Dear Rich Lifer<\/em>,<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The so-called Golden Age of Television started back in the 1950s when TV sets began their explosive growth.<\/p>\n

You might remember shows like I Love Lucy<\/em>, Toast of the Town<\/em> with host Ed Sullivan, and Gunsmoke<\/em>.<\/p>\n

These classics paved the way for networks to start adding even more content.<\/p>\n

In the \u201860s, TV networks started showing full-length movies that had played in theatres. As the supply of movies started to dwindle the networks started producing their own “made-for-TV” movies.<\/p>\n

Today, we\u2019re going through another Golden Age of Television. Networks are investing billions of dollars into content creation.<\/p>\n

Even large corporations like Amazon have their own movie and TV studios pumping out award-winning hits.<\/p>\n

But with so much great TV comes ever increasing, expensive cable bills.<\/p>\n

The Wall Street Journal recently cited data from Kagan, S&P Global Market Intelligence noting that the average cable customer pays more than $90 a month plus another $57 a month for high-speed internet.<\/p>\n

Compare that to monthly streaming services from Amazon, Netflix and Hulu that tend to run between $9 a month up to $45 a month plus internet. It\u2019s a no brainer.<\/p>\n

You can even stream live TV and sports now for less than you pay for cable, plus there\u2019s no commitment. Most services can be cancelled with the push of a button and you\u2019re never tied to any lengthy contracts.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re fed up with soaring cable bills and ridiculous monthly charges, it\u2019s time to take the plunge and cut the cord.<\/p>\n

Before I show you how easy it is to ditch your cable company, let\u2019s cover some of the pros and cons first:<\/p>\n
