The next step that could make you a better person is giving up TV. I know that it sounds stupid at first, but this move totally makes sense to me. I stopped owning a TV 4 years ago. This is good because the TV can easily kill your time. Time wasted staring into the tube just flipping channels? You bet.
What do you do for entertainment you ask? I still watch TV shows online and occasionally movies on DVD (Hulu and Netflix). The difference is that I choose whatTV shows to watch and whento watch them. A subtle difference, but an important one.
There is also the financial part. Whatever is saved on the initial cost of the TV and the monthly cable fee can go into other activities.
