If you’re stuck in a career rut of a 9-5 job and have been wanting to make a change in your life, we have some good news that will give you the push in the right direction.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It’s time to\u00a0FREELANCE!\u00a0Yes, you read that right.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As per a new study conducted by a UK business site Expert Market<\/em><\/a>, UAE is one of the best countries in the world to become your own boss and go the freelancing route.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Other countries in the list<\/h3>\n

While the UAE came fourth in the list (which is pretty amazing tbh), the first, second and third spots were secured by\u00a0Hong Kong, the USA and South Korea respectively.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Here’s the full list<\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. Hong Kong<\/li>\n
  2. USA<\/li>\n
  3. South Korea<\/li>\n
  4. UAE<\/li>\n
  5. United Kingdom<\/li>\n
  6. Spain<\/li>\n
  7. New Zealand<\/li>\n
  8. Estonia<\/li>\n
  9. Bulgaria<\/li>\n
  10. Czech Republic<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    What makes UAE one of the best?<\/h3>\n

    The study compared 57 countries and took into consideration various factors including\u00a0cost of living, income tax, access to credit, average internet speed, transport networks, the availability of free wifi, the cost of a coffee, and the cost of starting a new business.<\/p>\n

    The study clearly\u00a0looks detailed and all-inclusive, plus if you take into account the tax-free incomes and emerging markets, it’s safe to assume that people living in the UAE can definitely switch careers to become full-time freelancers.\u00a0<\/p>\n

    What do ya think?<\/p>\n
