can I live like a rock star on AED 90,000p/m?

battrap

Mulling over an offer for AED 90k per month flat. I need to pay for housing and car. The company does pay  health insurance tho. There will be a performance bonus on top that will probably be between 30-80% of my base but I want to save that rather than depend on it.

How good a lifestyle can I have with that salary? It's just me and my wife. No children yet.

I would like a nice car and a big apartment/house with outdoor space to grow plants. We eat out 3 or 4 times a week and drink maybe 3 times a week with one of those nights being a big clubbing night.
