If you don’t spend money on things you enjoy, you are wasting your money.
A 7€ MTG Starter Set.
And now I’m stuck.

Never get into Modular Synthesizers.
Saw a YouTube video yesterday of a sim racer hobbiest that spent upwards of $700+ on literally just a wheel, shifter, petals, etc. Like not even the seat or computer or monitor or anything. Literally JUST the wheel parts.
Which is crazy but I have no way to complain as I’ve spent like 1,000 on my computer setup at least even excluding the actual PC.
Then there’s Steam…

Oh dear, I think I have a problem. I wonder if that counts keys bought for games from other sites like humble bundle redemptions? Even if it does, I guess I should focus on my backlog.
Over a decade+ that’s not horrendous. I’ve probably spent around $2000 on computers for gaming in that same period. I know people who’ve dropped far more than that in a single day for their hobbies so gaming really is a pretty cheap hobby
A nice ukulele is around 100$. Voilà.
I might get into ukelele. Any good suggestions? What’s the cheapest one I can get that’s good?
A shit one is even cheaper
Agree. But having played on many different ones, I’de say instruments under 50$ are too shitty too be enjoyable, especially if you’re learning.
Can be true but like all things it depends. In the 6 years I’ve been into 3d printing I’ve observed that lots of people compulsively mod their machines. I just print stuff. Filament is cheap and I use free online software to do designs. The repair parts I’ve made have actually paid for the machine by being able to keep broken stuff instead of replacing them. But I’m cheap. I think people who are determined to spend money will find a hobby to spend it on.
Never understood the obsessive tinkerers, all that work to have something worse than a Bambu P1S. To each their own ig, I just see my printer as a means to an end I don’t want to mess with it. I want to mess with the stuff I build with it
As someone who learned subtractive machining (milling, turning etc) I find additive machining very interesting. My friend bought a cheap printer recently and I’m excited to try it out.
Horses, recreational vehicles, motorhomes, boats, sports cars… I’ll just settle with my watercolors. I will however splurge on Daniel Smith paints.
Having a hobby in a price gouging capitalist hellscape.
Gaming used to not be like that, but now a good GPU alone costs 800 to 2500 bucks. Sure you get away with cheaper components but at what cost, you got to be patient gamer to enjoy this endeavor.
The Main Reason I became an Indie Gamer.
It’s not that I can’t afford it, it’s just that it isn’t worth it for me.
Bought a 4070 super for 600. They have come down a lot
You just should play different games.
For example ping pong runs on integrated gpus.
My 15 years old i5 750 upgraded with a 1060 can play almost anything. You could literally play great free games for the next 10 years on it without spending a dime. Maybe some gamers are doing too much? There’s no need to upgrade your pc every years to get 2 more fps…
The boobs on that dude on the left.
“All you need is a pair of running shoes!” And another. And another. And another. Ad infinitum $$$
But how expensive is obesity?
Those shoes are damn worth it!
Take up running they said. It’s free!*
Sweat-wicking shirts! Compression socks! Non-bouncing shades! UV-proof hats! Neck buffs! Trail shoes! Gaiters! Racing shoes, carbon-plated! Recovery flipflops! Base layers! Jackets, rain and windproof! Reflective gear! A smartwatch! Training plans! Runners’ memoirs! Club membership! Race signup fees! Gels! Electrolyte mix! Protein bars!
And have you tried spirulina, it does wonders for recovery (so they say)
This is why I turned to hardcore drugs. Much cheaper.
…Factorio counts as a drug, right?
Schedule 1. No inherent benefit whatsoever. Just time dilation.
Hey man, you got any of them combinators? I got a serious jones for some arithmetic combinators.
Yes
Never get into actual warhammer, only videogames.
