I'm not sure if we agree or not. I don't feel like we are saying the same thing. I said

    The financial support Q gets from roommates and family means her employer has to pay her more, not less, to keep her as an employee.

That is pretty clear to me. Do you agree?

Sorry to hear about your struggling friend, it sounds very stressful, and reminds me how fortunate I am to have reached a point in life where I don't have financial anxiety, thanks in part to support I've received from family and rent-sharing roommates.
