DAILY DILEMMA: Man Earns 200K & His Lady Earns 40K. He wants to know how to split their $3K rent!

About this episode

The episode discusses how a couple should fairly split their rent given their significant income differences.

He makes $200K, she makes $40K, and their rent is $3,000 a month. So, how much should she pay? In this edition of The Daily Dilemma, The Madd Hatta breaks down a viral internet debate that has the culture completely divided. A high-earning boyfriend went to social media to ask what a "fair" rent split looks like when living with his girlfriend. If they split it 50/50, her $1,500 share eats up nearly half her monthly income, while his share is just pocket change. But if he pays the lion's share, is he being taken advantage of, or is he just protecting his partner? We’re putting the relationship math to the test. Hit play to hear the debate on income gaps, love, and living together. Catch the Daily Dilemma every weekday at 2:20 pm on Majic 102.1 or the Majic 102.1 app.
