21 People Share “Really Dumb” Hobbies That Only Rich People Seem To Like

Article created by: Vėja Elkimavičiūtė

To each their own, people often say, referring to, well, basically anything in life. And hobbies are in no way an exception. While some people spend their time enjoying the thrill of kitesurfing, others might be equally content with staying at home and doing some knitting. And who’s to say that one is better or worse than the other?

The internet community, of course. When it comes to Reddit users, for instance, they seem to approve of certain hobbies more than others; and they don’t shy away from sharing their opinions. That’s what they did after Redditor u/zer0w0rries asked the ‘Ask Reddit’ community what are some dumb hobbies mainly practiced by wealthy people. Scroll down to find the answers on the list below and see what hobbies redditors see no point in taking up.

Being cheap. One of my friends has the money to buy the restaurants we eat at, but if we split an item she’ll fraction out how much she puts towards it. “I only ate 1 slice of pizza and there are 6 in total, so I’ll put down 1/6.” She also factors this into tipping. Drives me mental.

I just watched on Netflix rich Arabs cloning camels by the dozen because that first camel was really pretty.

#18

Making one dollar bets with other rich people that disrupts and ruins normal people's lives. Social experiments and such.

Basically using regular people as playthings.

Even though I enjoy the taste, collecting ultra expensive wine and not ever drinking it. Technically it can be an investment, but if they never sell it then its not really an investment IMHO.

12 metre yacht racing. Like standing fully clothed in a cold shower and tearing up hundred dollar bills. By the million.

Collecting high-end trading cards. Even worse is buying high-end unopened boxes/cases to open. Drake spent an estimated $200k on unopened cases looking for [one specific card.]
