    Not the point of the post, i know, but who spends 70$ a month on on “gym”? I bought weights and a pullup bar for a one-time payment of like 50$, and i jog outside for free

      I mean we can pick this apart in a ton of ways. $60/m on clothes? My house would be 80% plain cotton T-shirts by mass. I probably spend a bit more than that in a while year. Typically that’s a carton of socks and replacing a couple pairs of pants which get damaged.

      But then I probably spend like $500/m at one bar near my house.

      I think my next door neighbors are not going to be thrilled to have 220kg+ deadlifts dropped above them.

      Having said that, I don’t spend 70 a month for the gym, and I currently have two memberships.

      A friend got a $30/month gym membership that has unlimited guest passes, so they bring friends. The machines are fun. I think there’s classes too, but guests can’t do those so I haven’t.

      I wouldn’t have the space for a home gym. I could sort out the shed with a new roof, but there is no power and the walls are done for, so 35 quid a month it is.
