company and focus on what mattered most.

Now at 68 years old, Ed is entering a new chapter.

In this conversation, Goldfinger and Ed discuss:

• Why many expats are drawn to the Philippines
• The difference between visiting and truly living here
• Why smaller cities can sometimes offer a better lifestyle than major metro areas
• The challenges and rewards of raising children as a single parent
• Health, longevity, and staying active later in life
• Cultural differences between the United States and Southeast Asia
• The importance of community, respect, and quality of life

Ed also shares his personal philosophy on retirement. Rather than slowing down completely, he believes the key to longevity is staying mentally, physically, and socially active. From sunrise beach walks to swimming and healthy eating, he’s committed to building a lifestyle that supports long-term health and happiness.

For many viewers considering relocation, travel, or retirement abroad, Ed’s experience provides valuable perspective. Choosing the right place to live is about more than scenery—it’s about lifestyle, community, and personal fulfillment.

At The Goldfinger Minute, every guest has a story, and every story offers insight into why so many people from around the world choose to build a life here in the Philippines.
