    Anyone Interested In Creating a LinkedIn Engagement Pod?

    MARKETING 
    Yes so it helps with your engagement/following, not others. No point in commenting on your post if you run a b2b roofing company or any other unrelated business. The idea is good and would be very nice, but the algorithm just doesn’t work like that.

    I don't see how engaging helps if we're all in completly different niches?

    Oh the UAE will 100% take a heavy hit with this war. Millions of people are currently without job activity, no new capital is coming in and future stability is uncertain. The severity of this is not yet realized by many. The real estate market is currently on lock. No one is selling and buyers...

    Every single person I know in Dubai is planning to stay or return. This city will bounce back. Citizenship is not required to feel at home somewhere and I think there is a sentiment going with Dubai residents that western media don’t see. People are genuinly happy to live in Dubai and are...

    Some simple business ideas here that I make up on the spot now: 1. In the marina there are thousands of (more budget oriented) tourists walking on the promenade. There are some companies that offer boat rides but they offer it on lame boats that only fit 4 people. This makes the cost high and...

    What most don’t realize as well is that you don’t have to live there all the time. In general the wealthy here are mobile. When it gets hot in summer they move to their old country or somewhere else, when they feel like going to Thailand they book a flight to Thailand. From Dubai you can...

    This is where the lowest paid workers generally come from. They are the underclass in their countries. This is where they end up in Dubai. Horrible standards for us, but quite comfortable for others. And that’s why I keep hammering on that it’s all a matter of perspective. For someone in the...

    Thank you. That really means a lot to me. I will PM you because I don’t want to write my plan here on the forum. I actually think that I’ve thought it out quite well. I’m curious about your thoughts.

    What you guys don’t understand that it’s not all about taxes. It is setting yourself in an environment that is hyper competitive. The top 1% of every country moves to Dubai. And you meet these people in your daily interactions. It sets you up to a very different standard to what is possible in...

    With all the respect but I think you’re wrong. Real estate development in Dubai is a sales & marketing game. The zoning is clear and you can’t change it easily. If you buy a plot you can start construction 1 month later. The value is in marketing a building, and selling it for the highest...

    I will never go back. Maybe in 10 years when they realized they made a mistake by pestering every value creator out. There is a heavy exodus going on atm. In the last 2 months i’ve had 4 friends moving out. I estimate their total tax bill would be 1-2m€ They could’ve funded a lot of left wing...

    The status/money thing is something I also don’t enjoy that much. However when you’re not in Downtown/some touristy areas it’s less prevalent. Also regarding fitness: there are almost zero fat people in this city. Everytime I take a walk outside I’m motivated to go to the gym again.

    What I’ve found is that the people who have the strongest negative opinion about Dubai generally are unhappy with the money they are making or the life they are living and just don’t want to admit to themselves that a better life could exist. They just can’t fathom that there are places that...

    To tell you the truth I didnt move for the tax benefit. Even if I would have to pay 80% in taxes, I would still move to Dubai because I would still take home more money then in the EU. Also: a big reason why I moved is because the EU is full of people who think working (hard) is not needed...

    To illustrate a point I made above here: I made a friend from Pakistan in Dubai. His name is Waqas. He came here 8 years ago and worked a job in construction. He saved up to get his driving licence. He then got a better job as a driver. He then improved his english and got a better job as a...
