Dubai. You don’t have to pay tax. So even if you spend 1L per month, you can save close to 3L.

like

1 l per month is 4800 AED only.. if you take a decent 1 Bhk ( with all bills) this us the amount you will have to pay. In the OPs situation, from my experience you will have to spend atleast 10K AED per month ; range being 7K AED ( for chindi lifestyle) to 15K AED ( decent lifestyle, 2 BHk,car and some outings)

Dubai… Been in both the countries and hands down Dubai with your situation.

Short term - Dubai. Get tax free money, but poor education system and super expensive to live, esp with a kid in the long term

I make 32K AED in Dubai, live in a 1BHK and housing bills amount to roughly 7K fixed expenses (5K rent, 600 Electricity + 700 cook + maid+ 400 internet)

But I still manage to save >60% of my salary so that’s fine

HI Fishes,
So I have just joined an MNC as a .Net+ AngularJS developer with 6YOE few weeks back and it seems they are putting me in a support role and the stack is based on VB whereas I come from C# background and also the frontend too is probably just old .net web forms.

It seems like I have been manipulated which isn't really unexpected but I am specifically worried about my future and growth prospects and how it will affect my profile due to the VB thing.
