Moving in together is a big step, and it pays to have the important conversations before doing so. One of them is how you’ll split expenses as a couple. A woman has told how her boyfriend is insisting that they split everything 50/50 when she moves into the home he owns. She feels this isn’t fair as it means she’ll be paying off his mortgage and interest while he reaps the benefits.
The woman is considering staying with roommates instead but her boyfriend says she’s unreasonable and has insinuated that she’s leeching off him. Bored Panda reached out to Chip Lupo for his take on the matter. He’s a financial writer and analyst for WalletHub.
