Hello,

I got an offer of AED 11000 + medical insurance.
I will be working at Airport free zone.

Is this a good salary ?

I will need to rent a flat but at the beginning I think I will be looking for sharing.

I would like to know monthly price for the following:

Flat ( Studio flat or sharing )near Al Qusais
Food (cooking myself)
Dawe
Transportation
Mobile with Internet h24
Bank Account

Also are standard medicne expensive ? Painkiller , Headache  , Asthma Inhaler  for example ?

About social life  , How much is to go clubbing or dinner out?

Thanks to answer at all my question.

Regards
Alessio

For single person this salary is ok; for two this will be a bit tight.
Studio AED 35K+ per year
Food AED 500 pm - simple meals and not fancy stuff
DEWA - AED 300 pm + House Tax 5% on rent
Transportation - AED 250 pm (combo of bus most days + taxi on some days)
Mobile, Internet, TV - AED 500 pm
Bank Account -? What is the query?  No fee for this

Medicines are expensive, so get it covered under insurance.

Clubbing - Depends on your style.  Suggest lie low till you get settled down.  Avoid trouble.
Dinner out - AED 100 to AED 5,000.  Your choice!
