This is a really smart decision and I'm hoping that you're not just saying but will implement it. Considering that the movies shown are always repeated, I do not see any reason why you shouldn't cut that off already and redirect the money to somewhere else. Also, to save more money, you can download cartoon videos for your kids in a flash and they can watch them from there. Maybe every month you download a new set of cartoons for them instead of doing any subscription at all.

As has already been stated, saving money is of course always a good thing and directing your savings or at least a part of it to Bitcoin is very likely a good idea. It probably won’t change your life, but it shows that you’re willing to sacrifice and save to build yourself a better future. Over time this line of thinking can bring you major financial benefits.

What is there to think, saving money is always good. Just don't expect to get super rich from a small investment, because you need money to make money. The days of 100x returns in Bitcoin are gone, so the most realistic scenario is that if you'll save a year worth of tv subscription you'll make 3-5 years worth of tv subscriptions if you invest the money in BTC.

If you use TV subscription money for investment, what will you watch on TV? TV subscription may seem unnecessary, but you can also make budget for it in your monthly bill as you make budget for investment, you do not have to bore yourself to death because you are trying to invest in bitcoins, it should be enjoyable and everything necessary to make yourself not bored because you are trying to invest should be encouraged.

  As for me, I often watch via the internet, although I have a paid subscription to Netflix to watch movies for around $7 monthly for almost a year. So do you mean instead of paying for my monthly subscription to Netflix for $7, I should shift it to buying Bitcoin?

  I mean, I will implement DCA using my 7$ instead of paying it at Netfilix, and I will just watch movies for free monthly on the internet via YouTube and more. Is that right?

For almost 5 years, I haven't had any TV connection. Using smart TV through the Internet is better; I don't need to pay any extra TV subscription bills. Because almost everything is available on the Internet and most of our local channels have online broadcasts, For kids, there are a lot of YouTube cartoons, which is enough for them. I don't have much time to watch TV or use my mobile to watch movies, etc. during free time. So I think your decision to invest in Bitcoin instead of a TV subscription is more appropriate.

If you usually have a particular amount that you normally allocate to your TV subscription and perhaps you have lost interest on the TV shows, the money will definitely go to another budget if you are no longer subscribing, and if you have decided to allocate the money for your Bitcoin investment, I think it's a wise choice.

There's one of my in-laws who only subscribes to the TV channel when his children are on holiday; otherwise, the TV can go unsubscribed for two months or more, as long as the children are still in school.

I think you have a good idea, mate. Just like the first comment said, you can get most of the information you want on the internet.

Ultimately, television serves little to no purpose to human development...on the internet you can:
- Dig and find more important news.
- Potentially find the same shows, movies, and so on.
- Find cooking videos and recipes
- Look at international shows, news, events etc.
...
And isn't that really all that a TV has to offer these days? I think I am even being generous by not mentioning the negative effects that it can have on the brain.

Of course, if what you pay for TV can be avoided, your Bitcoin balance will not only increase at a faster rate, but your brain will probably be better off too.

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.
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.
