Thank you all for your feedback.

I had few more questions:

What is the appoximate cost of water & electricity for a 2 bedroom apartment?

What is the approximate cost of petrol for a 4 cylinder and 6 cylinder car?

What is the approximate cost for grocery shopping for 2 adults ? (regular daily needs)

Currently where I live I am saving around 10,000 QR after paying all expenses. will I be able to save more than that with 30,000 QR in Qatar?

We should probably have a cost base and then people will be able to see what is the real remainder,the 30000 will be given left and right and the remainder in cash may probably not worth moving to a very hot & expensive country

If we add up the cost components,I mean ALL,you end up with close to nothing for savings? right?

Quite confused actually, I got a comparable question with warnings that 25000 is just enough to make it, so 30000 wouldn't make any visible savings,

or is it because my question was for a family with 2 kids?

Well i think its a good offer. I know many poeple working for 25000-28000QR and taking care of 3 children. Health insurance is not so very important but It totally depend on ur lifestyle too.

yeah its perfect.

apartment costs b/w QR5000-QR9000 for a medium range. Could go upto QR15,000 depending on what you want.

no insurance dosen't really matter as there is the govt. provided healthcard ...
