You haven't provided much information about what you are doing but a few typical numbers may help you. Probably, your largest user of download bandwidth will be video streaming. Typically, 1080p Hi-Def will consume about 5 megabits per second of download bandwidth, per active stream. 2160p (aka 4K) will consume about 20 megabits per second of download bandwidth, per stream. Unless you are typically moving around large files (for example, 50 gigabytes), the amount of bandwidth you require is probably a lot less than you think.

There will be a "sweet spot" in the pricing that may very well provide much more bandwidth than you need. For example, I have 200 megabits per second upload and download with Quantum Fiber for $30 per month. This is their lowest cost offering and represents about 10 times more bandwidth than I can utilize.
