well i have a couple of questions.
1st friend, is it his grand mothers house or his folks?
does he pay any utilities in this house electric, water, sewer, thrash, phone?
does he do any repairs to the home he lives in, i'm talking about paying out of his pocket for them?
does he eat much, does he buy food?
does he have a cell phone with a high a rate plan, or does he use his folks plan?
what about his ride, do they help him with that, gas, repairs, insurance?
you have to realize that there are many things that come with being out on your own. i bet you his folks pay out about one half to two thirds of that
$45,000 to support him.
this is just low ball rent for low end apts in my area, $575 to $800. utilites not included. for that add, depending on how efficient the places are,
which most aren't, again low balling,any where from $100 to $300
the second friend, well i don't mind doing stuff for the boss, so long as it does take any thing out of my pocket.
but when you lose money from time missed or paying out of your pocket, doing their errands it's time to go.
and besides i don't think they can make him do it, if they fire him he can take it to the labor board. after all a strip club is not walmart.
now you your getting by cheap, do you rent a house or do you have a room mate that pays all the other stuff.

ETA: i just thought about this, how big of a farm does your 1st friend father have. can he run it himself or is all family or does he hire people to
work for him?
if it's him by his self and and he is in his sixty's it might be to much for him at his age and it's their only support. if they lose that then what
happens. grandma goes to a state run place and the family loses the farm and out in the streets.
if it's family maybe in these hard times his father needs every one to help to make it. he shouldn't bitch if he eats and has a roof over his head.
if he has to hire someone to help them work maybe he couldn't afford to keep grandma place and support him.
there could be many things that are going on that his father hasn't told him.
lets take your pays 300 rent and 150 food like you do 450x12=5400 alone. so how much more would he be paying out for all the other thing needed in
life that his folks give him.
