Another issue is how the city is growing so fast that the infrastructure can't keep up, leading to a lot of traffic jams. Lack of public transport into many areas. But in general it's the best base to have as an entrepreneur these days. Low tax, digitized government infrastructure, safety and direct flights everywhere.

[@tuomaskiv]

Yeah that’s true, also construction zones everywhere

[@alwaysyouramanda]

Are the laborers even skilled? You see that a lot get trapped there having their passports stolen and getting paid less than they were promised. I can imagine work ethic goes way down too..

[@jayceontalylor4244]

@@alwaysyouramanda thats fake and false, maybe it happened in Qatar, but people confuse Qatar with Dubai, actually Dubai have better work conditions then Europe, but i dont know why people keeps lying on youtube, i started to think they are paid to do that

I want to live in Dubai, I’m a resident Doctor in Italy and I’m planning to finish residency and move to Dubai

[@alwaysyouramanda]

You’re so brave. After learning about the laborers from other countries I couldn’t consider it. Id be too heartbroken contributing to their situations. Paying the people who exploit them is no different than exploiting them ourselves

[@jayceontalylor4244]

My wife is a doctor, actually she invited me to come to Dubai and i dont regret it ! if you are a doctor you will live the best days in your life, so many privileges here, and the country respects the status of doctors, also expect a very high paying job, my wife have 4 years in UAE working as doctor and we are already millionaires lol, she is making $220k per year, all tax free, and we come from a poor country so we already bought a big villa in our home country, and 3 apartments, and for some relatives we bough some cheap apartment to 3 of them, and now we are just enjoying Dubai, its like there is so many money that you dont know where to spend, and we are not the kind of persons that will buy gold and show off or something . so yeah, come you will make the decision of your life

[@T56757]

Can you explain the apartment rental market to us. For example, does your lease allow you to leave several months a year and do you have to pay for those months or do they allow you not to pay since you are not there? Thank you, any information will be helpful.

[@tuomaskiv]

I made a detailed video on this here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2i5q51_g9CXm9k

Come to visit us in south Brazil! We leave in Gramado, which is close to Argentina and Uruguay as well.

[@tuomaskiv]

Hopefully soon to that part of the world too!

[@Sain_taro]

How is your rental agreement setup since you said you live there for only 6-8 months. Did you choose to pay yearly or monthly, or do you only pay for the months you stayed there?

[@tuomaskiv]

before I only rented for the period I stay, now I rented for a full year but I can end the contract early. I recommend the first option.

[@MarioG02]

The one big negative thing is that there is absolutely nothing to do except for shopping 🤷‍♂️ it’s just too hot, a roads with too much traffic and skyscrapers…nothing really interesting that you can’t get let’s say in Europe or Uk ….🤔

in Europe and USA no freedom from robbery, stabbings, filthy roads and yet you have to pay lot of tax. UAE, Qatar, Kuwait also invites immigrants who are productive in their country rather than Europe and USA who will encourage illegal immigration and than blame others when we ask them why your countries are in mess.

Bangkok beats Dubai any day. It's cheaper, greener, more trains and nicer looking. The weather in Bangkok is not ideal though as its very humid.

I just don't buy this at all. Maybe if you're already rich, Dubai is convenient. But there is no real opportunity in Dubai, not for normal people. Yes, Dubai is motivated to make the city attractive. Maybe they will chose to make the city more liberal, to meet that goal. Maybe they won't. Dubai also has another dual goal: do not disturb the rich ruling class. If there is a conflict between 'making the city attractive' to westerners, or _really_ threatening the power of the elite, this conflict will be resolved in favor the elite, 100% of the time. Foreign Nationals are very specifically made to be powerless, in Dubai, except as customers.
