Default Another "Am I Earning Enough?" Thread!
Hi,

I've just accepted a position in Abu Dhabi which is providing me with the following:

26,000AED per month
1 bed apartment plus 15,000AED furnishings allowance
Audi A4 or Honda CRV company car plus 1,000AED monthly fuel allowance
1 return flight home
Private medical insurance
25 (working days) holiday
Plus the opportunity to gain my professional qualifications and maybe an MBA

Based on a 5 day week.

Is this quite a reasonable lifestyle for a single bloke?
