Story: I am originally from Lebanon but I was born & raised in Dubai. Dubai has given me everything from a home, education and security to a career and financial welfare. I am giving back to the UAE by investing my money here (bought an apartment) and by working closely with the UAE government on high profile projects. Thank you UAE 🇦🇪

Story: My name is Nathaniel Jimeno Ennis, I am 18 months old and born in Abu Dhabi, UAE. I am half Irish and half Filipino. My parents decided to open National Bonds Saving to give me a better future and to teach me about the importance of saving and how to use money at early age. I will follow their practice when I grow up. Thank you National Bonds for giving me this opportunity.

Story: New hope in a new place called to be home—- Dubai,UAE. As I start my journey in UAE there’s a lot of fear in my heart. I dont know where to start especially on savings.. but when we had one meeting in the ministry of human resources and emiratisation for the new employees of a private sector this is how I learned about the National Bonds. My salary is not that high so I just choose the 100 aed savings per month and if I have extra that’s the time I’ll just add up which is so easily because I downloaded their app so just one click you can add your bonds. I won three times for the 50 aed and recently won 100 aed. Yes,It’s just a small amount but everytime I receive a notifications or a message in my phone that I won its like I won a million or a tesla even just a small amount. It brings a smile on a tiring day from work and a hope that someday you can also have that good car or a million. And if not atleast you have a savings.

It is a big adjustment to me and to my family. While working Nov. 1, 2020 i got email from Dubai Duty Free that i got lay off End of Contract, because of the pandemic the company need to reduce staff. I feel down that time.

I started my life in UAE with a salary of 1200 Dirhams in 1995. and worked hard to improve my skills and moved in different careers, starting from translator, to insurance underwriter for 6 years then moved to the Academic field in 2000. when i graduated from University, the last thing i could imagine myself doing is to be a teacher, but ironically, I worked as a teacher for Business studies from 2003 till 2015 when i decided to use my skills as an Economics teacher in a different field and since then I moved my career to become Economist at the Embassy of United Arab emirates in Sweden. This journey enabled me to build a vast network of contacts and also a massive knowledge in various aspects of business life.

Story: I am always considered to be the smartest & most compassionate one in the family, due to this my mother has given me for adoption to my aunt as her husband passed away when I was very young. Everyone always was optimistic from me to be a doctor and earn big and quickly as we needed it. I could not clear the medical exams and went ahead with doing MBA. I started working in my country on quite low salary, i worked there for 5 years with almost zero increment. My brother used to enquire about how i am managing in such small salary and i have always replied to Alhamdulillah, Allah made it easy for me. I came here in UAE in 2012 in hope of finding a job, but nothing clicked and i had to go back to my home country. It was not my time. My father had brain stroke in 2014, his half body was paralyzed. I came back again in 2015 to UAE with high hopes, 2 months passed, nothing happened, my visit visa was about to expire. Alhamdulillah, Allah has different plans for me this time, i got a project to work for 3 months. I went home to change my visa and started on this project, after 3 months, Alhamdulillah I got another project in the same organization. Time passed on and became contractual employee there. My father was always too proud of me, i got a permanent contract in the same organization but unfortunately a day after my father passed away. If i look back now, it has been 11 years of my official career, i have come such a long way, Alhamdulillah, for Allah has made this so easy. Forever grateful to Allah
