affording

Being able financially

Affording is the present participle of afford, carrying the sense of providing or making available.

Something affording a view offers that view; a situation affording opportunities makes them possible: a balcony affording a glimpse of the harbor.

The financial sense—having enough money for something—appears less often in this form, though not affording the luxury works.
