If you’re looking for an easy way to save over $100 a month, look no further than your cable or satellite bill. Your family can cut the cord on pay TV, save tons of money, and still watch quality TV.
In fact, most of the award-winning, highly acclaimed shows aren’t on network stations. They’re on streaming services like Netflix and Amazon or premium channels you buy without a pay TV subscription.…
As a computer geek, people commonly ask me about whether they should “cut the cord” and what equipment and services they’d need in order to do that. There are so many different entertainment options that it can all seem pretty confusing to the average non-techie person.

Gene Wilder’s passing came as a shock to many of his fans. We can’t imagine him as an old man.
Over and over again, we watch his classic movies in which he’s young and vibrant, or, at least, middle-aged and vibrant.

If you still need some great Father’s Day gifts for men, you might want to think about whether Dad enjoys watching TV but doesn’t like paying ever-increasing cable or satellite bills. Moreover, despite over 100 or even 200+ channels, there’s rarely anything on that’s worth watching!
