Hi All

I have an offer from a real estate firm in dubai

I have been offered the designation of a HR Manager.

Salary 16k per month and 2k bonus per month, which is payable as a lumpsum every 6 months.

No other benefits.

I will be relocating with my wife and child(2.5 yrs)

Will 16k be enough to sustain and save?

Regards
Ash

16K should be okay to live here with family, unless you spend too much on socialising.
