 Why Dubai? Why have I been suggesting that you may want to move to Dubai for six months to live and work making videos and saving money on taxes? In this video we're going to go over everything we learned about Dubai to help you make a better decision. I have notes and you can read them down there in the description below. Reason one, there is a YouTube space right here in Dubai. There are only ten YouTube spaces in the entire world and we have one right here that is 30 minutes or less driving distance from anywhere you may happen to live in Dubai. Everything is 30 minutes or less driving distance. Oh and it's a little hot, as you can see my glasses are fogging up. Let's try it without the glasses. Everything can be delivered to your home, grocery stores deliver, McDonald's even delivers. You can live and work in the same building or very nearby. There is a lot of available space for rent both residential and commercial and we've been looking at a tower that I can live on the 22nd floor and have an office on the 25th floor. My commute three floors. I've never had that level of convenience anywhere in the world. What is a free zone? That's where you can set up your company and own it 100%. A free zone allows a hundred percent foreign ownership whereas a normal company in Dubai requires 51% to be owned by a local resident of the United Arab Emirates, the UAE which is the country where Dubai exists. But these free zones have been created to allow external investors to come and set up their companies, enjoy the zero tax environment and own 100% of their company. By zero tax I mean both personal income tax is zero and corporate income tax is zero here in Dubai and not just Dubai across the entire UAE. How does the government make money if not from income taxes? They do it from service fees and the fees you pay to maintain your company. It's basically a fixed fee model where they make a certain amount of money from everybody and not a percentage of your profits. I personally prefer that model don't you? We already created our first free zone company, my company, George Technology FZCO which stands for Free Zone Company in the Dubai Silicon Oasis Free Zone. I am paying less than 200 US dollars a month for my office because it's an open space shared office in the D-Tech facility and you can do exactly the same thing. Pay 180 US dollars a month about for your shared office to be able to have your own company to work in. What about other costs of living? What about residential? What about food? What about transportation? Taxis are everywhere and so is Uber. Uber is about twice as expensive as a taxi. If I want to go shopping I typically pay five US dollars to get with a taxi from where I want to be to where I want to go. Because there's a lot of available space you can choose exactly where you want to live. Do you want to live near a mall? Do you want to live near a park? Do you want to live near your office or a school if you have children? All of these are decisions you can make to minimize your travel time. What if you want your own dedicated office and let's say you want to hire employees? Office space in a prime location in JLT the Jumeirah Lake Towers which have 80 high-rise towers around three lakes. They are man-made artificial lakes they're not natural lakes and one park. In that prime location you can get office space for a $1.50 USD per square foot per month and that is where we are looking to get our office space. Remember I already have a shared office in DTEC but of course that's just for me. If we want to hire employees or sponsor some of you to come live and work in Dubai we need more office space. So we're looking at JLT as a prime location. You can also rent in the JLT for about the same price a $1.50 per square foot per month USD. You can also pay more if you want to live in a fancier place like in a hotel apartment that is another option we are looking at where you get everything that a hotel offers and about a 50% increase in living costs. So instead of a $1.50 per square foot you'd be paying about $2.25-$2.30 per square foot. What about the cost of groceries and food? One thing that really surprised me is orange juice. You can get fresh squeezed OJ. They squeeze the oranges right in front of you for $3 USD a liter. That's all I drink guys now is fresh squeezed orange juice because it's so cheap here. Other groceries average out to about the same price that you'd be paying in a grocery store in Vancouver or in Robinsons in the Philippines. Is Dubai an expensive city? Yes, if you live like a tourist. Dubai has the world's only seven-star hotel. So if you stay there you'll be paying a lot of money. Dubai is all about number one. They have the world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa. They have the world's largest mall, the Dubai Mall with a ski slope. Dubai is a desert. Why not bring in snow so we can ski in the desert? Dubai is all about number one. So if you want to go to all those places you're going to be paying a lot of money. But Dubai is not an expensive city if you live here like a local and not a tourist. As I mentioned, office space, residential, food, taxis, all the things you need to live and work are very affordable if you compare it to any other developed city like Vancouver or even Eastwood City where we live in the Philippines. What about residents? Is it easy to become a permanent legal resident of Dubai? Yes it is. This is what we are learning by going through the experience ourselves. I will be a permanent resident of Dubai very soon. So will my family, so will my brother. We will be able to live and work here in the country, enjoy the zero tax status for both personal and corporate income tax, and be able to live a normal life with all the luxuries that we would expect in our own home country. Is this right for you? Well that's why we're creating this thing called the freedom experience because we want to do all that hard work for you. Getting visas, getting a place to stay, getting an office to make videos, giving you everything you need to be able to just buy a plane ticket and come here and then we guide you every step of the way. That's the point of the freedom experience. Will it cost you a lot of money? At first we want to target the people who it'll be free for. You'll pay zero for it. Why? Because you won't pay any taxes. So if you're paying $50,000 a year in taxes or $100,000 US dollars a year in taxes, why not just come here and you basically use the same tax money to live and work and you get money left over. You will save money. This is the whole point of the freedom experience. A tax reduction strategy where you can even increase your quality of life and pay nothing extra than where you're currently living. Now this is not for everyone. As I've mentioned in previous episodes US citizens get taxed on worldwide income wherever they live. There is a small reduction you get by living outside the country but it's not that much. But if you're a resident of Canada, UK, Australia, Germany and many other countries in the world who don't tax on worldwide income if you don't live in that country for more than six months of the year then yes you can take advantage of everything I've described in this video by joining us here in the freedom experience. Now you can do all of it yourself. You don't have to work with us. You can just do exactly what we're doing and figure it all out yourself. But why do that when we've already done it and we can share it with you.

You give them one or two choices and that's best. Okay. Is there anything else you want to say about Dubai? Yes, it's really hot. So I'm so nice and it's so fancy. This place is so fancy.
