Hi all,
I know there are a lot topics regarding cost of living at Dubai. I have the chance to get a Job which brings me around 8300 dhs and a housing allowance in the amount of 4200 dhs.
Is it possible to "live" with that amount of money in Dubai? By the word "live" I mean go out once in a while, probably get a JetSki someday but not staying at home and waiting for the next shift to beginn. Probably I will not save some money.
In my opinion there won´t be much left of my money. Since a year I have this thought in my mind to work in the sandpit. I also found alot in this message board about the good sides and predominantly about the shadow side of working in the middle east.
I am just looking for an answer on following question:
Can I live, not survive, in Dubai with the offered salary and the housing allowance?
Many thanks for your replys.
