I am considering a job offer from a Sri Lankan company.
I have no kids, just me and my wife.

1.Is LKR 75,000  good enough to get a descent 2 bedroom apartment in Colombo city?
2.How far will it be from World Trade Centre? How much will the monthly expense be on travel from home to office?
3.How much will I be able to save if I am offered LKR 3,25,000 net per month after taxes? ( LKR 75,000 for the apartment rent will be paid separately)

Regards,
IndigoSL

I think thats a gud deal.Normally if you spend for essential stuff & do little bit of partying you can survive the month with 100,000 LKR. Thats around 250K Saving
