So what's this expensive hobby of yours? You beat around that bush real good.

Dollhouse miniatures. Making a 1:12 scale interior of houses/rooms, including the people. Mine are set in various historical times. I make a lot of it myself, rather than buying, but (one of my) my dollhouse cost $700 just for the basic shell. I got it as a 17th birthday present. (designed it myself. It's fecking huge though, hence the expense), and I still have to work on wallpapering, painting, windows, doors, flooring, etc. I've got most of the furniture and accessories already for it though, so it's just sitting in there without wallpaper so far. Mum's in the hobby too. And it's a way to socialise with people, you can use any craft for it, just tiny obviously, and it's also highly imaginative. Most of the people who do it though are retired, so I'm just a freak. :P It's not like I go and spend hundreds of dollars on it each month, but about once a year at the fairs, we lash out and buy... quite a lot of stuff. Or supplies to MAKE our own stuff.

also... I didn't think it was relevant what hobby it was. My dad and brother used to be hugely into model trains. A friend of mine is obsessed with knitting. Another buys hundreds of dvds. Another has a very expensive social life. Another goes to plays and concerts a lot. Unless people want everyone to never spend money except when absolutely necessary, everyone spends money that could go to starving children. No reason to pick on hobbies for it. Especially not one certain hobby.

I was just curious. And I'm not picking on hobbies, cause I have hobbies too that I spend way too much money on myself (books mainly), but I do it within the constraints of my budget. I'm talking about the people who have hobbies they spend money they don't have on, and then turn around and beg other people for money because they realize too late that they don't have enough to pay their bills that month.
