I don't see myself as rich, more like middle class, and $10 is nothing I worry about too much.
- JetSpiegel 9y agoNot $10 as a lump sum, but a subscription?
- im3w1l 9y agoGet netflix. Binge watch for a month. Cancel. Repeat when you feel like and can afford.
- brewdad 9y agoThat was exactly the point OP was making. For a poorer person, Netflix might be a few times a year splurge. What happens when an anticipated slow month turns busy? This person is torn between "wasting" $10 that they really can't afford to spend again next month or neglect other things in their life to get their money's worth this month.
- im3w1l 9y agoI read him as saying, "have netflix always and always binge watch".
- noxToken 9y agoI thought that comment was strange as well. For $10/month, Netflix provides a bevy of entertainment. It's probably one of the cheapest forms of entertainment - even more so among paid forms of entertainment. If you're hurting for cash, try to get an amplified indoor antenna and Netflix. You'll make a one-time purchase of $20-$40 for an antenna[0], (likely) receive a decent channel selection[1], and $10/month for on demand streaming.
