I wish man, these streets are not paved in gold like the media paints it. But there are definitely a tremendous amount of opportunity for those looking for the right venture.

What ***** up alot of americas out here is not understanding the laws here (which benefit the locals of course) and working with the wrong people. Alot of fraud and scams go on in Dubai you have to really careful.

Appreciate it. Funny story I met Busta Rhymes when he came to Dubai. Dude had a show at some RANDOM club and he was out and about in the city.

Funny thing is out here a celebrity (not talking about super famous like Kanye or JT ) can mob around without people tripping. I've seen alot of pro athletes out and about.

Btw Im located in TX and our housing market is actually quite decent and is steadily improving. Im looking to own some rental houses and flip a few houses. I also want to get into stocks and get a lot of knowledge about the finance industry. Where should I begin, what are some good jobs to look for?
 
Just for future perspectives - venture and real estate couldn't be further from eachother as an asset class.
 
Your question on jobs are too subjective. In regards to investing in stocks. You will learn alot by reading books and trading and probaility. My personal favorite, how to make money I stocks by William O'neal

As lazy J said real estate is far off from stocks. If you want rental property find out how to leverage money borrowed in your name or get into a small REIT or maybe start your own.
