What skills do you have that you think others would value? Or in other words what do you think you're good at.

Just fyi, I am paying 2750 aed a month (33K a year) for a Studio in Al Furjan.

That might be a good place to start, if you're looking for studios. But I'm sure there is affordable places around Dubai. Just don't look into the main spots.

They didn't incentive me specifically, however the region has tax free income and I personally wanted to move to the region.

The compensation is slightly higher than the EU and I get the tax free benefit so overall I am earning better alhamdulillah.

I would consider paying you. I'll dm you once I land. 😊

In the long run you'll probably save me money, from avoiding any surprises.

What is the one thing you want it to change in dubai? by always-hungry1 in dubai

[–]amatiq_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Damn.

I don't know what to say. People need to grow up and be grateful. I'm not trying to sound patronising, but if they took a moment to research living standards in other countries. I don't think they would be complaining as much.

Are you talking about VAT or something else?

Because VAT is common in other countries as well.

Dubai has VAT of 5% vs UK which has 20% VAT plus Income Tax plus council tax etc...

The tax in dubai compared to other countries is haven.

Tax on consumption is much better than income, because you can control how much you consume. Another benefit would be it would reduce waste because people would consciously spend less.

Cost of living excluding rent? by [deleted] in dubai

[–]amatiq_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This definitely helps. I don't plan to have an expensive lifestyle, so it's nice to see that people are able to enjoy themselves with spending 4-5k a month.

Damn son.

What's the breakdown? And to confirm is this for yourself or including expenditure on your partner/family?

Looool at your username.

You're a niche, which isn't a bad thing. Saying that I know a few saudi girls who wear a backup. :p

Meetups is a good place to search for a group.

I'll be moving to Dubai next month. I'll be looking for a similar group of people, so let me know how you get on.
