So my freind wants to move in...

[RedGajin]

As the title says, he lost his job and needs a place to stay until he gets back on his feet (lolcliche).
He's a good freind, has paid back the few debts he owed to me in reasonable times.
I don't think he would steal anything (not that there's much to steal besides my wallet and my computer, but I doubt it would sell for more then $50).
I have a 4 room apretment (3 rooms really, the bathroom is really small and connected to my bedroom), with a bathroom, kitchen/eating area, main area room and bedroom.
I don't know why, but for some reason I'm hesitant to say yes D:

Help? Opinions?

whats all this "he" stuff.

now a chick friend that lives for free. she pays in other ways ;D

Say Yes.
He is your friend so you should help him get back on his feet.

[Name is Unavailable]

I dont see why not. Make him pay back the money you spent on his food though when he gets back on his feet.

[Vegetarian Zombie]

Sure, let him move in. It's the good thing to do.

Maybe I'm homoloveual

But that may take a long time, and I'm not very well money wise either, I make just enough to get by and offer myself a few luxuries. Like paying my share of internet.

Yes, but charge him rent

[RedGajin]

Yes, but charge him rent

He doesn't have the money, and I don't know if I can afford paying for him and me.

Maybe once he gets a job he can start paying rent? It probably isn't unreasonable.

Tell him yes, but under one condition, he pays a little rent.
Like the first month dont charge him anything, then as time goes by slowly raise it.

But he's a good friend, I just don't know if getting behind on rent pay is worth it...

Well, have him be productive in some way. I'm sure he probably feels ratehr washed-out after losing his job. It is often gratifying to have stuff to do.

But its not the fact that I couldn't stand cleaning up after him and stuff, its the financial problem.

That isn't what I meant... I meant treat him as a productive member of you family. Allow him to do stuff around the house, that kind of thing. My uncle is/was a drunk, he lost pretty much everything. His wife, his job, his kids, now he lives with my family. He works at my dad's vacuum repair shop and finds it very fulfilling after he hit rock-bottom with alcoholism.

Making him feel good isn't worth going broke, it may seem harsh, but that's just how I feel. I don't have a job for him at where I work, our boss can't afford it.

OOOOOOR, I think I could handel ONE month or so of him being there, if he doesn't have a job then, I would have to kick him out.
I may sound like a douche, but it makes sense.
