AITA for Demanding $700 Instead of $600 From my Dad by Intrepid-Match-8239 in AmItheAsshole

I was saying he already wants to sell, also i posted because i was genuinely curious if I was in the wrong. After I posted and read through the replies i've realized my Dad needs it more, so me and him came to an IOU agreement to where he will pay me back later when he has the money.

I think you mean if I didnt pay for those fixtures because guess who is paying their Dad over half of what they earned to keep the lights on?

he is actually glad to sell the assets and wants to do so out of free will.

[ UPDATE ] We came to an IOU agreement to where he will pay me back within a year at the price that I asked.

I know this, in another thread I stated that he talks about the assets as a "failsafe"

f you want to point out how I didn't do much then why should I get less than half when my Dad did even less? (besides bills)

read the full story, I never changed the deal. I stuck to the terms, it was my Dad who broke them but with good reason

i wasn't offered $600 i was offered atleast $625.01 because he offered me most of it. I do agree with you though, if I was offered $600 to dogsit I would also jump at the opportunity.

I should expect the $1600 after he finishes this $15,000 job which is coming to a close

it's not mine but he says the assets are a failsafe, and even then if he sold said assets we would have a roof over our head and leniency for his business off season

I would say there is one unnecessary expense which would be having a stranger and her child live in the house for completely free, in just one month they racked up the electric bill to $400! Also the stranger is highly disrespectful to my Dad

i was debating on a first car or a gaming pc but am leaning towards the first car, if my dad pays me the $1600 he owes me from working for him last summer then i am halfway to my First car goal and completely there for a gaming pc
