Lack of productivity from poasting us undoubtedly #1
I buy a lot of camping gear but that's cheap compared to cars or watches

cars are a hobby in that i read about them constantly, not that i spend all that much besides my lease
camping sounds fun, wish i was more outdoorsy. really don't take advantage of california much
what kind of camping gear is expensive besides tents or whatever?

no old or rare books. i'm not a collector, and i'm constantly getting rid of unnecessary books.
a good chunk of the outlay went to technical books, which tend to be on the expensive side and usually become obsolete within a few years. much of the rest went to books either for learning foreign languages or in them, which also get pretty expensive very quickly.
want to read aristotle in greek? pay $50 for a book whose translation you can pick up at a library sale for a dollar!
https://www.amazon.com/Aristotelis-Metaphysica-Greek-Language-Aristotle/dp/0198145136/
it also doesn't help that in the united states, the market for second hand foreign language books is non-existent, which forces me to buy a lot of new books.

I only get rid of books if I feel they're truly "obsolete," i.e. last Christmas I sorted through all the books at my parents' house and approved getting rid of most of the random children's books. However, my store of novels, history, and other nonfiction continues to accumulate.
I mostly buy from all the assorted online booksellers. BetterWorldBooks probably is the most common seller, but when I recently bought all of Evelyn Waugh's books Alilibris ended up having them at the best price point. If a book is going to cost me more than $5-6 books I find it worthwhile to look around a bit.
Besides that, I do like stopping into library sales, rummage sales, and used book stores and just looking around.

Nice - what do you create and what hardware are you running?
I'm repairing a Matrix6r today - hoping to get it hooked up and integrated into the setup.

- In the past driving events. I got fairly good, enough to instruct at some tracks, but it gets expensive between tires, brakes and the money you wind up throwing into mods on your car. Not to mention the time involved, hotels, etc. I’ll get back into it after the IPO and I’ll just buy a dedicated track car and do as much of the work on it as I can myself. It’s a very social thing, so good if you want to meet guy friends outside of your professional network. I did the OLOA twice, friends with Brock Yates before he died, stuff like that makes every dime I spent worth it.
- Photography, but that’s not really expensive since I buy my gear used and at times even sell things for a couple bucks of net profit. About $4k into it at any given time but could get all of it back if I had to sell.
- When I lived outside of CA and had access to do whatever the fuck you wanted gun ranges with national match 1000yd setups I really enjoyed it. I’ve never been an own and arsenal type though, max is 1or 2 handguns / rifles at a time. Once I GTFO of CA I’d like to do this again as well, even if it’s just Ruger 10/22’ish iron site plinking at 100-200 yards.
- I do like decent mechanical watches, like another poster said it’s not really a hobby, but I’m fairly versed on most movements and camera gear buy used / sometimes profit when I sell.

You have the idea. Here’s a rough estimate. This wiill go down significantly next year now that I’m not new to the sport
New carbon bike: 2.5k
Indoor smart trainer: 800
New wheel set: 1k
Upgraded other parts (saddle, pedals, new shoes): 500
Bib shorts, jerseys, entry fees for sportives, energy gels, etc make up the rest

Music though it's not terribly expensive. Prob spend a few hundred per year on music equipment and fees for studio rehearsal time though lately thats been paid out of our compensation for gigs.
Soccer too. Figure $100 per year for new shoes. $250 annually for regustration fees for coed outdoor leagues and $10/week for indoor pickup games.

jfc you pedantic assholes
first of all collecting shit is a hobby. watches for example: tons of time is consumed learning and reading about watchmaking, its history, various brands, not to mention wearing them fashionably (changing straps, cleaning etc)
second of all, we’re all mid-30s skinnyfat fucks who aren’t out skiiing every weekend.

most of my hobbies just have a big one-time expense, then its not so bad.
- guitars - I have like 5 electrics, cost several thousand dollars, love playing every day
- golf - bought some taylor made irons as an expense, but rarely play expensive courses, usually just cheap public ones
- skeet - bought a $1500 shotgun (nice skeet shotguns cost several times that) and a skeet/sporting clays club membership, other than that its like $10 a round for the clays and ammo. Not bad
- pistol shooting - self explanatory - not cheap
- running - cheap (although some injuries might cost me some dough soon)
