I've been offered a job with a package of 50.000 AED / month.
I'll have to pay for my housing+transportation
Everything (schools for the 3 kids+medical insurance+yearly tickets once a year for the family+life ins).
Is it enought to live in good conditions for an expat life in Dubai?

school will be 3000 a month each so three kids 9000. Since medical is on your head consider a family of five as a risk coverage of 1000 AED and yearly transport is on you too so yearly for five will be 3000×5= 15000 so monthly is 1250 and now houseing  for five will be minimum 10000 aed a month. so 50000-9000-1000-1250-10000= 27500 . Now does it appear attractive... bargain for medical and yearly passage money my friend...
