It is NOT necessary but I spend 6k for both personal use and work. I download lots of videos and podcast. Maintain 12 websites and blog and have 4 YouTube channels (not very active though).

For blogging alone, it would probably take 2.5k a month if I streaky only blog. 1500 day data plan on any reliable network, then the remaining I break it to 200 night plan on Glo (if you don't finish your night plan on Glo but you recharge, they would postpone the expiration date).

If you can exhaust 16GB, then that is not normal. Go to your computer settings after connecting to the internet. Chose your hotspot and set it to "metered connection"

Your computer is using up those data.

Search Google for better step by step instructions on how to make your data connection metered on your computer otherwise you might go broke buying data always.
