<prompt> Human: Hey everyone, Im not sure if this is the correct subreddit to ask this question but it seemed relatively relevant so here I am. Anyway, I had an interview for a software development internship today and the bossman offered a stipend to cover my living expenses, but the thing is my parents have no problem paying for my food Im 17, and Ill be living with a family friend for the job. How much does it make sense to ask for? Thanks!  <response>: Ask for enough to reasonably cover what you would be paying for rentfood.
