      Being successful don’t happen by magic
      Success is dependent on the action or
      steps you take to achieve it. Show me
      a man who doesn't have an investment
      and I will tell you how soon he'll go broke
      Investment is building a safe haven for the
      future: with the right choice of investment
      that has at least 1% minimum risk and
      with an Expert guidance, profit and interest
      should be 💯 guaranteed.

    My memories of Dubai are totally different. Buying a day ticket for the subway. Shopping for groceries at the local supermarket. Walking to the subway stop (1.5 km), I had to walk over some sand for the last bit. Eating fast food at the Mall of the Emirates. No fancy cars. No expensive hotels. No jewelry. ... I still had a good time there. And it was such as contrast to Pyongyang (which I'd left just three days ago).

    What I always liked about Dubai they had the foresight to see that their oil resources were limited took the proactive step to lay the foundations to diversify their economy. This ensures a smooth transition over time from oil based to tourist, financial and who knows maybe a future world leader in the high tech industry. Whatever it is they prepared their future generations and economy, a continued lifestyle of peace and financial independence. What they have done should be a benchmark for countries like ours (Trinidad and Tobago), developing and under developed, failed economies, countries that seems to be in a perpetual state poverty and war for generations that proper planning, foresight and sacrifices anything can be achieved just put your people and country first. This was an awesome documentary Mr. Morgan well done.👍👍👍

    I enjoyed watching this because this is the closest I could ever come to seeing this kind of extravagance. It is these folks' money and they are free to do whatever they choose to do with it. However, with so much poverty in the world, their money could do wonderful things for people suffering. If I was ever so blessed to have that kind of money (or even a small portion of it), I definitely would be compassionate and help as many people as I could with a safe place to live, food to eat and safe water to drink. If success is so important, then helping others would be the greatest success in the world, in my opinion. Thanks for taking me into a world that I am most happy watching on my computer.

    @Bomfunk777 5 років тому +37

    I've visited Dubai this month. While I was certainly fascinated by the buildings and infrastructure that Oil money + EU/US/AU hired brains + Indian cheap labor can build, it is not a place where I would live. The first 5-6 days were more than enough for me to see all the shiny skyscrapers, malls, artificial islands/beaches and the very few historical landmarks. Then I made a desert safari and that's pretty much it. I was out of ideas. I'm a person who likes exploring interesting places that have soul, tradition, or hike in the pristine nature - forests, mountains, rivers, waterfalls. In Dubai, all the "fun" gravitates around these shopping malls, especially in the long, unbearably hot, humid summer when you can do nothing else. Also, parks in Dubai have fences and admission fee of around several dirhams. Walking in the old districts - Al Fahidi, Deira, etc you see all the indian, pakistani, bangladeshi, etc workers crammed in these dormitories, 7-8 people in a room, sleeping on bunk beds. I agree it is probably their choice to come to Dubai and make some money , but you can see the huge gap between the very rich and the very poor. Also saw a lot of these flyers on the ground promoting Philipina hookers. And let's now mention the haze and dust particles in the air, the occasional sand storms and the fact that at least 6 months of the year are way too hot to do any outdoor activity. That crushing heat just make you lose motivation.

  • @vp4822
    @vp4822 4 роки тому +6

    Opulent and excess wealth is created when there is a vast difference between the cost of resources and the resale value of finished products:
    - cost of oil (to extract) and the resale price of the oil,
    - the cost of building those structures (land and labor) vs the resale.
    Also, these types of inefficiencies persist when there is a shortage of skilled workers.
    A secretary from the middle of Britain making 7 figures by being a real estate in Dubai is a testament to that.
    But all of these is facilitated / funded by those who are willing to spend real dollars on those finished good and products:
    - the oil consumers of the world burning through 80 million barrels of oil per day,
    - the rich and famous who are willing to pay millions of dollars for property built on sand.

I was heartbroken because i trusted him so much and knowing that he has a secret relationship, hurts me a lot.. But I thank all those who placed the contact information of Dr UBAJA on the Internet because through that i have been able to contact Dr UBAJA and today my relationship has been restored with love and more romance than ever before.

    My favorite thing about Dubai is the desert, my favorite thing about anything close to a desert is the desert. I love desert, i stand on top of sand dunes, and then i imagine thousands of years ago, people traveling on camels and in the form of caravans. If i can be very picky, i like red sand dunes than the typical yellow sand dunes, the red ones are just more mystical. I love the desert, second are mountains.... third is probably water bodies.
    by the way, the theme park idea got scraped. Now it is just a big area with buildings, and sand blowing over them as the desert comes in to eat it all up. If you want to really understand and first-hand witness the 2nd law of thermodynamics, also known as Entropy, then you must go to abandoned places in deserts. Deserts are just awesome!

    I honestly feel Dubai is so artificial in all sense of it from the structures to social, political and economic life. I honestly feel it's fake and might eventually turn nightmarish any time, any day, for foreign residents.

      Yes that's true but I guess you didn't expect them to sit idle doing nothing to make their lives better because of fear of what might happen eventually. I love Dubai because they have utilised their God-given natural resources and due to that are getting lots of money through tourism.

    We stayed at the 5 star Ritz Carlton in Abu Dhabi 2018, just a short distance from Dubai. It had several themed restaurants, and the hotel and rooms were spectacular. However, 2 starters and 2 mains Chinese meals with a bottle of house wine cost £148.00. and it was no better than you would get from any reputable English city, Chinese restaurant. The Emirates are far too expensive for most people and anyway, these prices simply cannot be justified. Thank Dog the holiday was free (apart from that one meal) as our company won our place there from corporate purchases over the year, from our suppliers. No way would I go there again, Majorca is just fine, particularly in June.

      They are all like Holiday Inns. $115,000 for 3 days in a high class hotel by the Metropolitan Opera House, in NYC, is larger but basically looks like a room in any Holiday Inn with 2 showers and 2 beds with no room service. A room with a kitchen at The Chelsea in NYC is $110 per night. They kept Sid Vicious' name scratched in the steel by Sid in the elevator.
      AND NO SHARIA LAW ALLOWED IN NYC, NY, NY !!! Or the other lower 49 American States and Alaska and Hawai'I !!!

    If you combined every persons money and wealth in Dubai you could combine the 2 wealthiest people in the US and Dubai still wouldn't have close to enough wealth
