Having lived in Dubai for several years and having been in a relationship with a white girl, I've seen both sides of the equation. I am Indian by the way. Your salary in Dubai is almost always tied to your nationality/race. Unless you are in a company that prides itself in being an equal opportunities style of employer, you will definitely get paid lesser than colleagues from more developed countries. But this distinction doesn't just apply to brown vs. white or black vs. arab, etc. My girlfriend (Spanish) was at a director level position of a small startup. One of her subordinates was British. Subordinate was paid more than the director. It happens in Dubai. Salary segregation in Dubai leads to racial segregation for the most part. Different people can afford to do different things. I'm not sure if these rough tier's apply for general salaries in Dubai but here's where you stand in the 'nationality pay scale': 1. British/American 2. Arab from Saudi/Oman/UAE/etc. 3. Other Western Europeans (Germany/Portugal/France/etc.) 4. Lebanese 5. Malaysian/Thai/Other more developed Asian countries (Taiwan for example..) 6. Filipino/Indian 7. Pakistani/Bangladeshi/Syrian (country with any level of turmoil/desperation) 8. African countries I might have messed up some of the tier's above but this is pretty much how it works. Uncontrolled, unregulated capitalism. The basic rule in this entirely racist scheme appears to be that you can expect to be paid about twice of what you may earn in your own country. Hence, the economic development of where you come from greatly affects the final salary you may be able to negotiate. Of course, as most Indians in Dubai are blue collar workers (they get treated very badly, by the way), you will pretty much be regarded as 'poor'. Even if you aren't. It's just a very prevalent stereotype in the arab world. White = Rich. Brown = Poor. There are plenty of broad minded people in Dubai, no doubt about that at all. You'll be able to find friends who don't wear their race on their sleeves. You'll meet several people who will also look at you weird if you're brown and in a 'posh' place. You may also be denied entrance into some clubs, etc. Dubai is racism at it's finest. There is no hidden racism in Dubai. Maybe that could be seen as a small positive. It's all blatant in your face, you suck because of your skin color kind of racism. But you're asking about how it's like. If you can get past all the blatant racism, you'll earn a higher salary than India and may lead a good lifestyle. I would've definitely counted myself as upper middle class in Dubai but I would not go back there for a million dollars. There were times where me and my girlfriend went out for dinner and the staff were all "Hello Ma'am, how are you today Ma'am ?" and I'd joke with her "What about Sir ?". Once at this restaurant called Fuddruckers where you order burgers and once they arrive you can go and fill up some toppings at a 'toppings bar' the lady came up and said "Ma'am you can now go and get some toppings". We were there, 5 Indian guys, and 1 white girl. I looked at my girlfriend and said "Baby, I guess you should pick up some toppings for us too". We all laughed and went to get toppings, but this is pretty much commonplace. There were times we even got sick of this kind of behavior. Once in Caribou Coffee I was there with my girlfriend and two other white ladies. I was standing right across the cash counter, waiting to order for everyone when the lady at the counter looked to my left (where the white people were sparkling in the sunlight, excuse my sarcasm) and said "Good afternoon Ma'am, what would you like to have ?"). My girlfriend got so annoyed she said "And good afternoon Sir, no ?". That shut her up. Some people like to downplay racism in Dubai but having been with someone of a different race, I got to see it in a very blatant but technical A/B testing sort of way. I've traveled and lived in about 40 countries. I've never been to a country more openly racist than the UAE so far. (I haven't lived in any other arab countries though..) I have to add though that racial violence isn't a part of the equation at all. I never felt unsafe (well, brown people outnumber everyone else in Dubai..), or even, threatened in any way. For an Indian, you'll just have constant not-so-subtle 'reminders' that you are 'inferior'. If you can deal with that (and the millions of Indians in Dubai certainly seem to be able to deal with it..) then Dubai will be fine for you.

Wow, we can learn a lot from Dubai's incredible success! I'm from the Republic of Zambia, in Southern Africa. We hold the second largest copper mine in the world, yet are the 10th or so poorest country on Earth. Natural resources will only take you so far. Sustainable economics requires a more innovative, open mindset, and the UAE is a shining demonstration of this reality. In college, my roommate, a close friend, and I once had a debate about what policies were holding the country back economically, and I remember him (my roommate) saying, "...it's not about what's right or wrong. It's about what works." I'm sure there's something worth learning here. Wonderful video, CNBC International, I found it very insightful. Greetings from Michigan!

[@ballsack6470]

There's definitely something worth learning here. Copper is a cheap resource that is available in abundance. Crude oil and gas are not. Not all natural resources are created the same. Maybe take notes from the country you live in on how to build the world's largest economy rather than looking for lessons from an Arab shithole with an uneducated populace that needs foreign labor to get anything done.

[@taraeksperimenttayo8531]

It is because of international politics that made some country poor

[@nutzhazel]

Your government didnt tie those mining companies with enough tax that's why ur country's money running out instead of coming in. Same with that country with diamonds. Dubai "tied" their business partners, they must have Dubai partners to open up a business. They get more tax on top of their oil.

Cheapest labour & full tax are main sources of uae so rich ! 👊richer are richest & poor are poorest !

[@Hamim963]

nabin lama full tax?

[@ferasalhati8713]

Taxes (VAT) has just been interduced by Jan 2018.

[@aurossjenulfmoneda4622]

Expats are the resources of the country.. that’s the real thing nowadays

[@imaie3617]

auross jenulf Moneda yes, but not just the expats. The leadership’s vision was the main reason. Who allowed expats in , in the first place? Look around and you will find countries, though richer in Natural resources, with people below poverty line. Though their leaders have wealth, they are corrupted , spending that money to make a mess in other countries to weaken other countries rather than spending it in their own country and on their people or expats.

Dubai got rich due to trade & finance unlike the rest of the UAE & the rich Gulf countries, which rely on oil & gas and good strategies & planning from the UAE leadership, it's as simple as that! Also, another reason Dubai got so rich is that Dubai & UAE's economy relies on foreign workers from Asian countries like India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Philippines, and others, without foreign workers from Asia, the economy will not function or even collapse.

No, Then why no one else can copy them????? like Somalia or Yemen.

They used the oil money wisely but still without oil money they wouldn’t be rich.
