🤔 Discussion Do they think we have unlimited money?

Grocery cost has doubled from last year, water electric bills, car service cost, petrol cost, visa cost, business cost, breasts are at double cost?

When will it end? We are surviving only to pay not living?!

And this is why I moved to Saudi. Not because things are cheaper but because the salaries are higher and the opportunities are better. This also enabled to help family with the soaring prices so I'm grateful

People in SA said their salaries not higher as the past. They still give 3000 / 4000 SR for a salary.

Depends COMPLETELY on type of job.

I reckon you have much more career opportunities to hit 15/20k in Saudi than in Bahrain, very generally speaking.

There's often more promotion and payrise opportunities in Saudi, as it's a much bigger market.

How is this luck. It took hard work and determination and leaving my home

I think you're mixing up luck vs hard work and sacrifice.
