I am in a friggin different league than most of you. How many of you can put hand on heart and say they were making 110k+GBP at the age of 30? I am doing that for past 2.5 years, so dont come judging me or comparing me to your lowly selves.

I wanted to give an honest advice. Stay on the breadline or survive out in ME with about 20 to 30k in his pocket every year (according to his own calculations earlier in the post). I would pick ME any day compared to being on the dole, when everything seems to be going south in Blighty. Call me selfish but I am an investment wanker and that's how we roll.

Your post has so many character revealing traits its hard to see which one is the most dominant:

insecure both in career and status
possibly racist
disdain towards poorer elements of society

Take your pick.

If you are just on a wind up, you have peaked too early

And before you judge I dont think anyone on here has posted what they earn on this board........

At least if you are on the dole in the UK you can have accommodation and feed yourself, here you get **** all and he wont have 20-30k in his pocket as people have pointed out.

I would go to Dubai if I was you that's where most of the egotistical no marks in the UK end up

I was BORN in the Middle East. I spent 3 years of my life in the Middle East, but that was 9 years ago. This is why I came here to understand how the cost of living has changed to be able to make my decision.

Now, as someone a few years your junior, it gives me great pleasure to tell you to grow up you tidalwavecunt.
