<prompt> Human: Im not fully sure if this belongs here. So heres the situation. I will be leaving my college this year I am currently a sophomore and a girl in my roommates group of friends lets call her Emily will be taking my place in our apartment. She went to the leasing office today and found that the rent would increase 250 a month for her compared to if I renewed my lease for the next year. My roommates have then requested that I renew my lease, but make Emily pay me back each month. Do you guys think I should do it? I am more concerned about me being liable for the apartment. Im also pretty new to finance, I dont know if this is a common occurrence or not.  <response>: Dont do it. not your circus, not your monkeys.
