Alot of my friends back home keep asking me if I feel safe here in Dubai. I keep telling them that they need to read their local papers and see if they are safe in the US? Last weekend when I was home in Columbus, there were 3 murders in the news as I drove into town on Monday morning--and another 2 had been solved over the weekend.
In contrast, murder and most other major crimes (and petty crimes) are pretty rare here in Dubai. There aren't really any parts of town that you would fear to travel. So I feel pretty safe and comfortable here...or I did until I saw that I may need Insurance for my GOLF GAME!!!
While waiting at the insurance office to get car insurance, I noticed a brochure for golf insurance.
For 250 aed (about $70) you get coverage for any damages your golf game may inflict upon the innocents of this world. You are covered for property damage, bodily injury, permanent disablement and/or accidental death to your 'caddy' or other persons on the golf course. If you suffer a dibilitating injury that keeps you from said threat of inflicting golf injury or damage, you will be reimbursed pro-rata for your membership fees. Also covered is accidental loss or damage of clubs, bags, and other golf equipment (excludes balls, sadly).
Also insured is your bar tab, in the event that you score a hole-in-one.
