One seat.
Two tires.
Part of an air conditioning kit.
Not much really. Expensive hobby.
Backpacking - Either one really swanky sleep system (the full Zenbivy ultralight), or perhaps one crazy expensive ultralight tent like a Durston, or if we're going budget, an entire setup of basic gear including backpack, tent, cook system, sleeping bag and pad, etc. Everything needed to backpack you could buy for under 1000€ to get started.
5 good 45 min lessons with top tier coaches or 7 to 10 lessons with local coaches. So... Depending where you are in the journey, maybe 6 or 8 months of supplemental coaching beyond regular membership, floor fees, etc. Or it could get you like 1/3 of a costume for a lady.
I've been out of that hobby for awhile, but in my new "hobby" it will cover 2 weeks of daycare.
A new hobby doer, computer.
Two new hobbies to keep me in the reality^tm^.
for the twisted
It's just art and music. Plus a likely revival of old skill.
All you need to start playing Standard, Pioneer and maybe Modern in Magic the Gathering. Or like maybe half a Legacy deck.
In my other hobbies which are rebuilding with old lego by hand and imagination, baking and reading a grand will keep me good for a year. Or 5. Depends on motivation and how many free books I pick up.
A few years ago I finally sold my assortment of still-sealed merch I was given during my time at WotC (Phyrexia through Innistrad). It fetched almost $5k. Still, it's hard to believe a grand won't buy a thoroughly awesome legacy deck. Never really was a player myself tho and I haven't kept up with current prices at all, so I believe it.
Just cheked in on MTG goldfish, the price of land is too damn high!
Funny story - we used to have little in-house tournaments after work before a release, which I sometimes played in just for fun - I sucked at the game. But one time I was literally walking into the tournament room and just decided nah, not tonight, and went home. Found out the next day, everybody who participated in that one received a free Black Lotus.
About three or four fountain pens I've been planning to buy some day. Im not attracted to the really expensive a one yet.
Whilst my grow light is rather good, there are upgraded options I could take advantage of. For my small sized grow area I could try my hand at a small rDWC setup, a new light, and an automated system for persistently maintaining VPD (perhaps one of those ACFinity ones with the app, or a similar sort of thing).
Entrance and accommodation at a dancing festival.
You could buy a top tier modern deck, a couple of competitive standard decks, or a bunch of pretty good commander decks in Magic:the Gathering
A mtg cube; all sleeved in a nice box. Endless replayibility with friends with a few updates every year.
It's the dream.
Two surf boards, you only need one and can fix it pretty cheaply for like 20 bucks, but having a lot of surfboards is nice
Either a new roland fantom 06 or an audio interface and some expensive DAW.
It'll almost buy me three quarters of an 8 heddle loom, or buy me a nice benchtop milling machine to make said loom (and many other things).
It'll buy a really great larp outfit, a barely acceptable reenactment outfit, or half of a suit of plate armor for either.
well, my hobby is collecting posters. so probably a lot.
A pair of running shoes and the remainder will be blown on physio sessions.
