Your system is already full.
Like, actually full. Not "I'm busy but I have time for this."

So that thing you're thinking about buying? It's not going into empty space. It's compressing into something that's already bursting.
Your budget: "We can afford this."
Your actual life: "We're already drowning."
Affordability and absorbability are not the same number. One measures money. The other measures how much more you can carry before something breaks.
