💨 Abstract

In the inaugural "The Money Problem" column, award-winning journalist Sarah Davidson tackles a reader's dilemma. Esme, 31, faces a familial dispute after offering her newly divorced mother a spare room in her Edinburgh flat. Esme requests her mother to contribute to their mortgage, while siblings accuse her of being money-grabbing. Davidson advises that charging half the mortgage is unreasonable, instead suggesting your mom cover only the additional bills and extra costs from an increasing household.
