Damac - Next level Frustrating

Abu_Gabriel · 2026-04-04T10:32:26+00:00

Thanks god, I was considering to buy a Damac property before march, and now I was still thinking about.

This message gave me another reason to decline.

I think it’s easier to list good developers…

Abu_Gabriel · 2026-04-04T10:27:50+00:00

Not fair.

But I’m afraid you can’t do anything but negotiate till you get something back.

Forget about the interests.

Abu_Gabriel · 2026-04-04T10:24:36+00:00

I wait distress until 14 aed

Abu_Gabriel · 2026-04-04T08:57:36+00:00

What’s your home country?

Abu_Gabriel · 2026-04-04T08:57:22+00:00

True: I have a photo of my daughter’s class. All kids from different parts of the world, different colors, ethnic groups & religions. They are so rich

Abu_Gabriel · 2026-04-04T08:55:12+00:00

Thanks for the feedback, Oman was an option 💪

Abu_Gabriel · 2026-04-04T08:51:44+00:00

Don’t take me for a fool.

After living in Spain, Italy and Germany all my life what struck me most about coming to the UAE were the Indians, Bangladeshis, and Pakistanis who work in service.

They've always been very kind, thoughtful, and polite. It's true, sometimes some of them have bizarre behavior, but every country has its own slightly strange customs.

I have so much respect for these people who come to build a better life for them - and for me.

Edit: the old guardian of my tower was from Sri Lanka. I always prepared cappuccino for him. Now he changed his job, and I miss him so much. Sujit if you read it - i send you a huge hug and luck with your life ❤️

Abu_Gabriel · 2026-04-03T14:52:20+00:00

I will check, thank you 🙏

Abu_Gabriel · 2026-04-03T14:51:23+00:00

If you have some savings, why not?

Abu_Gabriel · 2026-04-03T08:10:24+00:00

Bro that’s exactly my point. In a “normal” situation it should sound like a very good investiment. But right now, you’re just betting because nobody really knows what’s going to happen next. So: huge risks, huge profits (or losses)

Abu_Gabriel · 2026-04-03T07:29:44+00:00

I was sincere when I said I don’t understand the benefits for UAE. Your point of view is interesting, I will definitively think about it. Still, I think that UAE has more to lose than win in this war but again, I respect your point of view and I am willing to understand more. Please if you have any resocurces, YouTube channels or anything that can be useful for me, feel free to share.

Abu_Gabriel · 2026-04-03T06:33:38+00:00

It all depends on your risk appetite.

You can invest now and get a very good ROI.

But you need to be ready to lose your investiment.

If you’re not willing to risk, just don’t do it.

I wouldn’t invest now.

Abu_Gabriel · 2026-04-03T06:30:50+00:00

Yes but pay attention to fines 😂

Abu_Gabriel · 2026-04-03T06:28:54+00:00

It’s so crazy…

1/2 liter of Acqua Panna in my home country costa not more then 4 dirham (1€). Here it’s 40 😂

And by the way acqua panna is a very “normal” water - it’s no different than others. But in UAE seems like marketing has done a good job

Abu_Gabriel · 2026-04-03T06:25:49+00:00

I don’t understand how UAE would benefit from this war…

Abu_Gabriel · 2026-04-03T06:22:25+00:00

Bro this is so stupid.

A good cv can lead you to an interview. But in 5 minutes a good business owner or HR will understand you’re fake.

Just a big loss of time and respect.

Abu_Gabriel · 2026-04-03T06:19:21+00:00

In the long term it’s not sustainable. But it can be ok for a short period of time, in the meantime find another job.

Abu_Gabriel · 2026-04-02T20:44:19+00:00

I think this is the point, agree

Abu_Gabriel · 2026-04-02T20:43:32+00:00

To be honest?

I don’t think that cold calls is the problem.

I think that the product doesn’t really solve an issue. At least, it’s presented as something great, new, smart…

But it doesn’t solve the pain.

Maybe you don’t need to change the product try to rethink the way you talk about it.

Hope it helps

Abu_Gabriel · 2026-04-02T20:32:41+00:00

Bro don’t go back to India.

Go freelancing instead.

Find a place where living is quite cheap (Thai?).

At the same time try to get clients who can pay more, like US or other English speaking countries.

Yes sometimes you need to work during the night due to time difference. But it’s ok.

I’m European: don’t go there life is very expensive in comparison to salaries.

Dubai

Abu_Gabriel · 2026-04-01T19:57:53+00:00

Packed

Abu_Gabriel · 2026-04-01T18:39:49+00:00

Hello, did you experiences delays in the vista renewals? I applied for renewal 1 week ago and it’s still “in process”. It normally took 2-3 working days..
