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.
Thinking out loud comes with advantages as it allows you to know other people's perspective on something you do personally and the chances this forum have availed us to think out our opinions loudly have solved so many problems for people out there.
I have stop subscribing for long a while now because I rarely have that time to watch the TV. Plus there's practically everything on the internet now so instead of those subscription, I prefer to leave my TV for my game console alone. Since it's a smart TV, I prefer to go on the internet to watch my programmes including football games. Although many may still see this as a personal decision to take, like single people won't see the need to pay for subscriptions, many married couples will see a reason to that.
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.
What do you all think about this idea?
What you did can be called recognizing value for money. It is better to invest than to subscribe in any instances but all lies on the interest of the beholder. Some people can go extra to satisfy their pleasure as they won't mind to go for multiple subscriptions where they could have saved such money for investments.
Your 4150 in Naira I presume will amount to around 4 dollars when converted to USDT and saving as little as that in a year can give you up to 50 dollars worth of investment. It could even go more than that in the event that the prices skyrocketed in the market. And that in itself is a great idea.
