If there is a great advice I got to give is to tell you to cancel your cable-tv or satellite-tv account. These are the reasons I believe you should cancel your cable or satellite-tv and do it right NOW!!!!!
1.- save you money How much does it cost you to have your 100+ channels services account? $49dlls for cable, $30 for 12 months and later $50dlls and with a contract of 24 months. Your are paying your hard earned money for a service that you do not use most part of the time(11hrs at work- counting getting ready, commuting and lunch, 8 hrs sleeping and 5 of leisure time). If you cancel your account you could be saving at least $360dlls per year. You could use that money to spend it with love ones or just saving it for an emergency. I am not counting all the money you safe by not looking at the commercials and advertisement and therefore not generating superfluous wants that become debt in your credit card or a $0.... saving account.
2.-have more time to yourself You come home from work, if you are lucky you love your job. But if you are not lucky, that work place is a stinky place than makes you miserable and all you want to do when you come home is forget it. You use the cable- tv, you want to forget and not think anymore about that hole that holds your creativity and live from you. You could be doing some exercise to lose weight, you could planning your exit plan from that soul-sucking job or you could be volunteering to make you feel better and other people better, you could be making love to your wife/husband/girlfriend/boyfriend or reflecting of the reasons your are not making love????? but noooo!!!! you are watching 100+cable- tv. You are losing valuable time if you are watching more than two hours of tv and you are losing even more if it is reality show...... I know, I've been there too. ..... my guilty pleasure!!!! Real housewives of NY!!!!! I can watch it on the internet but I choose not too.
3.- you will be smarter cable-TV is a stupefy-er. It takes from you the ability to think clearly, to focus and the ability of action. The 100+ channels will drag you and your mind into an entertaining world where you are just watching advertisement and consuming media like crazy. You will be smarter if your turn off and cancel your cable-tv or satellite-tv.
4./ You will be more informed. Be a better informed citizen All the stream media that is among the 100+channels and the "news" shows are just entertaining propaganda. Fox news is just a successive line of "news" with a right-wing bias. msnbc is "news" with a left-wing bias. I want facts not the opinions of the commentators over the facts. You need to turn the cable or satellite off and look for the REAL NEWS on the internet. This a list of good and reliable sites to get your news or go directly to c-span.
5.-Not being a victim of advertisement anymore. Not being depressed. Advertisment makes you life miserable. I noticed it when I was watching one of the episodes of The real housewifes of NY and the commercials were full of good-looking models that seem out of this world. After watching such goddesses one takes a bath or looks at the mirror and find your body thousands of light'years far from those goddesses. The only thing to do is to be depressed. Online there is a lot of advertisement too, but it seems less pervasive and you have more control of it.
Do not take me wrong.... I do love tv. I do love watching movies, specially documentaries but 100+channels cable or satellite for $$$$$money is crazzzzzy!!!!!!.
