There has probably not been a bigger symbol or abundance and prosperity as Dubai since Roman times. Dubai has become a playground for the World's Super Rich. It's like the equivalent of Disney Land. Where did all that abundance and prosperity come from? Well, fortunately a lot of the World Wealth has come from free-enterprise and those who've built businesses that provide to the world.
In Dubai's case much of the money came from oil profits and loans based on those future profits. Right now oil prices are down and will not go back up for a while, worse banks have stopped lending, construction has stopped, housing is crashing, and it's all falling apart. This should be a lesson to individuals to not borrow more than they know they can pay back in the future.
True prosperity and abundance is not borrowed, it is solid, and its foundation is without question. This is not the case in Dubai and it is a lesson you must learn and learn to live by. Earned abundance, wealth, and prosperity is a sign of strength. Unfortunately, a lot of wealth attained has not come from performance, entrepreneurs, or their superstar heritage; but rather from luck, manipulation, and theft without ever having been earned. This is a problem.
Build abundance in your life; build it on a foundation of integrity, strength of character, and not on borrowed time or future trappings. When you borrow money to buy the illusion of prosperity and abundance you do a disservice to yourself, your family, and you'll never respect those things you have. Don't do it like Dubai, don't pretend and live a lie. Think on this.
