I don’t know what to do with my money

I just recently started making good money and I some how managed to close a commodity deal for diesel en590 which is a 12 month contract, I received the first months commission Jan 15 and will receive this months commission on feb 17, I don’t want to take on the responsibility of handling my finances myself as investing in stocks and other things seem too complicated for me(I know my limits). If I were to handle it myself I would want to go with something simple like real estate where I can just invest the entire amount over the 12 month period. I already have savings and don’t want my lifestyle to creep upwards until I can just live off the income from my investments. Any advice would be appreciated.

Where to Buy OG Sneakers for Cheap in Dubai?

Hey everyone,

I’m looking for a good spot in Dubai to grab some OG sneakers for a decent price. Are there any outlets or stores that offer legit kicks at lower prices? Maybe factory outlets or hidden gems that aren’t too mainstream?

Etisalat Neo without Router

I’m looking at Etisalat Neo 1gbps connection and I typically replace the provided routers with my own anyway. Has anyone ordered Neo without the router? How do they terminate their connection? What type of connection do they require to be configured (PPPoE, DHCP, Static IP, etc)? Just want to understand what’s needed from my equipment. I know I can ask them, but would appreciate some inputs from customers too.

Courtscase against supplier non delivery of goods - he closed his company now

A supplier owes us approx 900k AED due to non delivery of goods. We took him to court and currently the "expert/specialist" is reviewing the case.
We understood that the supplier is currently closing down his company.

What could be done in such case? Is the General Manager/Owner liable? Can we claim from them?

Is Learners Point a good place to get certified to get jobs?

I saw a TikTok video suggesting learners point,an online or in person learning institution, is good for getting jobs and I gave my details on their website and their sales rep called me and offered me a discount of 3000 aed for a 36 hour “premium course” with a possibility of internship opportunities if I pay for premium, but I’m not sure if that’s the way to go. What do you think?

Making new friends

24M. Been here in UAE most of my life and had many friends growing up but as time passed on so did my friends. They either moved to a different country or got other responsibilities and it’s been hard to find new friends or meet people. I would love to meet new people

I like 2 women : A chubby girl and a girl who checks all the right boxes

I'm a 26M. I like 2 girls are wonderful people.

But my sinful nature really repels me away from someone who isn't toned/fit or is in an unhealthy shape. I connect with her well, she looks up to me and we enjoy speaking to each other.

On the other hand, there's a girl who ticks all the boxes. We enjoy speaking to each other and we have had healthy conversations of our principles. Although, we haven't also come to the point where we've seen each other in our worst and real sides.

Not like I have a decision to make here, but I fear leading these lovely women on. I don't want to ruin/break either of their hearts by what I want. But considering we're getting older I'd like to settle on a girl.

The first girl, tbh her size is the only thing that doesn't give me peace about. I'm guilty of how that sounds and the reality of how bad it is to see someone like that. The fact that I think like this today, should be a sign for me that I should rather stop talking to her cause my heart has seen a flaw that I find hard to accept.

The second, is wife material, she's everything what I would want. Just that we haven't built a foundation YET to go beyond liking each other.

What's your advice or take on this?

Advice on Getting a Career in Dubai (Civil Engineering/Construction)

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for advice on transitioning my career to Dubai.

I graduated from a Canadian university in 2018 with a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering (specializing in construction, building science, and project management) and a minor in business. Since then, I’ve been working for a small general contracting company, handling project management, estimating, and sales. I also hold a PMP certification.

I’m planning to move to Dubai in April 2025 and want to secure a job in construction, project management, or a related field before or shortly after arriving.

Some questions I have:

How is the job market for construction/project management professionals in Dubai?

What are the best job portals or recruiters to connect with?

Are there any certifications or credentials that could improve my chances?

Would it be better to apply remotely or visit Dubai and job hunt in person?

Any networking groups or communities I should join?

If you’ve made a similar move or have any insights, I’d really appreciate your advice. Thanks in advance!

Hyundai Tucson 2022 windshield replacement.

Anyone know any good garage where i can replace the windshield of my car for a good price?

There's a place in Sharjah that does it for AED 550/- European first copy. Is it worth it? Any downsides if anyone has got it done?

Original is costing around AED 1700/-
