REALISTIC COST OF LIVING IN DUBAI FOR A FAMILY OF 5 | one-time, annual and monthly expenses

Planning to move to Dubai soon? Already living here and just curious? Here is a realistic breakdown of my monthly (and annual) living expenses in Dubai. This video shows the real-life costs of an expat living in Dubai, which is more relatable and far from the glamorous lifestyle Dubai is always advertised to be. P.S.
