Hi, I got a JOB in Doha for 14000 QAR + Medical rest all other i need to bear on my own.

Can I get a fully furnished single bedroom flat including electricity, water, within 3500QAR in city out-skirts?

I have done a calculation as below please correct me if put any wrong values.  

Fully Furnished 1BHKRent+electricity+water: 4000QAR  

Car EMI +petrol: 1500 QAR ( for 3 years example Toyota camry)  

Monthly grocery: 2500 QAR  

Telephone+internet: 500 QAR  

Entertainment: 1000 QAR 

Your replies will help me to estimate my savings.

Decent 1 bed room FF accommodation may cost you about 4500-5000 in Doha. However you may look for a flat in Ezdan Village which is fully furnished but cost you only about QR.3500. However this comes with a pain of longer time required to commute to Doha.

Your calculation for monthly grocery is on the high side. You may be getting to spend just a 1000 QR at the most on your grocery. Also, if you are not a club-goer or a drinker, you may save much on your entertainment expenses as well.
