no Benz, no buy...
Western money. Funny thing.
I was in abu dabi in ‘91. Had occasion to go to Dubai, quite a bit different then
Was in Qatar many times in 2000s went downtown niece to tour the city, they had a copy of the Venetian it wasn’t that old and pullers out front already had cracks in them
Hope construction has got better
In the past I don’t doubt it. Now after divorce I would doubt it given all the negatives/risks with that.
Of course, nowadays we have no way of knowing if this is the truth or just something attributed to him (i.e., a lie).
“America can have cities as shiny and clean”
That would mean banning the Democratic Party—and of course that would not be very polite of us....
Lol.
Initially I can say thats probably right, its what you were used to. That doesnt last long.
The $2.7 million is an inside cabin with a view of the garbage chute.
Thirty years ago Dubai was desert...100%.
The good news is that most guys are happier than a billionaire like Gates. Either we can get a date or we have a long-term relationship via marriage.;-)
,,, that pic of the tower showing the Benz symbols clustered together looks like the grille on my 2015 CLA180 shooting brake. Now, Benz will no doubt sell these apartments easier than their electric cars.
And then the bill for the cotton came due.
If thieves’ hands were chopped off it would be amazing how quickly the cities could be restored.
Homo Sapiens can do amazing things if we stop shooting ourselves in the foot.
They all went, “um, no way!” when he suggested they sign the pre-nup.
“We used to build world class cities.
And then the bill for the cotton came due.”
Excellent point and very well put! Yep, we should have picked our own damn cotton!!
Places like Shanghai, Shenzhen, Hong Kong, Singapore, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, etc. make Manhattan, LA, SF look like the dump they’ve become.
As for Europe, they has no idea the trouble they’re buying themselves inviting all the africans and islamists to invade their country, though they definitely should. All they have to do is look at what’s become of us, and they didn’t even get any cotton picked!!
And to think whites used to kick ass and rule the world. We’ve become spineless, groveling, pathetic, self loathing creatures with not an ounce of pride and self respect. Such creatures will not long survive... nor do they deserve to.
We are guilting themselves into oblivion. At this rate, we’ll be the next Neanderthals.
See my tag line.
I think the real money (covert) is building bunkers in New Zealand and the islands just south of it.
I’m not sure if I’ll take two or three….
,,, Ted Turner bought a sufficient piece of land in Patagonia some years ago. Peter Thiel and Roman Abramovich bought in New Zealand. There’s more visa applications from high net worth individuals these days - and there are bunkers.
