There's silly spending, then there's stupid spending!
Read about a woman (a shrink?) who blew six figures online gambling. I call that really stupid spending. What was she thinking? Easy come, easy go???
Getting personal. I look at jewelry I own but seldom wear. Stupid spending. Now that I no longer have cable, I bought a $30 Roku for Christmas (a one time purchase) and look only at FREE channels. NO subscriptions for me.
I have one online media subscription at an intro annual rate. It expires next week. I have already cancelled and will not renew. I enjoyed it, but was unable to find out what the annual renewal rate would be and I deplore monthly billing. That's like being pecked to death by vultures on a monthly basis. Read an article online about a man who cancelled all his subscriptions and saved enough each month to make his monthly car payment. That's smart spending!
Call me thrifty, call me frugal, call me cheap. Call me debt free and happy.
