Why did nobody mention Dubai or UAE generally? I am in my 31st year here (in UAE) and have never regretted that move I made on November 15 1994. Live quietly and you will have a nice life ............. if you want be some kind of influencer (whatever one of those is), then you surely invite trouble.

Can somebody tell me when the revolutions will occur all over Europe and indeed also the UK - all politicians should be ARRESTED and locked up (with the innocents who are in prison for using hurty words in social media) ... ooh wouldn't they exact their revenge on these corrupt bar stewards

Let's be brave here and denounce all Bankers as 'scum-sucking pondlife' - as for politicians, we all know. and have always known that they are all thoroughly corrupt, but most of all, utterly inept, brainless, and about as much use to the society/the people as putting 'Ashtrays on Motorbikes'...

And neither shall I - Someone remarked that I was deranged earlier --- Maybe we can actually see who is --- Have a good life in the EUSSR my friend .... and do start preparing for your Digital Euro controlled by EU Govts - (would anyone seriously trust Macron etc with their finances------...

Read my contribution again --- I said DISTOPIA is just around the corner i.e meat/petrol/rationing/free movement etc As I am married to an EU citizen (a real one not imported) and have a JV with an Italian company (and speak fluent italian). Yes I do know exactly what is going on in that 'EU...

I have kept out of the swath of comments, but do wish to ask you with regard to your accusations that my information is distorted, fabricated and include personal attacks - so let me calmly ask the following .............. A) Have you heard about the 15 minute cities? If not settle down in a...

"There is no downside to EU citizenship; ................" - have you been drinking ? How can you say such a false widespread comment of positivity. Dare I say its good for all the incoming migrants as they have nothing to be confiscated and everything is provided for them..... as fo the rest...

Yes I did, but it seems they have a lower max age for residents - so I did not qualify

Dubai/UAE -- been here now over 30 years and I too do not regret it - PS there are taxes here - it's just that they are called fees and fines .....

With regards to the secondary thread - I have actually just passed 30 years in UAE and know what goes on here. The Govt of Dubai doesn't care, but the sovereign Govt controlled by AD does (they want to show the world that they are a responsible mature law abiding country). Dubai have their own...

It seems to me that in today's 'upgraded version' pushed by Central Banks, Governments, (corrupt western) Politicians etc it means if you try to move even $US50,000 from 'here to there' you must justify 'how/where' you got it, and why you are moving it? .................................... which...

Could some enlightened individual (there are very many intelligent well read members here), tell me what's the meaning of 'Money Laundering' .... The idea that keeping YOUR hard earnt money away from thieving Governments and their political agents, (the majority of which are the real corrupt...

I can advise on the living in Qatar query - having lived and worked there up to the FIFA WC. It is like Dubai perhaps 25 years ago, its glizty and show-off in some areas, but still there are wild natural areas to enjoy at weekends (that's Friday in Qatar). Since the WC it has also rather emptied...

Knowing Finland as I do (married to a Finn for 24 years and counting), you are very much welcome here for some some respite from your over-regulated and severely over-taxed leftie distopia)

Reading all the complicated tax queries here, and first off I must declare I know nothing about tax (actually my wife is frem a wrist stinging Scandinavian country and always jokes that she will teach me 'what is tax' one day. However I do have an involvement in a RAK FZ company for another (as...
