I understand (about being spoiled about different things). It just seems to me that if you only watch a fraction of what is on cable, what is the benefit that you are really being spoiled with ... other than spoiling yourself with the big bill each month. I mean, presumably, to be spoiled with something you have to relish in its benefits, right?
Well...if folk watch the same few things all the time then it's really, at the end of the day, just a *perceived* benefit that may or may not really exist, in reality, yet the bill exists in reality, every single month.
Like you, I know so many people who watch the same few programs a week, yet they have channels from countries where the people speak languages that they don't even know! LOL.
Listen, I spend ridiculously too and am trying to stop that. I was just saying that cable is one thing that I can cut back on. Maybe for others, it will be something else that *they* can live w/out.

SummerChild...myself like so many people have become spoiled! I don't really need HBO esp since Netflix is $5 a month! And most of the cable channels are useless (think of how many times we flip 100+ plus channels, only to say - There is nothing good on). Most people only watch certain programs anyway.
But I am looking to save. I am not going to assume that my job is safe or that I don't need to save...I am going to try to stop these bad habits.
