well,,how old are you , and what is your qualifications to think with you, if there is a job for you or not?? the unemployment rate stands at 12% (the recorded one)... it is more of course... Plus,, you have to have a unique experience (and someone to help you if you want to work officially) Any way 5k -1k will be 4k which is almost LE22k i think that is enough to live like 4 months,, but not like a tourist (enjoyable life) but normal life...

It is very possible to live in Egypt. It is true that you will spend the biggest portion of your savings on the plane ticket, but since you said you have $5,000 saved you could easily live for 2 - 3 months on this in Cairo. To rent an apartment you can expect to pay 2,000 to 3,000 LE (about $360 to $550) per month. If you don't eat out every day and you know how to cook, you can get by with about 300 LE per week for groceries (about $55). If you ride the metro instead of taking taxis everywhere, you can get around pretty cheap and still be able to go out and enjoy doing things. As far as the job is concerned, if you are not planning on staying long term in Egypt, it may be difficult to find a job for that short period of time.

Why would you want to live in Egypt? Its full of poverty and extremely hot and polluted
6 :
as a foreigner, and you don't have a work contract with an any egyptian associations, you will be treated as a tourist so you will pay a lot for living in egypt and you will not find job easily if your male. but if you are a female and have no manner, you may give some sex service to earn money
