And we're seeing that more with like the popularity of book talk where like people build whole rooms for their books.
They collect them.
They have these long term yearly reading goals of like 100, 200 books like that has to cost money.
And I was speaking to a friend about this recently who was saying and she's like a huge avid reader.
And she was saying how that culture has really taken the fun out of reading and like and the fun of book clubs and of the community because it's not leisure anymore.
It's almost like work.
It's almost like competition amongst other people in the community.
Just a quick sidebar.
I thought that was very interesting.
But finally, we have project based leisure.
That's our final category.
And this is short term.
It's often one off projects that are rewarding, like building Lego sets, volunteering for sports events or like building a really elaborate garden.
You know, you just you can't do that every day.
You might only do it like three to four times a year, but it is still like an ongoing project based hobby.
So that brings us to another fascinating debate.
How many hobbies should you have and how often should you be doing them?
This definitely like varies on age.
I feel like we all have the experience of being a kid or a teenager and having seemingly like thousands of hobbies that are then replaced by work and replaced by like the other things that we need to do day in and day out as we get older.
But then I think as we reach like an older age, almost becoming elderly, all of our hobbies come back.
