I could get into a rant or article on its own when it comes to watching less tv. Over the last year or so I have drastically reduced my television time to about 4 full hours a week. Let’s be honest everything is only, weather, communication,etc. Ever since I have reduced my tv watching time I have been very productive in every aspect of life. I work more, I study more, I work out more, there is just so much out there to do in life.

I was just talking to my roommates today about getting rid of cable tv at least, and only paying for cable internet. Most of us can watch our favorite TV shows online. Of course, there’s that one roommate who can’t live without the TV on 24/7…

Good job Dee. There is nothing worse than people who complain about no money or no time, when in reality there usually is time you just have to make certain sacrifices. Granted, many people do not want to cut from time watching tv or hanging out with friends, but during rough times some sacrifices must be made. Even if you working a job that does not pay you your full potential you should be optimistic about it. At least by working in your spare time you do not have the opportunity to go out and spend your money.

Paying for convenience is a debate that could go on forever. My general rule is that if you can research the job and perform it in a decent period of time then give it a shot. If the job is too complex or too time consuming then maybe you are better off leaving it to an expert.

Good tips. Just today I went and interviewed for a second job, and was hired. It doesn’t pay very well, but I figured the $xx per hour I will make at the job is better than the $0 I make sitting at home in my spare time!

The tip about doing things yourself is really good. I was one who liked to pay for convenience (when I was in college two years ago), but now that I’m in the “real world” I really try to do things myself.
