To buy or not to buy...

Post by Technikhaus »

So the decision time, I hate this :/
I'm finding out in the next few days, most likely next week. Whether or not I can source the wheels I want in NZ.
Now, do I wait (6 or so months) and save for them, or take interest free finance.... someone help me decide! haha :lol:

I guess if you are 100% sure you can pay off the finance fully within the intrest free period, then either way is good.

I'm pretty sure I will be able to, as I should be back to working full-time by mid next year, once I finish my Bachelor.

Don't finance them unless you are 100% sure.

Thinking about it, I should have no issues paying them off in 24 months, It's only 6 Months till I can work full time again, and it's only a few K :p

and yes yes, I'm just trying to talk myself into it...

Haha, trust me, I'm tempted. I just don't want to get too excited, just in case they aren't able to source them.

The fact that you have to ask suggests that you probably shouldn't.
