Thinking investment

When I first came to Dubai, I could get Rs 13 for one dirham. Now, I barely get Rs 10. So, while I’m still making Rs 10 for every dirham I earn, I am also losing Rs 3. I hope that one day the dirham will be de-pegged from the dollar, the real villain of the piece, and rise to its former strength against the rupee. That’s not very patriotic. However, patriotism and money are two peas in a pod, not. So, I’m seriously considering giving in to the Dubai conspiracy: making sure what expats earn here, stays here.
