Thats sort of why they are building it anyways. Certain people and countries want an income after the oil either dries up or is no longer as needed.
If they can no longer be the crack dealer they will be the whore house. Sort of like Vegas.

Pretty impressive to actually see countrie's economies functioning and planning for the future like that.

Can't say that's something we're seeing here in the good 'ol USA.

Pornwolf · 10-14-2007, 08:21 PM

It's not gonna stop.

If you get a free moment book a flight ASAP. The best time to visit is late fall, winter, early spring.

jact · 10-14-2007, 08:21 PM

Watching it now too, very interesting...

Didn't realize the labor issues were so bad. Should be interesting to see what happens in 5 years. Will there be more ghost towns in the middle of the ocean?

RawAlex · 10-14-2007, 08:26 PM

I give the dudes running Dubai credit: They are smart enough to see the end coming and are working to get past that, trying to turn the zone into a tourist destination AND a financial powerhouse. They are working hard to attract insurance, financial, and such to the country, including buying into stock exchanges.

They know that the oil gravy train is coming to an end, and they need to be something more or they will end up back as nomadic camel herders again.

DaddyHalbucks · 10-14-2007, 08:27 PM

It is an amazing place. I think I would like to visit.

Seems more like a rich playground than somewhere people go to seek employment .. unless you're in the oil business or park Mercedez for a living, what else is there?

too bad more middle eastern countries don't think like that. the only other one I know of is isreal

gecko · 10-14-2007, 08:45 PM

That place is like paradise

WiredGuy · 10-14-2007, 08:52 PM

I'd love to travel there and see it, it looks incredible.

Calico Jack · 10-14-2007, 08:56 PM

My mother was there a week ago stopping off after 6 weeks in France & Italy...she said it was the most amazing, most luxurious place she'd been too. She also made mention she's never seen so much marble...the hotels, shopping centers and airport are just lined with miles of the stuff.
Would love to go there myself.

fris · 10-14-2007, 08:58 PM

saw the 60 min piece, very interesting

peterk · 10-14-2007, 09:04 PM

Awesome place for a great vacantion

here mis the article and video from 60 minutes

VERY KOOL

Drake · 10-15-2007, 08:57 AM

It'll have to be somewhat affordable if they want to keep all those hotels and big attractions packed with tourists. But if they become a hub for more large businesses, tourism will just be the icing on the cake. According to wikipedia, they've already made the transition from an oil-based dependent economy to a business economy. Oil revenue accounts for 3% of revenue there.

From a layperson's point of view, I can't wait to check it out.

ridiculous amounts of nightclubs, restaurants, etc. i have restaurant and club management experience that would translate nicely to that area. could easily mak 150k a year as a gm for a restaurant or nightclub there. many more things that could be done there as well. the glass is half full in dubai. you'd wanna get there before its all full.

ShellyCrash · 10-15-2007, 09:02 AM

The Berg Al Arab (sp?) looks absolutely gorgeous. I'd love to go there some day, but for the money I'd rather spend a longer time somewhere less posh.

StuartD · 10-15-2007, 09:05 AM

An old college classmate of mine hosts morning television in Dubai.
I should see if I could go visit her some time.

TeenCat · 10-15-2007, 09:06 AM

very nice place, want to see how they will handle all that non-salt water needs in that geographical location ;)

David! · 10-15-2007, 09:11 AM

Wonder why they have to import slave labor from India and Bangladesh and only pay them $5 a day.
Sure you got illegals in the US working for cheap, but $5 an hour sure is better than $5 a day.
I thought I was a cheap Jew, but I guess Sultans are even worst!

Yeah engineering and architectural feats beyond comparison going on. That alone is intriguing enough to want to go there.
