So Worth It!
I finally bit the bullet and added up all my subscriptions, and I must say that I'm relieved. I thought I was spending much more than I actually am. My TV spending (which includes the total price of Amazon Prime) is still less than my cable bill was when I cut the cord. I can't imagine living without some of these apps and services. This is what I pay to stay entertained, informed and to keep my digital memories backed up.
