I have for 25 years but fortunately have only lived in two places and highest payout was 47K about 7 years ago. Been very fortunate and thankful for that.

Re: So Dubai's gonna defualt
I just got a call from Regent Intl School actually offering my son a place for the upcoming term.
We alreadydecided to go with AD instead, but this seemed curiously timed. They must know some students won't be coming back and fewer are headed for Dubai so now is the time to get aggressive and secure students.
Funny how things change.

The president of the United Arab Emirates has moved to try to reassure the shaken nerves of investors.
Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed al-Nahayan issued a statement saying the UAE economy was in good condition.
He also praised Dubai's leader, saying he managed daily "achievements". The Sheikh's comments come after almost a week of market turmoil

I read that article and laughed. Daily achievements like what? Getting out of bed? Searching for coins down the back of the sofa?
