- Netflix is the streaming platform of choice for so many people across the United States, but the novel coronavirus pandemic has left millions of people without a job and struggling to pay bills.
- Cancelling Netflix for a few months until you're able to start working again is a good way to save money, but you also still need ways to entertain yourself and your family.
