You could make that much, without a car, but youll be living in a company labor camp which is a room in a shared temporary houseing cabin (like a school portable).

The people who hire here are not the locals, they arent ignorant and made of money and they are up on current events. If all the countries had really strong economies then you might be ok, but your trying to get on board way to late in the game to take advantage of the middle east being a lame place to live. There are plenty of people like you (me) who had a very different idea of what the job market would be like when you entered school versus when you got out. The whole world is on the ropes except this place because they were really lucky to inherit a massive natural gas supply. Many people are trying to take advantage of this country and it has made it a buyers market for the employers.

Oh, and this country loves to take advantage of the other asian cultures, specifically indians and filipinos who they can pay considerably less.

Good luck, but dont get your hopes up.
