Is 30000 Sterling Pounds a good salary in Baku?
I will be moving to Baku to work, and my salary is 30000 Pounds. My housing and transportation, and one meal a day is covered. My question is, if I don´t go out too much, and don´t buy too many imported products, is that considered a good salary? I am hoping to save around 1800 pounds a month or more. Is this possible.
Thanks

It seems okay but is your employer covering medical insurance and flights in and out ?
Yes they are covering all my flights, insurance, and housing. Do you think saving 1800 pounds a month is a reasonable goal?

dude 30.000 sterlig pounds is around 50.000 USD. are you crazy?
Sorry my bad. I thought 30k as monthly 
Anyway if your aim is to save 1800 out of 2500, it will not be hard. 700 sterling is about 925 AZN.
I mostly cook at home, go out once or twice a week. I spend 400-500 AZN a month. But, I do not drink alcohol.
Bring as many clothes as you can. Clothing is so expensive in here.
I couldnt know it is monthly or annual but in both cases it is good salary for Baku. If your housing is covered u can save even more. Its not expensive eat and transportation in Baku. Mostly clothes are imported but they are not so expensive compared with European zone countries. it depends on from where u buy it. Of course in the centre it will be more expensive for same quality product than places little far away from centre of Baku.
Baku is not so expensive. Simple to compare, just multiply usual prices with 2 to get baku's price
