Hi folks,

I got job offer from Dublin. They offer me 50.000 euros gross salary. I calculated after tax and result 3000 euros in net I will earn monthly. I'm married. We are 2 people. Do you think this salary is enough for 2 people?

I'm searching from different websites like www.numbeo.com but I need live experiences and recommendations.

Generally, are bills (heating, electricity, water) included in the rent?

Are there any municipality taxes we need to pay?
