00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:04.980
<v 0>As three wise poets once saying, bills, bills, bills, can you pay my bills?</v>

2
00:00:04.985 --> 00:00:08.550
Can you pay my auto bills? When it comes to bills, bills, bills,

3
00:00:08.550 --> 00:00:10.260
and all your reoccurring payments,

4
00:00:10.320 --> 00:00:13.050
those can be great opportunities to find some savings.

5
00:00:15.510 --> 00:00:19.020
Here's some opportunities for savings. When it comes to those monthly dues,

6
00:00:19.110 --> 00:00:22.080
a good place to start is any subscription services you have,

7
00:00:22.085 --> 00:00:26.070
like streaming platforms. I have a list of all my reoccurring payments.

8
00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:30.030
That way I can do an audit of what I actually want to keep and what I can get

9
00:00:30.030 --> 00:00:33.420
rid of. It can be really tough to get rid of those subscription services,

10
00:00:33.450 --> 00:00:37.230
but if you're not getting any value out of it, why keep it? Why pay for it? Oh,

11
00:00:37.230 --> 00:00:40.200
now I'm gonna have FOMO about not being able to watch Ted Lasso.

12
00:00:40.230 --> 00:00:44.100
It's also a good idea to at least do a yearly audit of your utilities and bills

13
00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:47.190
like insurance. In the case of insurance,

14
00:00:47.220 --> 00:00:49.920
maybe your needs have changed and it's time to reevaluate,

15
00:00:49.920 --> 00:00:50.910
and for your utilities,

16
00:00:50.915 --> 00:00:54.270
you might qualify for a program where you can save money by switching to more

17
00:00:54.450 --> 00:00:58.380
eco-friendly devices, and don't hesitate to make changes if it saves you money.

18
00:00:58.410 --> 00:01:00.900
I felt like I was overpaying for my internet services.

19
00:01:00.930 --> 00:01:05.010
I switched providers and now I'm getting great service for much cheaper.

20
00:01:05.100 --> 00:01:07.080
I also just did this with my cell phone.

21
00:01:07.080 --> 00:01:10.770
I was on an old legacy plan and then I upgraded to a new plan.

22
00:01:10.770 --> 00:01:14.580
I'm paying less and getting more features, and if you haven't already,

23
00:01:14.730 --> 00:01:16.770
go paperless and do autopay,

24
00:01:16.860 --> 00:01:19.590
oftentimes you'll get a discount by choosing those services.
