i have got job on five years contract and moving with my family.....wife and two kids (7 yrs and 3 months)....on a net take home salary of R 32,000.....is it enough for a good living.......and what about safety and education system in cape town.
In answer to your question, the salary seems decent enough, but what about the benefits: wil the company pay medical aid, provide a housing allowance, security, etc? These are your biggest expenses in South Africa. Schools can be excellent, but they are expensive. Read the guide above and good luck to you.
