there has to be a list of hobbies one can try that cost practically nothing:

Solving Rubik cubes (a high quality speedcube is about 20$)

Crocheting/stitching (needles and yarn after cheap)

Writing (free)

programming

… (please expand if you have any ideas)

Drawing (stop pretending you need expensive material do draw nice things, pencils and erasers are the only requirement, and a good sketch book can be found for less than 15 bucks)

who even says that drawing is expensive? it’s so obviously cheap thing to do. we did it so much as children. if it was expensive no kids would be allowed to draw

Just look into anything that professional artists use. I have had the privilege of using my mom’s coloring pencils ever since I was around 5, and the full package (120 pencils) of those is almost 500€. I don’t use fancy drawing papers, but those are expensive as well.

every hobby can be as expensive as you want it to be. the cost ceiling is however much the richest person doing that hobby is willing to spend.

if 2 billionaires want to get into drawing as they are willing to spend a million for a box of fancy cryons, those products will appear in the market. even though they’ll be marginally better than those 500$ onces

but the question was about the cost of entry. and with drawing, the cost is negligible
