With great difficulty

a few pointers

1. cook at home, will help ya and utilising the money in a better way.
2. Dont party at the drop of a hat, if u wanna survive in that budget u might end up partying a lot less than u imagine.
3. use public transport and walk whereever possible to save money rather than taking a cab( if u dont have a company car).
4. do ur own laundry.
5. Can give u a lot more pointers but then u would be confined to ur home, but if u follow it u might still end up saving 700-800 dh out of it.

cheers,

you can even afford to eat out regular on that money if you eat in some of the small indian/pakistani restaurants. a good meal will cost you less than AED 20 there.

I guess the question is what expenses are already covered... i.e. is rent, transportation and DEWA already covered, or is it going to come out of this.
