We see a bad trend going. Almost all of us have been in/had friends in a similar situation, and almost all of us have seen it fail. Badly. You're just too immature and don't have enough life experience to know what we do.I didn't ask for advice on the rent I asked for idea's about a second job. Good job reading what you wanted and answering a question that wasn't asked.
So you say you respect our intelligence and wisdom, but then you don't want our advice?It's not like I don't take into consideration what is posted on here, I know some people on here DO know what they're talking about which is why I posted this here.
Who said shitty jobs? I'm bringing home $35k a year part time right now at 22yrs old which I think is pretty solid while still going to school. I still haven't voided out the idea of having her pay money for rent after reading people's concerns on here.
No you told us your plan and started ignoring our advice.I just told you guys my plan and then took advice.
Why's she need a new car? College students, especially ones paying their own rent, are SUPPOSED to drive crummy used cars. You can easily find a 10-year old japanese car that still runs really well for dirt cheap.You just began bashing from the begining and just thought I wouldn't listen. Yes it does sound silly to me sometimes even when I talk about paying all the rent however she is paying for her new car and she paid off mine as well.
Then why are you fighting it so hard? Because you haven't spoken to her about splitting the bills, and you're actually very unsure about the whole situation.I am reading what you're writing and it's not like I don't take into consideration anything that is said. It's just we do take care of each other financially. Even though I wasn't really asking for comments and concerns on how to split the bills (cause if its needed to be split more it will be) I appreciate it and expected it from TW.
However I was also wanting any opinions on another part-time jobs that anyone might have had in the past or currently that is makes good pocket cash every night they work. If you have any ideas on that as well Pagy I wouldn't mind hearing it because that was the point of this thread originally.
I'm taking the last 6 credit hours for my degree this next semester and I probably should of clarified new car as in new to us.

this is unbelievably stupid
like i've said before, not splitting all the bills in half is retarded

if she has all that debt, then she should be living at home, not for free off you.

You've got AT LEAST 3 more years where you should be out having fun, having sex with different girls, partying, and enjoying yourself. I know you have all these idealistic visions of your apartment, but all I can see is a train wreck waiting to happen. It's too much money, too big, for someone you're too young to be settling down with, and in a setting (college) where you're supposed to be working too hard on SCHOOL work, not on rent.

Having sex with different girls = increase chance of getting a girl pregnant.
Partying = waste of money and waste of life.
Some people find enjoyment of out making a life.
