Help me split shared costs fairly. Shared costs: [rent, bills, food, with amounts] People: [names, incomes if they're happy to share, rooms/sizes if relevant] What feels unfair now: [details] What we want: [simple method we can stick to] Ask me up to 3 short questions first if anything important is missing. Wait for my answers. Then: 1. Two or three fair methods (equal, income-based, room-based) with a worked example on our numbers. 2. Pros and cons of each. 3. A Google Sheets layout to track who paid what. 4. A short house agreement paragraph. Only use what I've told you, leave blanks for anything I haven't given, and don't invent facts, figures or products. UK English. Stay in this ChatGPT chat. Do not turn on apps or connectors, and do not use memory from another chat.
