    It's been a rough year with losses from failed banks and government, real estate crashes, a struggling economy, and downturns in stocks and dividends. It feels like everything has been going wrong.
    What a terrible year it is…

      A financial professional you work with could really prepare you for life. I'm glad I was able to get in touch with my coach Samuel Peter Descovich earlier this year because I was actively cashing out from my portfolio and finally earned over 370k just in the first quarter while everyone else was complaining about the downturn.Samuel Peter Descovich helped pay down our debt and save up for retirement.

      That is why I work with Samuel Peter Descovich, who introduced me to a better Financial community, a verified agency where I learned how money works and how to create it, as well as free books, courses, and daily lectures.
      You also get to meet new people, which was the best decision I ever made.

      Samuel Peter Descovich is the go-to financial advisor during market turmoil. With his expertise, I made over $220K, revealing hidden market opportunities. Having an investment counselor is crucial, especially for those nearing retirement.

      There are good days and bad days. It's a zero-sum game, but keep this advice in mind: spend wisely, invest wisely, and diversify your holdings so that when one performs poorly, the others do well.
      This can be accomplished by hiring a knowledgeable specialist like Samuel Peter Descovich whose platform provides a wide range of investment options. By doing so, you leave little room for regrets and may even gain more.

      And btw Funding started in 2021 itself but no one was ready to join as no one would have watched the league, but Ronaldo being the most influential athlete and football player he can influence people to start watching Saudi league, and players only agree after knowing that if Ronaldo is playing in that league then it is guaranteed to be watched by people all over the world.

    I don't know whether it will succeed in the re-branding exercise. The thing is, Saudi Arabia did try to re-brand itself by getting a spot on the Gran Prix calendar, but the drone attack by Yemen on a nearby refinery cast dark aspersions and ended up generating massively negative publicity on the matter. Also, even in WWE, the Saudis had a good re-branding start with the "Crown Jewel" series of matches, but a billing dispute and associated retaliation escalated into a massive standoff between the Saudis and the WWE organizers, which again cast a shadow on Saudi reputation. Thus, the Saudi attempts at massive investments in the world of sports are hampered multiple times over by internal corruption, external attacks, or just the previous reputation of the Saudis.
    Also, coming to the money part, what Saudi Arabia is doing, especially in the case of professional sports, is throwing in HUGE amounts of money, offering professional players huge payouts, and lighter seasons. This was done in the field of Golf, where Saudi investment firms created LIVGolf to compete with the US PGA. The PGA resisted, but in the end, it gave way. This was covered in the Wendover Productions video "Saudi Arabia’s Plan to Conquer Global Golf" in extremely deep detail.
    The problem with such an approach is that there is no local team with players built from the ground up at the local level, so once these players fade away or move away to other leagues, the interest in Saudi Arabia fizzles out.

    I have lived in Saudi Arabia since childhood, and despite discussions about human rights concerns worldwide, the majority of Saudi's population are content with the government. The government does provide essential services and benefits like subsidising various things without imposing income taxes. However, open criticism or dissent against the government is not permitted. Through private conversations with many Saudis, I have found that while few of them have minor concerns about some policies, overall they are happy with the functioning and are supportive of the government, especially the youth.

    I saw many videos of you criticising Arab world and as an Arab i want to say your propaganda against Arabic countries is hilarious and not very objective and i will tell you why , Arabic countries are very connected to each other culturally so they do not have any race problems or language barrier which make them more close , Saudi Arabia is a very rich country with a young generation so their global mindset is modern which will help them more to develop , Saudi Arabia is a muslim Hub so they have a backup from many countries and it is not easy to conquer them . last but not least Saudi arabia is a strategical ally to India because of the Indian Diaspora in SA and the relations between the countries which also at some point very close in terms of economy but most important culture maybe i can say we have the same style of life and the same approach of how we choose to live not like the West which is different , and to be honest we Arabs see Indiia as a family because we share history it is not only about money and benefits . if you will speak about Religion issues we have a mixed society of Christians , muslims , jews which is mostly the same in india because many thinks that arabic means muslims and that is not the same like in Pakistan ( they are not arabs but they are muslims ) which we Arabs do not accept heir politics based on religious separations and terrorism to distabalise other countries like India , by the way Saudi Arabia stopped most of their financial aid to Pakistan because of that .
    you can criticise as long as you want and focus only on weakness but in that way it is a propaganda not a criticism but the overall view of arabic countries to India is based on respect of a great nation like India not on skin colour or history and i hope that you understand my point ....

    What about the crazy traffic they get for hajj or umrah?
    How much does that contribute to the economy?

    In Africa we use to think that Indians were our brothers through common experience of colonisation, we sent our son's and daughters to India to study, only for them to be abused. Indians should remember that we have 3 millions Indians in our countries, please treat our people well, because we treat your people well. India is the size of a single African country, be humble.
