hygenisists can make a comfortable living. Shawn you gotta realize this is a big change for her, life style changes dont happen over night.

also as a man you have to realize women talk to hear themselves talk, not for you to fix their problems. That sounds harsh but it's true, they just want to complain, they don't need you to try and fix it, just listen. and try to be as little impact on her life as you can. sorry your parents split, its a crappy place to be for you.

%15 of 100,000 is $15,000. My parents raised me on about that much a year and still fed themselves. granted NH is a hell more expensive place to live but my rents didnt have new cars or expensive vacations or eating out either.

so your mom makes between $40k - $60k a year and she will be getting 15% of what your dad makes (which is well over six figures but lets just say it's $100k) that means she will be getting $15k on top of what she makes...$55k - $75k a year is a good chunk of money...she should be fine, she'll just have to keep her spending habbits in check.

Wow.. I read that and looked to see who said it.. Once again, you suprise me Nightshade.



Good luck AF. Talk to your mom and say what you think she needs to do and what not. It can't hurt. If she gets mad at you, it can't be for very long.

Yeah makes sense. I just hope she adapts quicker and gets her budget under control, I can't sling $600 for her every month when I got a car payment and am currently unemployed.
