To most people today "afford" means they are able to make the monthly payments.




Sure hope you bought your house in cash. And if you're renting, just GTFO.

Why?

I qualify (according to mortgage companies) for a much larger payment than I'm willing to make. To do so would put a severe strain on my finances. So, I purchase something that I can really afford.

Just because they bank will lend you the money to make an $800 truck payment doesn't mean you can really afford it.

It is called having a positive and growing equity to debt ratio, and too many people that can "afford" new cars, and diamonds don't.
