Can I afford .........?
Only you know your limits.
Are you using your limits to the fullest?
Are you over capacity of your limits?
Or nervous about pushing to the limits and not succeeding?
I too get nervous about big decisions in life, it is normal. As we get further into adulthood we require things such as homes, vehicles, good schools for our kids, activities for our kids........
Decisions sometimes are made on a whim and smetimes with caution. We all want our Family to have the best and be a part of all things. Kids should have a great time growing up, plenty of friends and involved in activities they desire. We want to be involved in the schools and communities for our Families. These items take a financial commitment from ourselves to make sure our Families have the things they need and we want for them.
Research is encouraged before big investments. But don't allow the anxiousness of the unknown keep you from your happiness.
