I’ve always pondered — What’s the purpose of the hustle and why do we grind every day because we seek wealth?

Today, I had an epiphany — the purpose of knowledge and wealth is to be free. To be free from government dependencies and illegal institutional monopolies.every

Multichoice Group, which owns DSTV, runs a monopoly in Nigeria by being the sole cable TV service provider that broadcasts the EPL, La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga, Ligue 1 and the Champions League. Everyone {Startimes & TSTV} who have tried to compete in the live sports category have either closed shop or faced legal challenges.

My case is Multichoice keeps increasing prices sighting inflation along with a weak Naira as the reason and I agree. However, I only care about live sports. I should be able to pay for it alone and not for an entire package that includes channels I don’t watch and will never need.

At the moment, I haven’t renewed my subscription and I am exploring new methods to watch matches. Obinna, the TV seller, suggested I try pirated sites and apps to stream matches by plugging a Chromecast into my TV which then allows me to mirror my phone’s screen on the TV. I play a match on these pirated sites or apps on my phone and it mirrors on my TV.

He demoed it and it worked flawlessly without any lag. What’s required is I invest in a Chromecast, a dedicated phone for streaming and mobile data.

Long term, this method is way cheaper than continuing to renew my DSTV subscription. I have unplugged.
