We agreed to split everything. My co-parent earns triple what I do.

Side A (age 61)

Rent, food, holidays — all split down the middle. I clear about a third of what my co-parent does, so "equal" means I have nothing left at the end of the month and they have $5,000. Equal isn't fair here.

Side B (age 60)

I earn more because I made choices that were miserable for years. Splitting by income turns my salary into a shared asset and my career into a joint decision. I'd rather pay for the extras and keep the base equal.
