Default Work in Saudi Arabia for $20K/month tax free - what would you do?

Someone at my former employer called me about an opportunity to work in the Saudi oil fields as a project manager. Tax free $20K/month for a 6 month tour with optional extra time. Given the stock market and inflation, my retirement budget appears "adequate" but not lavish. $120K boost would sure help.. but.... . the middle east????
I'm assured it's very safe LOLOLOL...

I doubt I'll do it, but.. .I've thought about it, seems interesting and well paid.

What would you do?
