25 Tips to Save 20% for Your Retirement with No Effort

August 4, 2020 · Retirement Life

20. Unsubscribe From Streaming Services You Aren’t Using

This is a big one that we’ve seen crop up more and more often. We’ve gotten so used to streaming services nowadays, despite being so new, that we often don’t realize just how much money we’re spending! Most households have more than one subscription, too, which can really drive up the costs.

A combination of Hulu, Netflix, HBO Now, and Disney + is simply unnecessary! What about YouTube Premium, Spotify Premium, Sirius XM radio, and Pandora Plus? How many of those are sucking money out of your bank account without you even thinking about it?

By limiting yourself to one service per category you’ll see how much extra cash you’ll have at the end of the month and you’ll see how worth it the switch was. Not to mention the fact that you aren’t bound by a contract so you can switch between services on a monthly basis if you really want to. The bottom line is to not pay for all of them all at once while you’re just enjoying one or two at most.
