I myself prefer to rent my partner all ready has her own land she comes from farming stock and does no how to look after herself. Daff is right about business falling apart after the hubby dies, I have seen that very often. Pensions are of course the best options in most cases, but if the wife or family where already into business as my partner was before I met here, its should be safe in investing in businesses the wife can handle especially when she is good at organising and with money.

My plan is to invest in my partners parents farm of which we have already started to do. I thought it best to look at my partners talent and to that odds she has many, from dress making and sewing, shell art, designing and making Jewlry, cooking, weaving, a beautician and good at farming. If we invest in our partners future it should be something that they are good at.

Like most Filipina's my partner want to have a shop and she already invested her money when working in a shop and many small business near her home even run a chainsaw business with her brother cutting down trees when it was legal too.


So part of my plan is to invest in opening small shops and buy the things that she needs to run her businesses. Invest in crops for her own land run by her family. Possibly build a house on her land for her later years.

She of course has got the options of a pension if she agrees finally to marry me. Yes its strange for a filipina not hounding to get married but it just shows I chose the right woman a sensible one who likes to take her time.

Many of these filipino women are better looking after themselves than we are, and they normal always survive thats for sure.
