[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Money aside, do you like having him around? Is he helpful around the house? Is he nice? You said you were financially comfortable - why would you even accept rent from him? My understanding is that he pays his own way except rent. I am a foreigner so maybe I just don’t understand the American way of treating family like strangers even when they are nice people. I would understand you not wanting to have him there if the house was too small or if he was unpleasant but it doesn’t seem to be the case?[/quote] Your concept of supporting elderly family members financially isn’t really applicable in Western societies where people pay high taxes and SS contributions, save in 401Ks etc, in order to plan for expenses when they are older. Please stop the guilt tripping from your foreign perspective.[/quote]
