    I believe it. I’m doing OK financially, but I’m cutting back. Killed my Prime and Disney+ accounts before the rates went up. Did the same for Max when I realized all I watched was John Oliver, and finally got everything out of a storage unit I had rented a few years ago, and shut that down. Saving over $100 a month now.

        “Over $100 a month…” On a monthly scale, Prime, Disney+ and Max aren’t that much, just a lot if you pay a year at a time.

        Amazon Prime = $139/year / 12 = $11.58/mo.
        Disney+ = 139.99/year / 12 = $11.66/mo.
        Max = 199.99/year / 12 = $16.67/mo.

        So, yeah, of the “over $100/mo.” the bulk of it was the storage unit. The services pushed it over the top.
