There are many advantages which everybody will accept like, good pay, tax free, safe place and small are etc.

But there are three major DISADVANTAGES:

1. There is hardly any times pass for batchelors.

2.Unlike Dubai, there is no way of finding a company to make love for those who are single. (Only, you have to do it yourself)

3. In case of any emergency, you cannot elave the country unless you are lucky enough tog et the exit permit.

You get to feel like a modern day slave. Working and not being allowed to leave untill your master relises you

Top of the list...

1. TAX FREE :)

2. Safe Place (Not if u end up pickign fights everyone u c)

3. All road leads to Doha (U wud neva get lost in Qatar... Since its a small country, the road network is pretty neat, thou... u gotta watch-out for all the road constructions going around)

4. If u have a decent salary, savings is a big boom.

5. U get ALMOST everything out here (I.e. Food, electronic goods, etc.)

Now... aint tht Kewl enough 2 live here in Qatar?

I think this is a rather open question!

This all depends from where you have came, why you have come here and what you want to get out of it. As far as I am concerned, its advantages are, weather, safety, better way of life, good paid job, best job for a long time, great people, great food and lots of new things to do.

As I said, thats my reasons and what I see as advantages
