There are absolute necessities in life.
1. Food
2. Clothing
3. Shelter
4. Cable TV
I'm hoping that once your eyes hit number four, you did a double take and found it completely outrageous to call cable TV a must have necessity.
Shockingly to me, I'm finding people who treat cable TV as if it belongs on that list of necessities.
Yes I'm shocked.
Listening to people talk about the cable bill, is like listening to people talk about the gas, sewer, and electric bills. It's treated as if it's just another necessary utility. As if one couldn't function without cable.
Entertainment has become a necessity.
No...no...entertainment has become a high cost necessity.
People spend $100, $125, up to $200 a month on cable TV.
They treat the expense as if it's absolutely necessary.
Some may go without gas, or other more important things, just so they can spend all that money on cable.
Have we lost our mind?
Being entertained through a high priced cable package with a vast menu of channel choices is not a necessity.
Cable TV should not be treated like some unremovable grief causing anchor that's strapped to your back against your will. You don't need it. You can live without it. Don't give up more important things just so you can have cable and all of those specialty channels.
We live in a time where you can get access to endless entertainment with an Internet connection.
You can spend $10 a month and get Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu, etc.
There is absolutely no need, whatsoever, to think you must spend $100 or more just to get access to entertainment.
Our minds have been massaged to think entertainment is a necessity.
It's not a necessity.
Ooops, I'm repeating myself..
