i am a fresher Mechannical engineer from india. i got a offer from a singapore company with $1800 per month with accomodation. can i survive with this pay and can i save?

I don't think you could live off that monthly. You most certainly will not be able to save much. I depends on how you actually like to live. Do you have a family? I wouldn't be at all surprised to find out that singapore is a very expensive place to live in so you might find it's not enough. But hey what do I know? I just think that if I was earning that amount of money I would want to live the expensive way and it probably wouldn't be possible.

    Average expenses per month per person-

    3 meals daily: $180 ~ $270
    Transport: $200 ~ $300
    *Accommodation (one room rental): $300 ~ $400
    Entertainment: $50 ~ $200
    Misc: $100 ~ $200
    Total: $830 ~ $1370
    Total w/o Accommodation: $530 ~ $970

    This all depends on ur lifestyle. We have foreign workers earning about $600 who can save, send money home and survive. So, should not be a prob for a single person here. $1800 is average income here for a diploma holder in Singapore.

    Hope this helps!

    S$1800 shouldn't be a problem if you are living alone. But it's definitely not enough for a family.
