[quote=Anonymous]IMO, if a candidate insists on a gym membership, she's not a good candidate. I refuse to engage in the arms race. Our AP gets room and board, free use of our car, a reasonable workload with three school-aged kids, inclusion in family recreational activities to the extent she wants, plenty of flexibility to go out with friends whenever she wants. She can budget and save her $195/week stipend for travel or spend it on clothes and gym memberships, but she is a young adult and should not expect to get everything for free. If she is a princess she can go AP for someone else. We have had zero trouble finding great candidates who are perfectly willing to spend $10/month for Planet Fitness on their own dime if it's a priority for them.[/quote]
