I am planning to charge mine that, but plan to save 1/2 of it towards a flat/house deposit for them-unknown to them. I will also encourage them to save 10% at least. Living at home is cheap compared to the `real world`, plus they get washing and ironing for that!!
Spent week 1 £29.90
week 2 £62.64, TOTAL £92.54
Sorry if this is a big of a hikacking thread post but I thought it better in here where people know about it.

If you don't need the money, it's nice to be able to secretly save it for them. In reality, you're saving YOUR money, not his/her board and lodging. The money they give you is spent in full, and then some, every week that they are living at your home eating your food and being pampered by you (washing, ironing etc.).

Scoff scoff.
That must be a hefty tax bill. Hope you don't have a residential mortgage or you know of other ways to minimise tax liability.
