The rule of thumb for expat salaries is your salary in the US/UK plus 25% plus housing, transportation, medical, air tickets, etc. Please realize there isn't public transportation per se in Qatar. The Qatar government won't even let anyone bring a spouse unless their base salary is over 10,000. I'd say that's the line for "middle-class." But again, why would you even be tempted? They are offering you peanuts and that's a real sign of how they will treat you later.
