                    [Summary] => The country faces a potential investor gold mine from retiring overseas Filipino workers, according to Architect Gilbert Yu.


Yu pointed out that the first wave of OFWs that left the country 40 years ago are now set to retire and are intent on returning to the Philippines because of the much cheaper cost of living.


Yu estimates that each retiring OFW may be bringing home anywhere from $100,000 to $150,000.


With even at least 20,000 OFWs coming home each year, Yu calculates, there would be an inflow of $2 billion or P110 billion annually.
