Let The Nightmares Start

It’s official: I’m scared to buy a car.
There might be an opportunity for us to get a good car for little money plus the possibility to pay what we cannot afford now back to my husband’s father without interest and I can already see myself chickening out.

I keep on imagining all the lots and lots of money that will just disappear once we have a car. Money I am used to spend on books and CDs and DVDs and would like to keeping it that way.

Can someone please calm me down? Especially since having a car could actually mean a great benefit for my husband’s job, so it might not be that big of a financial burden that I imagine it to be.
