Trying to control my budget I'll attempt to limit myself to 1 or 2 one hour sessions a month.  I kind of blew through that in the addicting sugar bowl, but not that I got kicked off the site I'll try to bring down spending again.

I spend whatever is left over after bills, medical insurance, retirement fund and donations.

If I did not I would overspend on the hobby. I put the max 401K contribution ($18,500/year) plus the $5000/year catch up.  

I fund the hobby by trading stocks (swing trading mostly, and some day trading). If I have no capital gains, mutual fund distributions, and or dividends in my taxable accounts no hobbying that month. I spend between $200 to $800/month.  

I want to thank the board for encouraging me to get some stock trading training. 2017 was a very good year in my trading accounts.

Depends on what I can skim from my household budget without the spouse noticing.  Kinda limits the provider end to once a month but keeps me in SB's every week.

With most girls in my area averaging 800-1,000 hr more than i would lilke

...and too much. However, I do enjoy the experiences and that's the most important part.
