<prompt> Human: Background: Im in the final year of my undergrad degree and renting 1 room of a large house with my boyfriend, in the same city as my parents and in-laws.We each individually had a healthy savings balance before November, during which I sustained an injury and had to take 2 months off work had no leave left due to using my leave earlier in 2015 for student work placements. My SO was able to pay the rent for a little while and my parents gave me back some money they owed me, yet I still ate massively into my savings and am back at work but earn very little.For the bare minimum costs of living here, we pay 450week rent, groceries, petrol. Boyfriend earns 600week and I earn between anywhere between 300-500 at my 2 part time jobs. At the moment, that is leaving us with an uncomfortably small amount of money left over for savingsemergencies, and I am having trouble saving up for the 10 weeks of unpaid student work placement I have upcoming aka 10 weeks where I will also be unable to work at my paid jobs.Options:1. My parents: We can live with my parents who travel 60 of the time for work in their 4 bedroom home with ample space. They dont own it and have asked us to pay 180week for utilities, internet etc. Also, my mum has mental illness and can be... challenging... to live with and has not been known to respect our privacy. Pros: bigger space. Cons: likely relationship friction, money.2. SOs parentsmy in-laws: They have a much smaller 3 bedroom home with only 1 communal living area, though they own their home and are quite financially comfortable and would likely only charge us between 100-150 for the added expenses of us living with them. Pros: cheaper, better relationship with ILs. Cons: tiny house - wed be living out of a single bedroom costs of going out more to get privacyspace.Would we come out about the same money-wise? Which is a better option?We only plan for this to be a 12-18 month stay so we can save for a deposit on a housebuild our savings back up to be able to rent alone.  <response>: Take the smaller place. A comfortable, small space, is better than a bigger space thats difficultuncomfortable to live in. Its a no brainer, really.
