Not sure what the national average, but I don't have Cable TV, Netflix, Amazon Prime, nor Youtube TV/Hulu/etc. So my monthly subscriptions are:

$85 Home Internet
$20 Family Cell Phone
$5 Podcast Subscription (Sam Harris, Peter Attia, Rob Reid)
$5 File Hosting Access (offcloud)
$2 Google One / Drive


I'd love to sign up for more podcast access (ex. Mysterious Universe), a MasterClass subscription ($10/mo), and unlimited access to the Claude AI ($20/mo)... but I need to lower my Home Internet cost. It started at $40, but its been slowly going up.

Great points about monthly subscriptions. I just need to figure out how to keep better track of them. Any tips?
