how much could I save

canadiangal's picture

How much do you estimate I might save on a salary of 25000 QR, accomodation covered? I tend not to be a big spender, though I'm not big on cooking.

Thanks in advance for your responses.

25000 - 3500 (room rent)
21500 - 1500 (food)
20000 - 1600 (car rent)
18400 - you might save this amount

I know the ways of women; they won't come when thou wilt, and when thou won't they are passionately fond.

Housing is your vaugest option as there are so many options.
You could find a reasonable apartment in a reasonable area for 8/9000 ish or a nice villa in a nice area for 25000. Just depends what you want or need.

Pieman, that may be so...but the standard here is crap....i want to have it better than that. Plus, we would have an in built community, which would make things so much better for newbies and would be nice for old timers.

A sense of humour is just common sense dancing, sadly, common sense has left the building and is dancing somewhere else.
