Hi every one...!!

I know this quest must have been raised a lot many times in lot many forums an topics..but still being so much concerned about my decision, i look for some support specific to my case.

I am a married from Pakistan having 3 children elder girl 5 year old and I have got a job offer at Rs 16200 QR per month (Basic + HRA), 3 children education upto 50% cost pay by company + once in 12 months tickets to home country and return for my self with spouse and 3 children + medical insurance + 31 days paid extra for every year. The company deals power generation and desalination and its QEWC(Qatar electricity and water company).

A few facts about me :
1.) I dont drink and smoke.
2.) A vegetarian/white meat only (chicken)
3.) Not a Party animal, but one a month would be needed.
4.) Ready to live in a flat/ apartment for family
5.) In pakistan getting around 90,000 per month + fuel for car + phone.

So based on the fact above my ques are :
1.) How much can i save after spending on Food, misc ,house rent ??
2.) Would it be a nice move to take this offer?
3.) Can anybody comment on the company background?
4.) How is Doha as a place to live an work?
5.) About further oppurtunities?

I hope i hv made my case quite specific. Would love to see some real time experiences and comments on the above to help me take a decision.

Looking forward for the support...

thnks
Faisal

rent= minimum 6500?? my 3 bedroom apartement is for 5500 in madinat khalifa. power generation and desalinisation is between doha and wakra so he can just live in wakra for much less than 5.500.

You are getting aound QR4000 back home and you will get 4 times here. I suppose you could save up to 5000 to 6000 after all your expenses, just going from by what you have written above!
