What is a decent salary in Bali to live comfortably?
Hi all,
I have an interview for a teaching job coming up in Bali. They are offering US$30,000. I have a lot of experience so I could possibly get quite a few thousand dollars more in other places like the Middle East but I like the idea of moving to Bali.
Is this a decent salary in Bali ? will I be able to live well and save some money with this salary ?
Many thanks,
Jack
Can you "live well" and save money on those wages? No one can really tell you. It depends on your lifestyle. If you are out in the night clubs 2-3 times a week - probably not. It depends a bit too on if your accommodation is provided for you. Is it? Overall, it is quite a good wage on the local economy, but it depends on how much you hook up with the local expatriate community which can vary from multi-multi-millionaires to surfers drifting through. You best bet would be to ask your potential employer to connect you with someone on the scene in a similar job in Bali with a similar wage.
