Is 21000 AED sufficient in Dubai

Post new topic

Hi,
I have recently got an offer in Dubai.They are going to pay me 21000 AED/month .They are not paying me for the housing or any other allowance over and above this amount. I will be staying there with my wife only and most probably I have to take a rent(1BHK only) in the Bur Dubai area.Please suggest whether it will be a good option for me to shift with this salary given the probable expenses I have to incur.Also please share some light on the rent expense in Bur Dubai. The office location will be in Dubai Internet City.

Probably ok??? Hey..21000 is not ok..It's pretty nice. Some locals here don't get paid that much!

it depends on your expenses .. however, 21k is quite reasonable for a decent life!

You are right but I live in Al Ain and I am living The Life man and my salary is a little under 21000 and we all know Al Ain and Abu Dhabi area is more expensive than Dubai so I would say it's nice.
