Just to give you a brief idea about living costs in Qatar, take a good look at these facts:

1- Rent of a 1 bedroom apartment in a mid-class area is from 3,500 up to 4,500 QAR per month. Sharing an apartment with someone else may save you around 1,000-1,500 QAR per month.

2- Renting a small car (1500 cc) is around 1,500-1,700 QAR per month.

3- Food costs for a single per month are around 800-1,500 QAR depending on what you eat and drink. The previous number increments if you drink alcohol.

4- Going out on weekends costs around 200-300 QAR depending on what you do (that's about 800-900 QAR per month).

5- Water and electricity bills are around 300 QAR per month. Any extra services like mobile and internet are at about 250 QAR each (that's another 500 QAR per month).

Need I continue...?! I don't think so.
