Never heard of that tradition myself.to the traditional1/3 of take home pay.
My mother was a believer in that! Save a third, spend a third, hand up a third.Never heard of that tradition myself.
1/3 would only make sense , IMHO, if the household had financial pressures and the money was needed . I certainly wouldnt ask for 1/3 or anytijng close to it.My mother was a believer in that! Save a third, spend a third, hand up a third.
In the past I've looked at the additional financial cost of the adult kids, it was zero for most bills but just came down to electricity and food.
Electricity I thought was too small to bother with and with food I just asked them to cover any items that were specially for them(eg bottles of wine).
I'm happier to help them in saving for a home and the money makes more of a difference to them than it does to us.
It was/is a basic way of helping those that start earning how to budget.Never heard of that.
My view is that working adults should contribute. In my day it was a third. In my house working adults contribute 25% capped at €80/week.
He’s screwed.
