Wife and I are very interested in moving to UAE. My firm has no operations there, so it would mean I would need to switch. Joining a new firm is probably not the right move, so I would look to try to freelance. However, I have no contacts in UAE. Been there many times for holiday but never for business.

Any thoughts on how to enter the market?

My USP is they are investing in AI and I happen to be an expert with a PhD in ML from one of the top engineering schools, though I am a strat guy now.

If you have that PHD in an AI-related field, chances are you could look into getting a golden visa first, as that's one of the reasons they can offer one to you, it's one lf the sectors the UAE is most interested on. Finding a job having already the visa out of the way would make the process easier and faster for any potential employers

I DMed you with an opportunity

I second your thinking. I moved to KSA and was let go 1.5 years later. No regrets, but it was a gamble that didnt work out

Let’s say you have two young, high income partners in a couple who want to buy a house together but don’t really care to get married. They already live together in an apartment but both want to move to a house to build equity and have a yard, not share walls, etc. Should one partner buy the house and the other pays rent until they get married, or should they get a mortgage together without being married? I realize there isn’t a “right” answer but I’m interested in people’s experiences here.
