Bahrain - What is a reasonable Monthly or Yearly Salary BHD$ in Manama, Bahrain for a Sales Director?

Question

We have been offered a position with my husband’s current employer in Manama, Bahrain. Our family of five has never lived outside of the US though his current work requires extensive travel. We are a one income family, base salary of $100,000 yr USD +/- living in NC. The EXPAT package provides housing, auto, utilities, club membership in addition to the base salary (paid in BHD$), but we have no frame of reference for comparison. What do these things cost per month? We want to live in a compound in a villa 4 or 5 bedrooms in good condition. In the US we own two cars on paid for one financed both reasonable cars. What is a reasonable monthly or yearly salary for a Commercial Director of Sales in logistics? I have been unable to locate a salary/cost of living comparison tool that will allow a North Carolina US to Manama BH. Understanding that the conversion rate is $1BHD to $2.65 USD does very little good for making such a life affecting decision. Any advice, suggestions? Thank you!!!!!!

Answer 1

I think this is an exact question of the previous one.

As I mentioned in your scond question, please e-mail me with more details (for example, monthly salary in BD and the company's name) and I will be able to help you more. Oh, and the rate you got is correct, because the rate (other way around) is 0.378. This rate never changes because the BD is pegged to the $. So, $1 = 1 x 0.378 = BD 0.378

The rest of your questions are answered in your other question.
