Hi, the salary offered to me is 15000 SAR per month. this includes housing allowance and family allowance and transport allowance...the company is not providing housing facility nor is it giving child education. would a family of 3 (myself, wife and a daughter) be able to survive + save in this salary?? plz note medical expenses would be covered by company. plz suggest, as i have to answer them for accepting the offer. they are not ready to revise the offer. I am from india and post would be of an engineer.

Minimum cost of living for you would be 5,000:7000 including rent and transportation and live in good shape. Education fees for ur kid is the thing that will cost a lot (30 or something if good acceptable schoo)

The best advise is if you wish to save. Travel alone. Its the biggest sacrifice but if saving is the motive then its the best course especially at your offered salary.
