Is ESPN worth it?
If you’re a sports enthusiast, evaluate the sports you typically watch (golf? WNBA?) and the cost of the plan that includes them. One way to think about this is to use the 50/30/20 budget, in which 50% of your money goes to needs, 30% to wants and 20% to savings and paying off debt.
In this kind of budget, streaming services would fall into the “wants” category. You’ll have to decide whether you’ve got room in that bucket for sports streaming charges, and if you don’t, you may need to cut back in other places, like weekly takeout or entertainment.
