Farmers do not threaten to cut off crops here in America when prices do not go their way.

Markets go up and down but there is always something in it for everybody.

A gain or a loss!

Get over it.

You will have the amount of money God intends you to have. Amen.

That's Dubai, UAE.

Their oil is expected to be gone by 2016.

Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, started 20 years ago to make Dubai something other than just oil.

When the world economic down turn happened, Dubai got pinched big time. What was the Burj Dubai, the worlds tallest building, was ready to default, during construction. The $1.5 billion project was bailed out by Abu Dhabi and renamed Burj Khalifa, in honor of Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed bin Sultan al-Nahyan of Abu Dhabi.

Dubai built the Palm Islands which sold out quickly. The World Islands are another story, with the project unfinished and most islands barren.

Dubailand, a huge theme park was put on hold in 2008. They restarted the project in 2013. Current estimates are that it will open in 2020.
