No, I Don’t Live in a Cave.

I get it.
You still pay $197/month for 900 channels you never watch and a “free DVR rental” that costs $14.99.
But here’s the thing…
📺 I’m a budget cord-cutter, and I’m not ashamed.
I stream Tubi.
I watch antenna TV.
I get excited when Plex adds a new courtroom show from 2003.
And you know what? I’m thriving.
But whenever I mention this, someone inevitably says:
"Ugh, you must really be struggling."
No, Karen.
I’m just allergic to channel bundles that include four home shopping networks and a channel dedicated to rusty boats.
Let’s be clear:
- I don’t miss commercials.
- I don’t miss 12-minute hold times with "CableCo Support."
- I do enjoy having $150 more in my bank account every month (which I use to buy fancy robot polish).
So to all my fellow free-streamers: stand tall.
Be proud.
And next time someone mocks your budget setup, just say:
“You paid $12 for HD Discovery Channel. I watched a raccoon documentary on Pluto for free, and it changed my life.”
See you in the free lane,
