It was explicitly stated that that ended when he broke up with Dora.

Neko_Ali:
Counter point on the finances issue. We really don't know if anything changed when Claire and Bubbles moved in. Bubbles I'm pretty sure never paid. First it was 'my friend lost her work place and home, she's crashing my my room'. Then it was 'we're business partners' and now it's 'we're business and romantic partners'. Faye and Bubbles' finances are tied together at this point, and bad enough that Faye was trying to budget out eating. I doubt they have the money to pay two shares of rent.

Claire before moving in was living at home and apparently had and still does not have a paying job. First she worked as a student in the library, now she's a TA. We don't know if she gets paid for either of those, but it's quite possible not, and certainly not much. She would probably get some money from loans or her mother... But the question is up in the air if she has money to pay rent.

So it's entirely possible despite two people moving in, the finances of the apartment haven't changed. Also, Marten is capable of saving. He has a fair bit saved when he bought the expensive guitar many years ago. It's not impossible that he has savings now... Or he might not. It's more the point that he isn't planner, but a money in, money out person and hoping or assuming nothing bad will happen.

hedgie:
Maybe my memory is off, but didn't he have the savings when he bought the 8-string, and not the other one?  I thought that the other fancy guitar was after he won a bar bet with Beatrice.

We do know that Claire is insistent on paying rent: https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3466

Jakk Frost:
"Should have no trouble finding work" ~ Except for, you know, that pesky problem of the availability of similar jobs.

Claire might want to have a word or two with you about that!

(*snort* I know it's just a typo, but I couldn't resist  :-D)
