You could try this website for cost of living.   www.numbeo.com 
From this you should be able to work out how much you will need for food and accommodation etc

I would post your questions in the UAE section.

Apart from your questions, there is 2 things you need to know about UAE and working there.

1. It is illegal for the company you work for to hold on to your passport untill you are due for holiday. But many companies do it. Look for a serious employeer, they will not "steal" your passport.
2. Dubai and UAE has still not fully come out of the work depression from 2008. Finding jobs is at times difficult.

Good Luck
