Can you save for a salary of 8000QR per month? Can anyone give me an idea with the cost of living breakdown?

Depends on how you live and how you spend, for a Bachelor it is more than enough, but salaries comparing according to the category of job. for a Engineer or doctor this is not a good salary.

You can save everything if you are very good economically and mathematically.

Guys. dont reply if you find questions silly,, but who decides that whether a question is silly or the readers intention is to make it silly..

I think the question posted is not silly at all.. it is a question that requires an answer,

Yes you can save with Qr 8000/-

Your Housing will take 50% of the salary

Balance 15 % for car / transport

Keep 15 % for groceries and other exps

you have 20 % savings on your salary. (My calculation)

Hope this clarifies

Always search on your own before you put a question.
