Re:Good Budget
Hey Stasy sounds exciting mate. I have been in NZ for the last few days with one of my new suppliers. We now have a 5 year exclusive on the product for Australia. And if it goes well will get Asia as well.

Business is fun when its expanding isn't it.

Still having some interesting cashflow times at the moment though !!!

Re:Good Budget
Sounds like a fantastic opportunity Statsy.
I say do it. Living internationally broadens the mind, and can only be a positive for your kids too. I'm assuming your mum gets along well with your wife, so I'd recommend that too. If your wife wants to work, it'll be a positive for her, as Dubai can be a lil' cloistered for women (I have a friend who went there from Japan for teaching. Made a killing)...

Re:Good Budget
Don, yes to all of the q's. They will be one of my suppliers. So effectively i will be working with them for the benefit of my own company, while enjoying the perks of free flying etc. They have also offered child minding incase my wife wants to work as well. But, it seems financially we wont need to. But my mum just offered to come over and be the full time nanny, so we are considering that option as well.

Re:Good Budget
A few questions stats:
Do the wife & kids go? And do the company pay for them & accommodation? Do you get a few free trips home during the contract period? Is there a completion bonus?

Re:Good Budget
hey loki

i hope u have fun on ur conference trip.

i went to a uni open day today.

i've decided that i no longer want to do psych. i think i'll do a biology degree and venture out into genetics and the genome project. seems really really interesting.

dad was saying today that in Dubai if u work in a good industry, u can get filthy rich. so stasty it already sounds like a good move to go over.

Re:Good Budget
Stats, one of the girls i work with is moving to Dubai on the 27th of Sept, she just got back after hooking up with her fiancee who drives trucks aa a contractor for Military over there. General word from her is that it seems to be a good enough place but shes only seen a bit of it. Shes been sussing out rental prices and property scene and it seems to be somewhat affordable if you have the disposable income to spend.

Re:Good Budget
looking in to it. It wont happen straight away, as logistically there is a lot to do when you have a business. I am going there to work on a new supplier. The goal is that i step in as gM of the business, and with that i get exclusive rights to the products in Australia. So i get a double win. The only downside is having someone else run my company for me while i am away, Which will be a minimum of two years. They will still answer to me, and have weekly meetings via net conference, but not quite the same.

Is anyone on here from Dubai?
