I was talking to co-worker "Bob" today who has a one hour commute and car pools with a married couple that live near him. Bob and the husband of the couple alternate driving a week at a time. That got me thinking...Bob is one person and the couple are two people, yet Bob drives half the time instead of a third of the time. Had the married couple not been married, each person would drive a third of the time. Is Bob getting ripped off or is it normal to consider a couple as "one" when it comes to cost splitting?
Another twist...suppose Bob and the married couple share a 2 bedroom vacation unit for a week. Bob uses one bedroom and the couple uses the other bedroom, but the three of them obviously share the common areas in the unit. Should Bob pay a third or half?
