People are sharing ‘rich people’s hobbies’ that are actually not that expensive – 17 surprisingly affordable pastimes

‘Taking walks, not walking somewhere, but just taking random walks. Where I’m from, poor people do not see this as an activity and they scoff at you.

It costs nothing.’

‘Cooking fine food at home. It just takes time and practice. You get to a point where only the best restaurants can do better than you can do at home for a fraction of the price.’

‘I think a sleeper one is scuba diving. It’s surprisingly cheap to get into. Now if you factor in going to the best locations and whatnot then it changes things due to flight costs. The hobby itself is rather cheap.’

‘Shooting. Clay pigeon shooting is not that expensive if you don’t do it every week. It’ll cost a few hundred pounds for your certificate, and you can rent a shotgun from most clubs or shooting grounds. You still have to pay per clay/cartridge but it’s probably not as expensive as most people think.’

‘Investing. Everyone makes it sound like you need thousands of dollars to get started. It’s just not true, I started out with a few hundred dollars and anything extra I had laying around when I could manage it. I put what I could afford into an ETF for 10 years and it’s grown into $700k. My first job paid $38k plus commission, if I did it so can you.’

‘The secret to ‘rich people hobbies’ has always been that it’s the time that is expensive, not the gear.

You can do almost anything cheaply, you just need the time off of work/survival to do it the long way.’
