Citation job in Riyadh - is it worth it?

I have been offered a position on a Citation 680 in Riyadh with the usual perks but what I consider to be a low salary and a two year contract. They will rate me and I will be working with some people I know. Trouble is that it will probably be single status due to NO schooling allowance and on that salary I could not afford to pay for two childrens schooling. I find it really hard to accept the position considering the price I would have to pay in relationship to family. Any suggestions other than what I think is obvious?

I have been there before, although 10 years ago, so its not new territory.

KSA, with which you are familiar, with the bucket of cash not severely outweighing the other bucket hanging off the other end of the pole across you back.

...and you need to ask?

10 years is a very long time for the ME and many things have changed.

Also 10 years is a long time for those rose coloured glasses to filter out a lot of the brown stuff that filled your bucket the first time.
