the hobby thing really gets on your nerves after 3-4 times of spending a shitton of money into every single one

Yeah but if one of my friends wants to take up leatherworking, guitar, beer brewing, 3d printing, miniature painting, drone photography, Super Nintendo, bass, embroidery, scuba diving, or stiltwalking I have some gear and between 3 weeks and 6 months of knowledge to get them started. Oh, also, does anyone have a good source for parts on old gi joe toys?

Since I'm aware of this I just focus my energy on choosing the perceft balance between price and quality of the required equipment and then never actually buying it because by the time it's chosen I've already found another hobby.

It drives my partner crazy when I do this for absolutely everything. I think it's a valid methodology for efficient... living?
