What is a good salary to have in UAE?
Hi, So I'm considering moving to UAE and currently looking for jobs.
I was wondering what a good salary would be for a couple with two very small kids to have a comfortable life there.
By comfortable I mean, live in a middle class family friendly area in a 3 - 4 bedroom apartment, be able to comfortably afford groceries and using the AC and heating without worrying about bills too much, afford to eat out once a week, do some activities on the weekend for kids, send my kids to a decent British school and still have savings at the end of the month.
This is the lifestyle I currently have so I would like to maintain it.
Thanks for your help.
Edit: adding extra info as some people are asking for it. I live in London UK, and my currenty salary is £125k with a 18% employer pension contribution. I also salary sacrifice £25k of my salary into my pension to avoid the tax leaving my take home pay (after other deductions) at about £6k a month. Ideally after bills I'd like to have savings of £1.5k monthly which rarely happens in UK. Usually I only have a couple of hundred left.
The UK has also become a very uncomfortable place to live, with punitive taxes, insane cost of living, failing public services and unsafe streets.
Financially I'm better off then most but I worry about my kids growing up here. My wife, whose Canadian, also HATES it here now. So for the sake of family and marriage Im looking to move.
