According to a survey conducted by Forbes and One Poll, 45% of respondents claim that they have canceled subscriptions to streaming services due to rising costs, which are eating into their savings.

If you follow the 50/30/20 budget rule, 50% of your income should go to basic necessities, 30% to wants, and 20% to savings. Spending your hard-earned money on multiple streaming services might not be the wisest financial decision, especially if you already have many financial obligations.
