7K SR for a single guy in Riyadh is not bad although you may, possibly, end up saving around SR 2K per month is you choose to live frugally, based on the fact that you have to pay for your housing, transportation, from the 7K

If Housing and Transportation is provided then you could easily save another SR 2.5K per month for sure.

7k To start is good.

living here is not expensive if you dont want it to be expensive

if You plan to save you can save 2-3 easily

all depends on your hand..........

You will probably find that sharing a flat or house is more economical.

Try some of the Pakistani expat resources to find them. (I'm assuming there are some).

I noticed lots of "flats" and "houses" to share that were posted near supermarkets when I lived in Riyadh.
