3. Gambling (high stakes poker and black jack)
It might seem oxymoron to say that gambling is an expensive hobby. But if you’re serious, you might want to go to Las Vegas or Atlantic City, which will add traveling costs to initial gambling costs. Most people drink and eat out while gambling, which also adds to its cost. The average American puts $400 into gambling yearly. In 2010, casinos earned a gross income of $125 billion, if that tells you anything.
