This is off topic, but could you imagine how quickly Saudi Arabia could become a mega power if they invested in research/development instead of luxury? Seriously, their entire economy is based on this: 1) sell oil 2) buy luxury from other countries. (and everyone else in the country sort of supports that structure) If the kings and princes instead invested in...I don't know...science...or even just researching/developing/building their own brand of car...they would have easily been a world power by now. Instead, their only lasting grip on the world is the fact that they're sitting ontop of the oil.

[–]mightbetrolling 6 points7 points ago

But they do... (sarcasm)

I visited the saudi embassy when I was in DC and they showed me what amounted to a propaganda film about their country, saying how they were lead developers of things like the internet and water purification and medical advances.

[–]godin_sdxt 7 points8 points ago

As a Saudi, I couldn't agree with you more. But recently after the new king took over in 2005 there have been new investments and improvements. So hopefully this continues.

Are you two just going to copy and the top comments from the previous time this was posted? Let me join you...

"That you put a king in charge may be the bottleneck."

I also like the next response so I'll post that too.

"Not if the king is good. Good king means no beaurocratic bullshit."

[–]DEXECON 1 point2 points ago

I live in saudi arabia and I agree with you completely but the problem isn't the lack of investment its the corruption that's stopping us from becoming a mega world power or whatever.

Have you ever seen someone investing a billion dollers on a single tunnel? And the at the first sight of rain BAM galf the tunnel collapses? Its fucking embarassing!!!

Also to OP the jokes old I mean really old heard it first 5 years ago and its been circulating ever since surfacing every once in a while

They are aware of that. The Kaust university is a good example, 10 billions just for research, no questions asked. But innovation and religious bigotry don't mix so well.

Heh, I live in an area with a lot of wealthy college kids from out of the country like this. They all drive really gaudy mustangs and other American cars. They're usually super nice though. One guy who worked for me was friends with one, and the kid would just let him borrow his car all the time. He drove it to work.

This guy just started asking me if I were from there, then created a shit-ton of accounts to ask me. I always said, "No, but I get that a lot." Finally he came clean and told me he was the only one asking me. I best'of'd it because I thought it was funny and it took off from there.

[–][deleted] -3 points-2 points ago

Hmm, because they're paid [for oil] in US Dollars?

Also you can easily pay in Euros using your Visa/Mastercard from a foreign currency account. The banks automatically do all the math and currency exchange for you... Have you traveled in Europe?

[–]madguava 0 points1 point ago

Not Europe, but yes, Asia and South America. I understand how this works; I was attempting humor.

This true, Saudi Arabia 's citizens should be living like Americans with the wealth of oil extracted from their lands for decades. But they are not; because it ALL went to the royal cocksuckers, while the peasants are living as poor as they did centuries ago.

[–]Pigeon_Logic 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I imagine when they run out of islands, they'll just make more.

Oil tycoons are known for that already.

edit: unless you mean the non-rich people living there. ohohoho like the oil moguls give a shit about them.

[–]Turicus 4 points5 points ago

That is why some of them are building skyscrapers, malls, a huge airport as a freight and passenger hub between Europe, Africa and Asia, beaches, research centres, alternative energy, sports and convention centres and more. They know it will run out eventually, but at the same time they now have loads of money to invest. Some of them are actually trying to diversify. Not all very successfully...

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yeah, I don't know if that's a good investment or not. I believe building infrastructure like Dubai has done is potentially viable in the long term. If you build it they will come, but will they stay?

However the passenger hub is highly dubious, when I travel from Europe to Asia I don't need to go through Dubai... It's either Amsterdam, London, Paris or Frankfurt.

So much space, sun, and a decent breeze? Fields of that shit all over. They could feasibly power Europe if they can move the energy to them.

As long as they don't blow all of their oil money, they could go for solar panels... wasn't there some infographic that said just a small fraction of the sahara desert could power the entire world if it was covered in solar panels?

[–]im_not_greg 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Transmitting that much power from one centralized location is inefficient enough to put a dent in any such plans.
