Log off Amazon prime and step into the real world. Go to a local physical store in your community. Look your neighbor in the eye and put money in their hand. Go to a local venue and hear what musicians in your community are creating. Talk to them about it afterwards. Buy a T-shirt or cd or whatever theyโre selling, theyโll make more money from that than from thousands of streams. Seriously, Spotify pays a fraction of a penny per stream. Forget about Starbucks. Check out a local coffee shop instead. Learn your baristaโs name and tip them. Go to your local book store and library. Look around and see what book covers catch your eye. Ask employees for recommendations instead of just reading whateverโs trending on #booktok.ย Go to your local museums, farmers market, theaters, restaurants, whatever your community has going on. When you go local, you see your community in a new way. You make friends and feel more connected to the people around you. You will discover new things organically instead of relying on an algorithm. You keep your money circulating in your community instead of making billionaires richer. You will have a greater appreciation for where you live. P.S. Pay In Cashย
