Options of buying?

You've got 2 households to provide for the last thing on earth I would do is buy a truck.

 

I would find another company to work for.

Buying a truck is going to bring a whole lot more expenses and responsibility... Sounds like you've got a lot going on and need guaranteed income...

What happens when the truck is in the shop for a week or two?

 

How much experience do you have? How much money do you saved up after you buy a truck?

You are risking too much.


Popcorn time!!

 

I would shop around for a better company before I would consider buying my own truck.

 

Don't overlook the obvious things like cutting expenses as well. If your ex is living in a mansion sell it, get her cheaper housing and mention that she can work to, why should you work to support two households while she sits on the couch all day.

 

How does one pay for two households?

 

Honestly you won’t do much better with your own truck. Not starting off anyway. It takes some time and luck to get profitable with a truck.

 

1 truck wont support 2 houses any better than 1 job will .
Just because you buy a truck it doesn't start pouring out money .
The thing it does do is start sucking in money !!

It will be about a month from purchase to first paycheck .
That's if it all goes well .

For 1 check to cover 2 houses both house have to cut out all of the fat .
Just food and roof over your head .
You might even need to share bedrooms and all live in the same house .

Neither house will be living the lifestyle that they are accustomed to that is for sure .

Good luck and I hope you all make it out the other side ok .
