It does sound as an attractive deal, financially, but DO take into account the cost of living versus what it would cost at home.
Then think of payments at home (in euros, pounds etc.) I for one had the experience to live in BAH when the housing was much lower. When we were forced to move to AUH for GF traveller, financially ends didn't meet and GF would not pay the bill.
I decided to go home and found out that even by paying tax and after cost of living, I ended up with the same amount in the bank.
The currency gap made the difference even greater. Think before you decide, unless you have no option.
