We will discuss any and everything from bad charities, terrible CEOs, and businesses that have a lot to hide. Dubai is known for its incredible feats of architecture. However, in the early 2000s, it was responsible for one of the largest architectural failures in terms of cost, environmental impact, and failure to come to fruition. The artificial islands were meant to awe and inspire visitors. Instead, they crumbled, changed the nature of currents, and to this day are nothing more than expensive sand dunes.
