Hi Chapos throwaway for obvious reasons.

I’ve managed to buy an apartment, two bedrooms. I live in it, but I rent the other room out. Is it unethical for me to hide that I’m the owner?

I don’t really lie-lie, like if I’m asked straight up I’ll answer, but I’ll avoid it if possible.

It’s mostly because it creates an odd power dynamic and I’d rather have a flatmate than a tenant if that makes sense.

Reason I bought is I don’t want to deal with landlords, obviously.

Do I get the wall?

    or if the profit is directly covering basic needs that his job isn't enough to cover.

    If only his victim were given the same consideration.

    Look, I don't give a shit about theft on principle. Steal from corporations if you need to, or if it would make life easier, or just for fun. I don't care about that. But stealing from your fellow worker is unacceptable, especially one that is indisputably worse off than yourself. I bet OP's tenant would love to be in such a position that they could purchase a home and have to worry about things like whether leeching from the working class earns you the wall (it does)

    Again if OP is just covering the expenses incurred by the tenant/roommate then whatever, but if there's profit involved then I've got nothing in common with him
