How do you figure out what is a fair amount to pay your mom in rent?
This episode's question comes from a listener who moved in with their aging mother after struggling to find a job after graduating college. They've been paying $700 in rent ever since and helping out with transportation, taxes, household expenses and more. But now with a successful career and higher salary, they're questioning if it's time to pay more rent even though they are helping care for their mom. Join us as we delve into the ups and downs of balancing family responsibility, personal goals, and housing costs in the Bay Area.
