[1] I've been there!
[2] Six from my small town work there. One got in there on Dubai residency with £12 million [sterling] to avoid tax in UK.

He bought on the front of the marina for £900,000 in 2006. A friend of his says that is worth £1.5 million now.
I thought the property had dropped.


Who says that is MY web-site? I just said it is at the top , if one enters "visit dubai" into Google UK.
Another one at the top is visit-Dubai-city.

I still say that Dubai's internet marketing generally is not clever.
Too slow, with fancy music, much of it.
Who wants to here SALES SPIN from Dubai building developers and Dubai Govt?
You tell me which are the best TRULY INDEPENDENT tourism web-sites for Dubai !! visit-dubai.co.uk looks independent , but I don't know how accurate it is . No idea!!

Living expenses in Dubai look high.

Does Dunbar ring a bell as a marina address?

At the moment his properties ar worth what he paid for them. They are devaluing by the week so he cant be that smart, i dumped all mine off and with hindsight i am fekin glad i did.
