Hi All,

I have been offered a job with a basic salary of QR 5000-7000 pm and with an accommodation allowance of QR 2000 pm. Initially i am planning to take my wife after 3-4 months. Please let me know whether this salary will be enough to live a decent life and save some money?

I doubt,

Because a decent 2 bed room apartment will cost not less than 4000 QR ( bare minimum) + car loan + food expenditure, and u will find it tough, please search in the search bar by putting " cost of living" you will find plenty of topics that has been discussed, so u will come to know the real cost of living and other problems in doha.
