3600 dhs for wife and kids ???? Let me know where yoü shop....I spend almost three times that...
We tried a weekly budget of 1000 for food etc, we are now up to 1500 a week and that just covers it...also cost for maid, wifes shopping and school fees take that up to ........ 9000 and then you have provident fund,car loan, credit card billls, bills from back home, and all the other stuff 1052 mentioned.
You may think you spend 3600 pm, but try adding it up honestly at the end of the month, prepare for a shock...
