Pays off

OTOH, if you can afford basic necessities, hobbies are just a rounding error on top of them.
Kind of depends on the hobby, for example if you live in a country with some mountains and you like hiking than it's a negligible cost, if you like skydiving then I am gonna go out on a limb and say that costs quite a but more.
And if your hobby is warhammer 40k or MtG then just pickup a cocaine habit instead to cut costs.

People that don't have to pay rent every month have the luxury of pursuing expensive hobbies. Housing is so expensive that permanent homes are so far out of reach for many workers...

Some hobbies can be really cheap. Just bought a bow and arrow set for $150 and an archery range nearby only costs $5 for the whole day.

My partner can fall asleep at any time of day. I'm jealous. I'd spend a lot more time unconscious if I had the option.

One of my hobbies is making and drinking cocktails. I'm spending kind of a lot on it and I have a bit of an issue with actually storing all the bottles I buy (see: housing is expensive), but if I was drinking even half of those cocktails in bars I'd be spending several times as much. Drinks in bars are expensive, proper cocktails even moreso, and if you want ingredients that are better than bottom-tier ...

Just found out there's a well-reviewed archery range 9 minutes away from me. Thank you for the suggestion, I'll definitely be checking it out!

Buddhism has entered the chat!
Learning to sit still, in the quiet, and just being has been one of the biggest improvements to my mental health.
Of course, a bigger improvement to my mental health would be if we had an economy that worked for the people rather than for the rich...

I think concert tickets are expensive only if you listen to pop music. I recently went to a concert with line up of Cannibal Corpse, Mayhem and two more bands and the tickets were just $50.
Classical music is even a better deal. I was in the 2nd row to see Augustin Hadelich play Mozart and the tickets were less than $30. Lucky for me I’d rather see that than any pop music.

While it may sound ridiculous, I actually think there is some healthy outcomes of practicing minimalist lifestyles. Gives me a peace of mind and avoids having to spend so much time on 'managing my things'.
Although I don't know if I can go full on 100% minimalism... I do like to do things

Going to concerts is not a hobby. That's an entertainment expense.

One of the reasons I'm glad I live in the city. There're free concerts in the parks. Free movies, sometimes. I can bike or train to the beach. There're meetups for all sorts of interests. When I lived in the suburbs, it was a wasteland. At best you could drive somewhere interesting.

Chess seems unique in the sports/games world because randomness plays absolutely no role in the outcome. It is purely the other person's brain squashing your brain down into a beige stain.
