I am like you, I would imagine we will still be here or maybe another Emirate. I can't see me going to work either. I think that is all behind me. Might develop the DWC into something bigger and better though.

Re: Ten years from now ....
6 years ago when we arrive in Doha, we plan 10 years, nearly finish our 6th now, and so far we love it. I guess we will still be here 10 years later under presents circumstances.
MM, i like HK or Singapore too. It is nice to live there when you have money ... If you don't then you doomed :D |

Re: Ten years from now ....
It's a toss up between Kazakstan, SA or China. A nice mixed bag!

But again if the husband can earn top $$$ there ... why not? Last time i read in Singapore local paper, they are shortage of banker. I rather to have Singapore weather than Qatar if you can choose. But then again beggers can not be choosers. |

MM, xx I was being offered Dh2,500 a pop to write press releases on a freelance basis. I did a few but got bored. If I was to count the number of good writers in PR in Dubai I wouldn't need to take my shoes off. |
