If You Can Buy a Labubu, Why Not Invest in This Property?

Dubai is a city that revolves around its image as being luxurious; it's just a part of everyday life, and it's not a rare thing to see people spending hundreds and thousands on the spot on things that simply bring them happiness. Whether it's a rare collectible like a Labubu, the new limited-edition sneakers that were released, or a more luxurious Happy Meal, there's a demand for exclusivity and an enhanced experience. But just imagine, if you have the eye and budget to keep up with collectible culture, then why not try your hand at looking for something that also pays you back?

Let’s take a look at these toys that have wreaked havoc all over the world right now. These mischievous little dolls that were designed and created by Kasing Lung have become an iconic accessory. Every new drop brings in a whole new wave of excitement. Collectors and resellers run and spend hours and so much money trying to get their hands on one of these boxes. The hype around these has caused prices to rise, resale values to skyrocket, and made these rare collectibles the new symbol of taste. It’s not that different from the real estate market if you zoom out a bit and compare the two: limited listings, demand growing, and the search for the best deals before they're snatched by someone else.

Pair all that with a glamorous Petit Meal from the Beau Restaurant in Jumeirah - adorable, high-end “Happy Meals” that offer a gourmet style smash burger, crispy golden fries, your drink, and let's not forget your toy, that's what makes a happy meal right? There's an exclusive Labubu doll tucked in the box as well. These aren't just meals, they are not just dolls and properties aren't just land and buildings, it's about the moments. They are made for those who value aesthetics in life and are looking for nostalgia; there's just something so satisfying about getting your hands on something exclusive.

When you go out and buy these limited edition meals, toys, or anything, it's not about buying the time itself; it's about the lifestyle you are buying. You are spending around AED 200 on this experience because of the personal connection you've built with the idea, and let's not forget how fun it is. So why not get the same feeling in other areas of your life and go for something that will help you secure a deal that will only grow in value?

Just take a moment to imagine you're already in a place in your life where you don't mind putting in the cash to get something rare, you also acquired the skill to move fast, especially when you know that what you want might disappear at any moment. These are the same type of skills you need to spot underpriced apartments, buy into a new launch, or get your hands on a property in the community you know is going to be the next hype.

If you just look at the math, let's think about it, you go out to buy a few Petit Meals in a month, maybe you also grab Labubu’s, it's a rare find. There are a few designer drops, who can resist? You are easily spending several thousand dirhams a month, and it's amazing, you should be proud, you're living well. But this means you have the money and the financial means, and you have exquisite taste. You should collect, indulge in the little things, and enjoy life, but amongst all that, why not sign off on a studio unit in a location that's rising in value at speed? Or consider starting a payment plan on a property that's guaranteed to double in value.
