Its also Abu Dhabi which also looks similar to North American cities

Except all the girls are Escorts from East Europe 😂

Thanks! We try to always be objective and look at things from multiple angles.

Will definitely do!

You’re welcome! It’s certainly worth visiting!

What other places are of interest to you?

​@@MichaelRosmer Hello! I gain so much value from your videos! Thank you for your response. I'm interested in learning more about Lisbon, Madeira, Tiblisi, Malta, Belgrade, North Macedonia... and where ever might be a tax-friendly location that's advantageous for my small 11-employee software company that I plan to move out of the US in 2022/2023 (and grow). I don't know where that is! I'll need easy access to this country (and potentially citizenship?), but I don't see a CBI program that is a good fit yet. I'm waiting to see what changes North Macedonia makes to its CBI. Also, I like Ukraine from a tech perspective (I have contacts there), but Russo-Ukranian relations... well, not so much. I like Italy, but the taxes seem high and I don't hear anyone else talking about it being a great place for tech. For living... I'm in love with Lisbon... like everyone else! I plan to move April/May 2022 from the US on a D7, apply for permanent residency, and eventually for citizenship. (I've already sold my home and am prepping to move LLCs, voter reg, accounts, etc. to South Dakota which doesn't tax expats or businesses unlike the state where I currently live.) The size/resources of my company fit Portugal's Golden Visa, but I'm not sure I want my company to be there, although I've set aside time to look into Madeira soon. I'm certainly out of my wheelhouse! I never though I'd leave the US, but 2020 exposed our failings to an intolerable degree and opened me to consider international options that excite me!

@@MakeItSo_ST sounds like great plans. Yes, Portugal isn't such a good place to have a business. Depending on what you're doing with software you might consider Singapore.

Thanks for the added info! It definitely looks like Dubai is becoming more and more open every year! I’m sure that this will help attract more foreigners in the country, especially ones from the western countries.

AC / and gold?

That sounds terrible! Yeah waiting times in Canada are just insane. Sorry to hear this about your grandma. :(

@@OffshoreCitizen It is what it is. I am hoping to break out of being a 4th generation person living in north america. There has to be something better. The way they are talking about taxing us is just stupid. Got to go where I am treated best.

That's what you get with free healthcare. Everyone goes to the hospital instead of doctors offices when they're sick

I am from dubai

You're welcome! Anything you'd like to see next?

​@OffshoreCitizen is it easy to transfer our driver licenses from US to UAE ?

Are there specific reasons that make you want to stay for only few days ?

@@hellophoenix I always thought it would be too hot and dry. I live in the UK and am not use to desert conditions. Also the photos I’ve seen it seems very built up and over commercialised with no green spaces or parks. Perhaps I’m wrong and after a few days I might enjoy staying longer?

@@tinglestingles it is very hot in the late spring and summer but starts to cool and be very pleasant by October. I'd say December or January could be a nice departure from UK winter weather. You are right about green spaces there aren't a lot that's one of their missions to make Dubai the best city to live in by 2040 they say they plan on making something like 70% of the city or some similarly large number into green spaces. One of the things I love about Dubai is they realize where they are weak and are working to improve, which is more than I can say for most of the Western nations, which tend to either think their weaknesses are the lack of gender neutral bathrooms or very complacent.

@@tinglestingles I agree with Michael , it’s very humid and very hot. I’d say July and August are just unbearable months. But I was in London for 6 weeks in the winter and barley saw the sun and it really depressed me. Also, there aren’t many parks but my brother lives in a golf course development and he has a gorgeous view and surrounded by green space. An ideal situation would be to stay in Dubai from October until April and then go to Europe. That would be the life 😊

Depends

Yes you can

Permanent? or Temp

Yes stay in gays countries . Dont come to us !

@@user-fc4qr6wp6sthat was rude tbh

@@user-fc4qr6wp6sعلى كيفج معاه

Then live low key with it.... This you should do everywhere. Also germany is in some parts dangerous for gay couples... But pls hsve in view that europe and north america hsve free Internet Use. So its not censored like in the Muslim arab World 😊

So why UAE does not give you citizenship ? belonging to same religion! it should be easy

Yes absolutely, you will have no issues. Actually I’d say that it would feel much safer than in North America, you can go out any time of the day and nobody will even approach you let alone something else. In terms of safety Dubai is a great place. The only potential problem you could have would be if you’re dressed inappropriately in places such as malls. The worst thing that can happen is they’d tell you to change your clothes. Yeah we will certainly film about real estate! Thanks for the suggestion.

Yes you can

On average probably Emiratis are wealthier than Americans. UAE definitely doesn't leave their people behind the way the US does. There's a lot of very poor Americans. By many measures quality of life in Emirates but in particular in Dubai is far better than most parts of the US for the average local

@@MichaelRosmer oh yes definitely and I appreciate your give thoughts and overview.I saw that most of Americans think that they are richest than any other part of world because as far they have leading economy no doubt but my views changed when I came here.Here people are struggling for their life too being a super power.As far as I know UAE is better for their own native emaratis people but other nationalities who are working there most of them are struggling very bad as compared to US.I found US better for other Nationals who want to work there and earn money.

Try to visit Abu Dhabi. Its much richer here than it is in Dubai. Burj Khalifa is named after Sheikh Khalifa who lived in Abu Dhabi and was our former president. He sadly passed away in May 13, 2022

@@morestuff64058 hi mansour i will inshallah iam in US now and willing to visit uae soon.Can i meet you when ever i have a plan to visit Abu Dhabi.I visited Dubai in 2013 as my eldest brother was there on thay time.

😂😂😂 So true. Honestly not my style of city but I lived in Seattle for a while years ago and met all kinds of people who loved the "expressive" scene there it always felt super socialist to me.

@@MichaelRosmer Raised my kids and businesses in Seattle glad I left many years ago. Seattle and Portland are shitholes now

Like what ??

Do you know of places that are better? Dubai has been one of the most open places in the world.

@@MichaelRosmer Russia and there's no 5g for people who care. Every square inch of Dubai is covered in 5g. Not a good option at all. You're better off getting multiple residents permits to travel different places different times in the year. Spain is the best Mediterranean country, Russia is one of the least restrictive overall

@@gu3sswh075 Spain has had nuts covid restrictions. Yes Dubai has been very effective at rolling out 5G, yet more evidence it has nothing to do with covid ;p

@@gu3sswh075 are you an idiot dude

What scientific measures do you recommend?

You are joking are you not.. Kosher means Jewish food correct?? but may be one day they are opening up to ideas , recently opened a Hindu temple

My wife tends to say the opposite. She says she's never felt safer as a woman than in Dubai and is a huge fan. I think this is an example of one of the biases people have prior to visiting because they tend to think it's very Islamic and restrictive but that's not the reality.

@@MichaelRosmer Let's agree that the level of emancipation for LOCAL women is less than any G7 country

@@Mik-rs3xv Possibly not at the same level of the G 7 , but it has changed so much in the last few years. They have women at a very high levels in the government and even flying jets in the Air Force. Also, they liberalized their laws last year and now the age of consent is 15 , cohabitation is legal and expats can get married , divorced , and apply inheritance laws of their own country. I’m not denying the fact that local women don’t enjoy the same rights as Western women but it’s not fair not to recognize the very fast progress they have enjoyed in the last few years and may I add that women in Switzerland didn’t enjoy voting rights until the 1971.
