If you ever get up $1M in cash
Buy a new modern apartment in the UAE for like $550k (you have zero property tax). Once you own it, it’s actually yours, and the only thing you pay is utilities and internet. No property tax, no municipality bs, no random fees like in other countries.
If you invest a minimum of 2M AED ($544k aprox) in real estate, you also get a golden visa. The Golden Visa gives you long-term residency (up to 10 years), full freedom to live, work, and do business, sponsor your family, easy banking and property ownership, unlimited entry and exit, major tax advantages, plus access to 24/7 government and consular services abroad through UAE embassies.
You can get a really nice car for $50-100k (if you even need one), and put the rest into a relatively safe ~10-13% APY Solana DeFi portfolio. That’s an easy $30k-$50k per year without touching principal.
Moving crypto in the UAE or spending it is insanely easy. You can convert crypto to cash or gold almost anywhere, or even buy cars and properties directly with crypto.
You won’t necessarily live a mega-luxury life, but you’ll be FREE. No capital gains tax, no property tax, no shady governments adding friction to your life.
With $3k/month, you can live extremely comfortably and still keep leveling up and compounding wealth from there.
The worst thing you can do is upgrade your lifestyle in a country that will bleed you with taxes and endless business obstacles. If you have $1M but stay in a country that penalizes winners, you’ll most likely stay a slave, just in a higher tax bracket.
