Would you rent out half of your bed the other side that you're not sleeping on ? This is obviously . If you're a single person , would you rent half of your bed out to a stranger , to someone that you don't know ? Well , hey there . So I do what most of you do , what all of us do .
I was perusing the news or news feed , I guess is more accurate on my social media and looking for stories and kind of prepping things for the podcast , and I came across something that I couldn't not share with you , and I just want to preface it with .
If you're looking for something deep and intellectual right now and , you know , really relevant to what's going on in the world , this is not for you . You might want to just scroll on past this one , but if you want to hear something wacky and weird and just head scratching , then stay and take a listen . So are you ready for it ? Good , no , you're not .
I was not . So let me start off asking you a question Would you rent out half of your bed the other side that you're not sleeping on ? This is obviously . If you're a single person , would you rent half of your bed out to a stranger , to someone that you don't know , and that would mean that they would be literally sleeping beside you in your bed .
No hanky-panky , no funny stuff , just sleeping . Would you do it ? Well , a woman in , I think she's in Queensland , australia . I can double check that . I'll have to read some of this to you . She says well , first of all , her name is Monique Jeremiah . Yeah , monique Jeremiah .
So she rents out half of her bed and she earns more than $600 a month doing that . And yeah , she rents half her bed out to Perfect Strangers . She said she started doing this during the pandemic , which is even more interesting . You think that would be less likely of a time to do something like that , if you were ever going to do something like that .
And so here's the thing . Monique is in my opinion . I think she's an attractive woman . Let's see , I have a picture of her for you . There you go . She's an attractive woman . I mean , I'm thinking of risk , I'm thinking of danger , I'm thinking of scary things that you know you're obviously she's vetting these people to some degree .
As a matter of fact , I think it says in here the first person that she offered this service to was her ex-boyfriend , and that was kind of how it all started .
She basically asked him if he wanted to write out the pandemic with her and you know , completely platonic and renting out the bed or half of the bed to him , and then since then she has rented out half of her bed to other people .
Now , it does not in the article , it does not go into how she vets these people if they have to have like a background check or I don't know what she does . It doesn't really explain that in here . By the way , it's in the well , it's in the Daily Mail .
I like my fluff sometimes , okay , and after reading all the garbage and the news and the you know politics and all of the other things , you need five minutes of just fluff . Here's our fluff for today , okay , so , but that's the big question . The edit is Queensland , australia .
I was just checking as I'm reading this to you , and she came up with a name for this service . She calls it hot bedding . Hot bedding is what it's called and she says if you're gonna do it , you should have a very large bed , so there's lots of space and you should set up the ground rules beforehand .
I'm gonna have to say it would be a hard no for me . I can't fathom sharing my sleeping space with a complete stranger , I don't know . She says her prices are going up with inflation , so the cost of living has gone up in Australia quite a bit and her fee is going up . I think she said by like another $160 .
So what I say was $600 , so $760 is gonna be a strange number , but that's okay . So the question is would you rent out half of your bed to a complete stranger to earn some extra money ? Tell me in the comments . I already gave you my answer , but just to be clear , it would be no , no .
