Abu Dhabi - wages
Hi all looking for some advice please.
Been offered a job, which I'm very sceptical about.
They are offering me 12500 Aed a month which includes and accommodation allowance, and to pay for visas.
I don't have kids, it would just be me until I am able to get my partner out.
Question is, would this be good enough to live off?
I live a somewhat moderate lifestyle- gym membership weekends at a med- high price restaurants and a couple of drinks ect
Thanks

A decent one bed flat will get you back 8k a month. A pint of beer is 45dh (yes, 10 pounds on today's exchange rate).
You could share (a flat, not the beer that is), but until you hit the magical 20k / month (for the pair of you) times will be tough.
