I should probably have been more specific in explaining my background.

Yes, I am currently employed as an EFL instructor in Qatar, but I have dealt with a high-end international real estate development company as an investor for several years, and have recently made an agreement with them to help them raise investment funds in Qatar (where they do not currently have full-time representation).

I am by no means a con-man, nor am I seeking to rip anyone off (least of all major government organizations in the country where I am happily employed). I am simply trying to develop some useful contacts from the ground up. Any helpful suggestions would be wonderful; accusations are certainly less helpful.
