My coworker who is also a teacher just came back from the capital of Qatar, Doha about 2 months ago. He was planning to stay there for over a year to teach but decided to return because he was treated like dirt. He taught high school students science classes and he said that the school was pure evil and no one listened to his suggestions.. he was over worked and underpaid. A lot of slavery, unpaid wages, and human rights issues in Doha, Qatar. If you're a foreigner and you're not White, they think you're a construction worker or one of them slaves for the rich. Well, what do you expect when the law system is based on a Qur’an? Gas is cheap though, he said that it cost 17 cents a litre and a taxi ride is pretty cheap 2 dollars US, but it was cheaper when he just started working there, it was only 1 dollar US.

He said that once you visit Qatar and work, and you're planning to leave the country, you can NEVER return to visit or work in Qatar anymore. A lot of stuff is banned in Qatar including Facebook. Although the trip was worthwhile as he found a girlfriend in Qatar.... she's Scottish though.

You guys must be living in the big dense city. I drive to work and I pass by horse crossing signs and I see people riding horses on the road.

That's pretty funny..I would give that man a nice handshake. He obviously knows how to care for his cars. And $46K is change he found under his bed that morning.

What's interesting though is the increased risk of damage to the car with all that transporting around vs. flying in the technicians, or even hiring them away to be his personal team for years to come. But hey, I guess you don't have to be a brain surgeon to have money so to each his own. I second the comment that a real baller would have just bought a new car

mrwma237 · 08-01-2008, 10:59 AM

He sure is a baller...but he is certainly a dumbass as well. I mean..like one of the other guy said..just hired those Lambo techs to do the job in house. The time wasted, the paperwork involved, the potential risk of not seeing your car again, and all that mumbo jumbo pr work to put your car on a plane doesn't serve any value.

Shouldn't he be rich enough to do this privately, to fly his car? Who is this douchebag anyway.

Androo000 · 08-03-2008, 12:51 AM

too bad money cant buy taste. just look at that ruined beauty of a machine.

Los Angeles · 08-03-2008, 01:00 AM

That's just ONE of his Lambos.

He's got 100 other exotics in a 30,000 sqft. warehouse on his 60 acre property.

swamp2 · 08-03-2008, 01:06 AM

Baller...nope. I can't believe no one is talking about the HIDEOUS custom paint job this dork has. All that ugly yellow including the mirrors on a beautiful Lamborghini? WTF? Another shining example of money not buying taste.
