Description

When one listener gets a job offer in the Midwest with a 40% pay bump, it sparks more than just career contemplation—it opens the door to a bold family experiment: combining households with the in-laws. In this episode, Pete, Kristen, and Damian tackle the emotional and financial complexities of multigenerational living. From structuring ownership and avoiding sibling drama to protecting retirement assets and managing expectations, we walk through the pros, cons, and creative setups that can make this kind of arrangement work.


Spoiler: Loving your in-laws might be easier than figuring out who pays the property taxes.
