Husband wants to buy a new truck that will financially stress us out
My husband is the only one working right now and I'm a SAHM to 2 toddlers and pregnant with baby number 3. Obviously since we are living off of one income money can be tight but we make it work.
We only have one car but now my husband wants to buy a truck. It cant be any truck though he is looking at ones that cost near 30k. That's going to cost us like 500 or 600 a month and we dont have money for a down payment on it either. I dont know why he thinks we can afford this.
He already bought a brand new bike that cost 12 grand this spring, he said in the summer he can ride it to work which he has done 1 time then said its too cold in the mornings and hasn't taken it to work again. Im like so you bought a brand new bike just to ride it for an hour or 2 on some of your off days? We have long, harsh winters so there's no way hes riding it for more than 4 months a year here.
If I try to tell him this is a bad financial decision then it will start an argument of him telling me im selfish and that its his money and he can do whatever he wants with it. Im just really annoyed that he cant see how dumb he is being with money.
