Roommate for extra cash flow?

I'd personally choose a male friend over a stranger make sure you are comfortable enough with your friend to demand rent and keep the place clean and do his fair share of work, keep it down when it matters, and respect your privacy.

Female's are a liability more than an asset. They can have hot friends they can introduce you to or not but they will constantly try to create problems out of nowhere.

Yeah it's fun, either, less privacy more money.

Male friend would be best. As far as male vs female, just refer back to that famous old saying, "Don't shit where you eat."

Male friend 110%. Only if he's mature, professional, can pay bills on time, clean, and reasonable to live around. You do the same.

Stranger, because "C'mon bro, I'll pay you asap. We're bros" is the first thing you get once they're behind on rent.

Male, because as others said you shouldn't shit where you eat. And from my experience, female flatmates are annoying as hell (hair pins everywhere. Hogging the bath for hours on end. Influx of dudes in your appartment. Manipulative/back-stabby when it comes to disagreements to preserve the perception of "flat peace")

Do interviews and background checks. If you don't feel like you hit it off immediately, move them to further down on the candidate list.

Set up a good schedule together with your flat mate (so it seems that they have a voice). Lay down how bills and chores are split. Lay down some basic rules (visitors, noise, etc).

CON: Coming from seven years of solitary, it's going to suck at first. No privacy, roommate might not be neat as you, etc.

No sex preference. Females make fine roommates, just don't try to fuck them. Prefer a friend, maybe a co-worker you know.
