High Cost of living and increasing traffic with sky high rentals is well known. However can some one help me know how good is the salary of 18000/- Dhs in Dubai? Need to rent 2BR apprtment. Husband/wife+1 kid.? How far is Al Nahda area from Dubai City Bank building in Oud Mehta? How much I shoul dbe able to save if we live reasonably? Should I move from Kuwait to Dubai? I have a salary of around 12000/- Dhs in Kuwait and I am able to save 4000/- Dhs PM easily? Please share your experience and advise?
Thanks

It is really a good offer. I would suggest you to move Dubai. You can enjoy your life in all aspects. You can have a better life in Dubai.
The distance between Al-Nahda to Oud Mehta is hardly 15 minutes driving.
Welcome to Dubai.

The rent will cut (+-) 4000 Dhs monthly , if you live reasonably you can enjoy Dubai and save about 4000 Dhs a month , Al Nahda area about 7 km from Dubai but some time the traffic will be a problem, yes you will enjoy living in Dubai Much Much more than Kuwait. Good Luck

I think Dubai is a bit more expensive, you will not be able to save more than what you did in Kuwait, even with a better salary, houses are soooo expensive and they raise the prices 15% almost every year and nothing can be done about it.
Dubai is also full of temptations, you spend a lot.
So, I think money wise it will be the same, it depends on is it a better offer for your future? and if you are happy in Kuwait or not.
Good luck.

its actually not easy with 2500 until and unless u r provided with a company's accommodation. if u r not then its going to be lil tuff. and if u r earning for urself the also its kinda fine and if u have to send some amount to home then definitely its going to b pretty tuff. and if u r renting the home on sharing basis (with 2-3 boys and location) max 1000 dhms u need to have. then ur food, conveyance (bus service sucks out here especially for males) taxis are expensive. traffic is the biggest issue u need to start up quiet early from home it depends where is ur residence and where is ur employer. (150 dhms for conveyance) ur food if u r going to eat out so minimum one meal will cost you 10-12 dhms n maximum dont ask. so take it atleast 400 dhms per month ur food will cost if u r having outside, grocery items are also not much expensive but still its DUBAI. then u have to send some amount at home then save for urself not for GFs but yes Driving License (if ur company is providing u with a car) cos if u have ur own conveyance u r very much at ease and mobile but that ways also Salik's will kill ur pocket. and DL is not that easy to get its the hardest nut to break being in Dubai so u better b prepared for hard days. and incase still u try to give it a shot give it but ask ur company to give an accomodation. but this is actually DUBAI is all about. u wont find much difference then India. and do come with lots of sunscreen lotion and a good shade also an umbrella the summer is like......... no words to describe. But theses are the days u can cherish. I am also struggling I have been in Dubai from past 4 months so the things are pretty tough especially for boys but still manageable. ANd if its 3,500 its going to be fine. and this is what the experience is. I have to walk for half an hour to get the bus through sand and evrythng then in the evening get off by 7 then walk for 15 minutes to bus station. then where the bus drops me then again 15-20 minutes and m enjoyng it. anywys what is the post they are taking u for? and how much is ur experience? Last but not the least. U CANT TRUST ANYONE HERE. ppl are here for money and they will betray u at any moment. but still they are practical in their approach so u dont get hurt.

The salary/remuneration for a particular job is the market value for a particular profession and designation at the city/town where the office is located. Job postings at websites like Monster, Yahoo HotJobs and Careerbuilder carry information about salaries. The Govt Dept of Labor, (www.bls.gov) Bureau of statistics has information about median salaries for different professions and details of additional compensation offered. Other online resources are salary.com and payscale. Your salary will also depend on your educational qualification and how you handle your career.
