Quoted from JohnTTwo:

I really do not understand how or why people say pinball cost so much or so high.
I currently have 5 dirt bikes and am selling one this week KTM 250 SFX for 5k paid just under 10k for it so a 5 loss
We belong to a boat club and it cost us about 6k per year plus gas every time out.
I enjoy hunting and it cost me about 5k a year.
We enjoy vacationing Morritts on Grand Cayman 20k per year
Pinball to date has had a capital out lay but a positive ROI over all. Even if prices were to fall in half it would still be by far my cheapest hobby on a annual basis. I honestly do not know how many kilowatts a pinball uses but I know it doesn't pop my 15 amp circuit breaker.
What other hobbie do you do that is as cheap as pinball on a annual basis.

I can't seem to figure out why people think that dirt bikes, hunting and $20,000 vacations are expensive. I just sold my Huracan STO for $85,000 less than I paid for it. The staff manning my super yacht all wanted a raise, so that's going to cost me another $140,000/year.

And my repair guy just told me my private jet needs an engine overhaul.
