Turns out PC's are a cheap hobby.
Many hobbies are cheap if you choose wisely out of your possible interests; and then go with cheap, good enough options rather than getting swept up in online echo chambers (where nothing less than top tier is acceptable).
Motorcycles: Excuse me
Sports cars: Hold my beer
Planes:
Yeah but they don't pull the dopamine like the expensive ones do
Relevant af... Been flirting with the idea of finally buying pro DJ gear after like 16 years of being a DJ. Have done a jillion weddings, and a healthy dose of misc functions from corporate shindigs, galas, house parties, bars, etc...
Have limped along so far by borrowing gear whenever I had a proper gig (plenty of friends in the scene) but now I have some fun money budget. The spicy pro gear is soooo stupidly expensive but about time I had real gear off my own. The cereal box bedroom toy deck only gets you so far.
The boobs on that dude on the left.
I do some cross stitching and it hasn't been bad. Even using kits instead of doing custom ones. I've got like $120 CAD worth of large kits and, at the rate I'm going, they'll probably last me a decade or maybe my daughter will inherit some of them.
I'm well into year 2 of working on the current one.
#expensivehobbyautism it gets us all at one point.
I got some 35mm film cause I was playing with the idea of film based astrophotography on my 3d printed telescope and wanted to test out a few different types of film.... And since the local places are charging $16+ per roll, was going to develop them myself.
Am I doing this right?
My bike is my pride and joy but good god she is also a money sink.
Do you mean bicycle or motorcycle? What do you find yourself spending most of your bike money on? Most of my bicycle maintenance is for brake pads and the occasional replacement chain; not as many replacing tire tubes after getting nicer tires. Although I haven't been able to enjoy mine lately after putting on weight and 4 seats I've tried still make my butt numb after 20 minutes.
There is a hell of a lot of things I would have loved to turn into hobbies if weren't for the money
