Me and my girlfriend are in some kind of argument about boat and house priority.
I want to buy tuffy x170t
she think I shldnt buy boat and save money for house.
I think payment for tuffy is not bad and I think I can afford boat and house on future too.
I m just Torn on what to do. I have crappy 14' grummann that dad passed down on me. Would love to upgrade to bigger and fiberglass boat but again I have to keep my future other half happy....
What do you guys think I should do?
I used to travel all over the country racing a Camaro in Sport Car Club of America events.
I sold it so that I could spend more time with the family doing other things (she and my son always came with me to these races)
Two months after I sold it, we separated and then divorced.
You can guess what my opinion is.....EXCEPT.....Don't forget, not only will you have that payment, that you say you can afford, you will also have a MUCH, MUCH higher fuel cost, both in your towing vehicle, and the boat, and you will have insurance costs, (granted they aren't bad), AND those affordable payments last for 10-12 years in lots of cases.
The first couple years aren't so bad, but come several years down the road you will wish you didn't still have a payment. |
