hey guys in this video i'm going to be
talking about side hustles in dubai now
dubai is a tricky country
to try to do side hustles because every
single side hustle
that you can do is already
either
exploited or
there's a company that is doing it
already it's very different from
europe or in the us where for example
you know you can go knock around your
neighborhood ask
your neighbors if they want a car wash
or
if their garden needs cleaning or
whatever here in dubai
you can't really do that because there's
car washes every 200 meters there's
companies that come knocking on your
door asking you if you want you know car
washes four five ten times a month for
pretty cheap as well you can get a car
wash for like 20 dirhams
and if you want exterior plus interior
it's 30 dirhams compared to for example
in europe where it's going to be five
euros which is like 25 dirhams and
there's one car wash in in the whole
city you know what i mean in the whole
village town whatever you want
the first side hustle that i think is
probably not the best one but you never
know it's basically on dubizzle if
you're familiar with two visual it's
like a used objects
you go there to sell used things
basically in dubai there's a category
called free stuff now most of the time
it's going to be just
you know trash or
things that are broken or that just have
no value
at all no no you can't really get any
money from it but
you can get lucky
and
you know find
just some things now the thing about
dubai is that
it's a country i mean it's a city but
that
has so much money that you know if
someone just wants to get rid of
something they'll just put on free stuff
but it can't have you know some
monetary value it can be worth something
for example i used it to
i bought some tiles
tiles and a bamboo fence that i had to
get rid of quickly and these tiles i
bought for i don't really remember it
was 500 to 2000 dirhams something like
that i had to get rid of the tiles
quickly because they were taking up
space and it was really heavy there was
about 100 tiles so i just wanted to get
rid of it quickly so i put on free stuff
there was someone at my door within two
hours
so
the only thing with this is you have to
be quick and you have to be lucky so the
barrier to entry for that is you know
zero you don't need any money
but it's gonna be hard to make a lot of
money with it
now
if you want something where you can make
a bit more money number two
i would say is very good for dubai
specifically but also uae in general
because it's very good in abu dhabi as
well would be buying and selling
mobile numbers so flipping numbers you
can buy numbers from from 500 dirhams to
millions anything in dubai can be worth
millions
um
but yeah so basically
what you need to do is
buy the number
there's a bunch of websites where
you list your number
and people go on there to to buy one
there's instagram pages there's snapchat
pages there's just word of mouth
i know plenty of people i've had people
ask me you know
where can i buy a number i want to buy a
number i've had people wanting to buy my
number my friends numbers especially for
people who are from dubai um you know
for emiratis is very important that's
for sure and also especially for
business owners so if you if you own a
company you put your number on it on an
ad or business card you're going to want
to have a memorable number a nice number
that a that a customer would would
remember what you need to do when buying
a number first of all you need to find a
good deal so you need to research
you need to
be able to know that
okay this number
it's a really good number but the price
is quite cheap compared to what's in the
market right now
so you actually you you have to do quite
a bit of research but
it's doable it's not that hard to
understand
what a good looking number is keep in
mind zero five five or zero five zero
will be premium numbers
so zero five eight or zero five two
uh will be a bit cheaper
and less valuable so if you don't know
that
now you know so
when you're buying a number as well
uh you're going to
want to buy a plan with it you have to
buy a plan with it
you can't just buy the number now having
a plan
it's an extra expense but it's you
basically you don't buy the price of the
number the price of the number is
included in the plan or the price of the
plan is included in the number that's
more like it so you're not actually
paying anything extra another reason why
you want to get a plan with the number
anyways
is because
you're going to have to use that number
so
if that now if you buy the number so you
get the sim card you don't use it for
i think it's three months you're gonna
get a message saying that please use the
number or it's gonna get cancelled
because someone's traveled or the the
sim card's broken or lost or whatever
that number is just gonna go back into
the market because after if if no one's
used it after
however many months
then you know
yeah now selling and buying numbers
is it's not that easy usually you'd want
to have a network of people that
are interested in that type of stuff and
you'd be surprised i mean i
i know some people that
i didn't think would be interested in
that and and then i see they have about
10 phones
they have about 10 phones that they
carry around
and just
call with
one text with the other
and then just sometimes give a call just
to keep the number alive and that guy's
not even selling the number i don't know
why he has 10 phones to be honest it
sounds a bit dodgy
but uh but yeah i mean you know
it's a big thing here in uae so yeah the
next thing number three
uh kind of goes hand in hand with the
phone numbers
would be plate numbers now it's probably
the
the next step it's a bit more expensive
but you can find some cheap ones i mean
a plate number for
2 500 derms
is not too bad now the only thing with
plate numbers is that
i'm not 100 sure how it works but once
you buy a plate number you're going to
want to register it with rta
i'm not sure if you can buy a plate
number
and then just wait until you sell it to
register it
i'm not 100 sure because i've never
actually done that i do count on making
another video to
explain that more in detail
uh i also want to try it i think would
be pretty funny and interesting to
do a challenge maybe 1 000 dirhams to
10 000 selling numbers
challenge or something like that
basically a challenge
trying to flip as many
phone numbers or plate numbers
as possible and make as much money from
it i think it would be quite interesting
to
to see how that goes and then document
everything so yeah that's pretty much it
guys thanks for watching
um
i'll try to find some more ideas and
come back with some more side hustles
but for now i think these are probably
the most unique and that would work the
best here in uae especially
most of my videos are going to be
related to dubai
or uae so yeah i'm trying to find new
content
specifically for dubai
so yeah thanks for watching
please give a like subscribe
