How much would you need to be paid to not watch tv for an entire year?

[FiveThous]

What's your number?

So television/movies would realistically be the only entertainment I'd be giving up? 100k.

Sports, particularly football, would be the big one for me, but I'd probably do it for 50 grand. I like to read too and could just do that instead.

Basketball would be the sport that would bother me. I don't watch football anymore. Haven't for years. I just know I have a backlog of games that could easily keep me occupied for a year.

I don't watch much basketball any more. The futility of the Cavs last time LeBron left made me tap out on this rebuild. I wasted way too many hours of my life watching shit basketball during those years.

 

[Huber.]

Not an individual sports fan and team sports most likely won't be played until 2024 so put me down for $50.

20k

Don't really watch

 

[Benway]

The internet has supplanted my television time, and without sports I'm down to zero minutes anyway. I'd gladly take $20 for it. Actually, I'd like to give my tv away for free.
Now ask me how much it would take for me to give up the net!

 

[Jack Brickman]

I will say that it would make working from home even more boring than it already is to not have TV on in the background.

 

[bob2the2nd]

If you mean any TV period, as in no rented movies no netflix, etc. 75k. I watch movies while im working out. Wife and I watch movies on the weekends but thats about it.

If you mean TV as in live cable but apps are free game... shit 5k?

Also does porn count as TV?

 

[Cavatt]

30k would do it I think.

Bob asking the important questions.

Another question is are you allowed to go to bars (some of you may be old enough to remember when people did that) that have TVs?

 

[macbdog]

Seeing as I don't own a television- 1 million dollars.

 

[MGMT]

Television would be way easier to give up than music. I think @Jack Brickman gave a reasonable number at 50 but music would take something substantial. I need it.

Enough to put me in a beach house on the Carolina coast.. peace out
