Most people cannot EVEN THINK of another avenue to earn money other than their job... (although it is illegal in Qatar) there are many who do...

some work part time... some provide services... some start small part time business, some pool money to start a shop, some pool money to start a restaurant etc...

It is very difficult for one to jump from working class rank to a business class rank... the Business class will not allow anybody to enter their arena so easily... for them you are a rival , they will only be glad to see one exit...
