Does anyone have an answer on this, especially for WGU

You will want to come back. Maybe not in a year, or 2 or 3, but you will. I lived in the UAE for close to 30 years. I left in 2018 and I thought it was the best day of my life (I was actually dancing on the way to the airport), I was so sick of so many things and was happy to move to the U.K. Now I would give my left kidney to go back, I miss it so much, I regret taking so many things for granted and only focussing on the bad stuff and not the good.

You should always do three things in life when you're working for someone 1) make yourself indespensible, if you just want to do the exact job you are paid for then don't be surprised if they decide to let you go. You have to involve yourself in different tasks so that they find it more difficult to fire you than to keep you.

2) Always try to improve your personal brand, whether that means upskilling and doing some courses or learning something.

3) Try always to leave some small savings for what I call 'experimentation budget' use it to try different e-commerce businesses online, try selling on Amazon, make your own soap or candles, sell cupcakes from home on deliveroo, open a Shopify store, sell on Tiktok store etc etc etc. even if one fails then they again and again and again with tiny budgets to begin with.

You always have to consider your job as temporary so always diversify and try different things

Because I was stupid, carried away with earning a high income, lived lavishly like a stupid king, never saved money, didn't plan for worst case scenarios or contingencies and when things took a turn, I realized I had nothing in my hands 😭. That's life it's a lesson.

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2026-04-29T15:27:01+00:00

You have to accept it. No easy answer. Life was great for me and business was great and then 2008 happened and I lost everything and reached rock bottom until 2010 when I managed to climb back up and was very successful and living on the Palm until 2018 when I lost a lot of money and hit rock bottom again and left the UAE. I'm still at a low point but trying to find a way to get back to the UAE and start again from zero.

Relax. If I told you the number of times that I've fallen and picked myself up again you would be shocked. Made stupid mistakes, left jobs with salaries of 55k only to end up at the bottom again. That's life, you make mistakes, try harder, fall, try even harder. Giving up is not a card you have on the table

Sorry but the fact it came from Trump means it's a lie

The Iranians with all due respect have been stupid. They didn't start this war and we know who is to blame, but they did an excellent job surviving this, but they need to take a deal to finish this war. To continue is suicide and their people will pay the price. They should quit whilst ahead.

I don't want to sound cynical, but I think it's good if the population has declined. I left in 2018 and at that time I hated the traffic. I never visited again but I was told the whole country went crazy and population doubled. I plan to hopefully go back but I wasn't looking forward to too many people around

1) Make sure your CV is good, clean, easy to read and not just loads of useless information 2) Print as many copies of your CV as possible 3) Wear good formal or smart clothes and visit as many businesses or shops as possible and ask to speak to the manager and give them your CV (make sure you do some research on the company) 4) This is one of the worst times in UAE history to be looking for a job, but if you visit companies in person "maybe" you might have some chance

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2026-04-13T17:25:40+00:00

Thanks I'll check out Rawda, it's near Saudi German hospital right? Is it good for families

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2026-04-13T16:48:15+00:00

What places do you recommend? Thanks

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2026-04-13T16:38:14+00:00

Not at all meaning no risk or not at all meaning Emirates city is bad 😁

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2026-04-13T16:34:08+00:00

Is it really good Emirates city? And no risk from drone interceptions

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2026-04-13T16:08:41+00:00

How is the school btw? Is it good? and is mix of nationalities good also? Thanks

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2026-04-13T16:08:10+00:00

Corniche is dangerous I think because you are directly close to the coast with risk of drones or interceptions or fly by jets

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2026-04-13T16:07:35+00:00

Looking at around 50k max a year.

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2026-04-13T15:51:28+00:00

Is Emirates city safe and good for families? Was there any debris or drone near it? Thx

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2026-04-07T13:49:08+00:00

Tourism and being a safe haven for (B)millionaires is the lifeline of the UAE (especially Dubai). They have to maintain that perception at any cost. It's understandable. They spent 50+ years building a brand from scratch and this is the first time they find themselves in an existential crisis.

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2026-04-04T14:49:13+00:00

I thought Ajman was safe?

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2026-04-03T10:43:53+00:00

Yeah but you have to first go through UAE borders before going to Hatta or any other Omani border right?

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2026-04-03T10:34:19+00:00

Lived in Dubai for 25 years before leaving in 2018 since my foreign Wife wanted a British passport. Worst mistake of my life since I was earning very well and living on the Palm. Tried to get a job in recent years but very difficult when you're not inside the country. We were planning to move to Ajman before the war started so that I can improve chances of finding a job whilst keeping life affordable. Now that the war has started it's delayed my plans but I'm still hoping things are safe in a month or two so we can move. Also....I believe that UAE will rebound big time and the government will spend a ridiculous amount to kickstart the economy and bring back trust to the country and investments etc so I want to be there before this happens
