I mean, $2k for a hobby isn't the worst thing ever. I've known people who blow that at a strip club or in a casino in a weekend. 

My hobby is wildlife photography. I wince every time I think of the money.

$2k for a good piece of glass would be welcome.

Ya. The lens I use the most was 13. And I have three other lenses. Then there's two camera bodies, tripods, the travel...

When I worked the NASCAR circuit, I just rented extra glass, of needed, depending on the track. Local shop hooked me up, and “the boss” was much more akin to expensing that as a write-off then outright purchasing.

Part of me misses that time, part of me doesn’t.

A V8 has never left me covered in glitter or given me a drunken OTPHJ.

Different strokes for different folks. [That's a level 3 dad joke right there folks]

I stand by mantra of: "Anything can be a hobby as long you indicate it on your taxes and lose money doing it."

I just spent $45k on foundation repair. Why not another $10k on this?!?

The foundation repair at my previous home cost $600. (pier and beam foundation)

Having raised a boy through little league, select, and high school baseball, I think this is actually pretty stinkin' genius.  Probably cost a total of $10, and only about $.50 if you happen to have an old segment of 3" PVC laying around.
