Mummys little soldier: /Kick him the fuck out.
That’s the thing he saving £200 p/m where the government put in the same for first time buyers and he’s as tight as they come before lockdown it was like going out with T Rex for a pintI used to pay 150 quid a month 15 years ago and I got paid fuck all at the time. There's a fine balance though between charging enough so that he's contributing, and not charging too much that he'll never save up enough to move out.
Get him to rewire the house. Hot tub, disco ball, the lot.Mummys little soldier: /
If I remember rightly my uni rent was between £85 - 105 per week depending on the year. Think I had to pay similar to your £200 figure for the short period I was back home post-graduation.
So how much should you and do you charge them for the privilege . Stepson is an apprentice electrician and since he started work me and Mrs Pabs have charged him £60 p/m after new year he got a substantial rise, with this in mind his rent has now gone upto £200 p/m . We told him the good news tonight and he’s took it like there’s been a death in the family. For this he gets a nice comfy bed , hot meal served nightly, washing and ironing , internet ( his bedroom looks like showcase cinema ) , packed lunches and numerous other sundries plus he does jack shit round the house, are we being unreasonable to what we charge him
You are absolutely in the right mate but how much is bringing home a month?So how much should you and do you charge them for the privilege .

I think that is the crux of the issue.So my Mum charged me a % of my take home from memory it was 35%... Odd figure but wjan as a first year apprentice on, £25 a week... Seemed a huge amount then.. But it did teach me some good budget skills.. I charged my step son 30%... He complained.. But I did his washing he did his ironing I made sure hot meals and lunches always ready.. When he moved out.. He was struck at prices of rent.. WiFi TV sky bills in general... Stopped complaining soon. And also got a bit of cash saved in a jar to start him off ( I called it his tax... Helped him out huge...
