Sabusuku Binbō
How much do you use subscription-based services?
I have numerous subscription agreements, mainly for music, video, manga, and cloud services. However, I have realized that many of them are unnecessary.
This phenomenon, where one continues to spend money on unnecessary subscription-based services, is sometimes referred to as 'sabusuku binbō' (サブスク貧乏) in Japanese.
Since 'sabusuku' (サブスク) is short for "subscription," and 'binbō' (貧乏) means "being poor," 'sabusuku binbō' literally means "being poor due to subscriptions."
To avoid being 'sabusuku binbō', it is important to carefully consider whether or not the subscription-based service is truly necessary.

サブスク貧乏
皆さんはサブスクリプション方式のサービスをどれくらい使用していますか？
私は音楽、映像、漫画、クラウドサービスなどを中心に、多数のサブスクリプション契約をしていますが、あまり使っていないものも多いことに気が付きました。
このように、不要なサブスクリプション契約を続け無駄な出費を続けることを、俗に「サブスク貧乏」と言うことがあります。
「サブスク」は「サブスクリプション」の略、「貧乏」は "being poor" を意味するので、「サブスク貧乏」は文字どおり "being poor due to subscriptions" という意味になります。
本当に必要なサブスクリプションかどうかよく考え、サブスク貧乏にならないよう気をつけましょう。
