Given the increasing cost of TV subscriptions in my country like GOTV, DSTV, etc. I often find myself watching the same movies every month. Sometimes, I can't even watch them due to a lack of power supply, making me feel like I'm wasting my money. So, I've had an idea: what if I were to invest the money I usually spend on my GOtv subscription, which often goes unused, into Bitcoin? Many people pay for these subscriptions but aren't satisfied with the content. I'm just thinking out loud, but by diverting the funds from TV subscriptions into Bitcoin, I believe I could potentially achieve greater satisfaction.
I will say it's a choice, but just imagine you are at home and bored doing noting with no TV to watch. How are you going to feel? Everything is not just about investing in bitcoin, I cant stop entertaining myself because I want to invest in bitcoin. If you can survive without subscriptions, it's fine, but to be honest, life will be kind of boring to me, and if you have kids, then it won't really make sense because they will want to watch cartoons, and I also prefer watching football at home. I wont discomfort myself just because I want to invest. I have the amount that I do use to invest in bitcoin, and I also have the amount i do use to take care of other necessary things.
If you end up using your TV subscription money to invest in bitcoin, won't you get bored at home? and I am sure your attention will always be on your investment. If you are always thinking about your investment, then you won't be able to hold it for the long term. Any slight increase in the bitcoin price will push you to sell it, so after investing, you need other things to shift your attention from your investment.
The package I do is Gotv Supa which is about 6400 every month. I'm thinking of reducing my package to a lower one like Gotv Jinga which is about 2250 for the sake of the kids so they can watch their favorite cartoon and I get to save 4150 amount into Bitcoin.
If it will be okay with you, then you are free to do that, it's your decision to make, but don't do things that will affect you because you want to invest in bitcoin. Bitcoin investment should be done with the amount you won't be using for a long period of time. When investing in bitcoin, always have some amounts to have fun with. If you keep on depriving yourself of some things because you want to invest in bitcoin, for how long will you do that because nobody knows when the bull run will start.
