Second Thoughts

I have been having second thoughts about buying a used car, especially in the current economic climate. I know I said that my budget is only MYR5000. I know, it's not much but it could still buy a pretty decent use car. After checking through various auto classifieds, I think I may have to up my budget a little to MYR6000.

However, buying a car is not a problem. In fact, I could even purchase a spanking new car. The problem is in maintaining it. Even though a car may be cheap upon purchase, under MYR6000, for instance, I have calculated that I may need to fork out about MYR10 a day, or MYR300 a month for fuel alone.

I don't know if it's worth it but I definitely will be tight financially what with supporting the family and Snoopy as well. And in fact, I don't even need a car as long as I am taking care of Snoopy at this point. Hmmm to buy or not to buy, that is the question.
