Minimum wage person who started recently to live with his father wants to pay a percentage of their salary in gratitude; knowing I use 50% for needs such as rent, food and transport, what percentage of that fifty should I use?Have a happy new year /adv/!
>>34090020You can afford 0%.
>>34090020Just buy more food, maybe buy some beers or vodkas for your dad of he's into that.
just offer to buy groceries, pay electric etc. Just handing money is weird
>>34090020Offer like 10% of what you make or an expense like all the power bill, all the water bill, etc. But offer first, it might be he doesn't want you to
>>34090020>wants to pay a percentage of their salary in gratitudetalk to him and ask him man to man? He probably would just want you to do the chores he's too tired/busy to do around the home or do daily errands instead. You don't have the finances to make a dent like >>34090037 said lets be real.>started recently to live with his fatheryour goal from now on should be to be financially literate and responsible- you should be doing everything in your strength to stand on your own so you can get out from under your father. The only thing you can be to not be a drag, is to live on your own. This is the truth. Until then, make his life less of a pain and do what you can to help with his financial and life goals. In short, don't give him grief by staying there- do everything to move out asap. You are old enough.
>>34090020The question guys, he's asking for a percentage specifically. I would said a 25% of your half income is not bad to be used in needs of the house.
>>34090020Think the average acceptable is to spend twenty percent for rent so ten would probably be a deal for each of you. You could do something better than fork it. Like talk him into doing a retirement plan so you can cash in later.
>>34093936Good answer here; you can choose from 10% to 20%, less than that would be meager and more than that, not a good idea.
