Thanks Arnie... it's all for the good cause. Can I just say the response has been tremendous already with even some serious 'seed' funds already pledged.

Ah... Dubai is trying to generate incentives for people to come here, and Tax Free Income has been a long standing one. If they start imposing income tax, I can see a lot of people tailing it.

As the drugs are low (and sometimes not so low) grade amphetamines, you may find there are restrictions on their availability and use.

Instead of doping your kids, you might like to try alternative medicine, such as a kick in the behind and discipline.

The scores say it all.. but it could also be coz of all the practise thats gone in already. Not so sure, I mean of course practice helps, but the instant lift of the Hammer I think is testimony that there was some unrealised potential there.

It really depends on the role. If your husband (I assume husband) is a bell hop... then it is a fantastic package. If he is a Director, it's a ballpark package (maybe on the slight side if the company doesn't pay a bonus). If he is a GM or better, then he is getting stiffed. What's the role? Either ...

Taking into account what has been said above, also consider:

1. You cannot get HIV/Immuno drugs here.
2. If they discover the condition, there will be a black stamp on her passport, prohibiting from ever entering the country again.
