Frugal and Energy Efficient Living

You don't have to keep the cable TV stations, just the data connection. I have an office at my business partner's house, which is too far from a switch for DSL, so we had to upgrade to a T1 line, which isn't cheap. On the boat we use Verizon Wireless. Fortunately, we are grandfathered in on an unlimited 3G data plan ($59/month). Otherwise it would cost us around $500/month if we switched plans to 4G, or went to another carrier. The wireless industry is in flux right now concerning unlimited data plans and we may lose it, which will be a major drag.
