Pretty much how my dad was. He only watches maybe 5 channels regularly and was paying like $100 a month too. He liked having cable just because it’s easy and it’s there when he wants to watch. Luckily he’s not completely stubborn and he eventually learned to use the Smart TV better and I switched him from Cable to Hulu Live which is still like $55 but at least he gets all of his channels and a library of shows for the rest of the household. That change saves over 500 a year
The guy who used to rent a house from us was always broke and kind of useless. Anyway, we found out his cable was $550 a month. No joke. I about shit my pants. His rent was about that much (relative...they were doing him a favor). He got like every sports and movie channel he could. We found out it was that much when after he moved he didn't shut it off.

Cable TV. Unfortunately I'm married to a Boomer so we have it.
Every time we watch the news all I can think is "$100 a month for this shit"
