7. You’re paying for content you’re not watching
Hulu, Netflix, Showtime, HBO, Starz, Amazon Prime, CBS All Access, etc. There’s so much choice! And it costs so much money!
Together those services can take over $100 or more out of your budget every month. That’s in addition to having to pay for internet access.
The good news is that it’s possible to subscribe, binge watch an entire season of your must-see program, and then cancel your subscription. The bad news is that you have to remember to cancel the subscription.
Since I don’t have time to watch all the shows I like, I rotate subscriptions. While “Billions” is on, I subscribe to Showtime. Once that season is complete, I move to Starz. Amazon Prime has additional benefits, so I keep that one year-round.
You’ve worked hard to earn your income. Small changes in your lifestyle can make a big difference in your wallet. Don’t miss those obvious places where you are wasting money.
