What are some good hobbies/interests for someone in their mid thirties to pick up? - eviltoast

When someone asked me recently what I’m into I didn’t have answers. Existential crisis aside, what are some good hobbies/interests for someone in their mid thirties to pick up?

    Same with the piano but when looking around for starter keyboards all they can tell you is everything is shit unless to throw out $500.

    I don’t even know if this is going to click with me. I can’t spend that much on something that may end up gathering dust.

      I feel you man. It has to be 88 weighted keys otherwise it’s shit. 500 for the piano and $100 per lesson is what you’re supposed to spend. Put me off it, I bought a Ukulele instead haha.

      You can start with a midi controller keyboard for less than $200. It doesn’t have its own sound and you’ll need a laptop or ipad and software to actually play, but at least you won’t blow hundreds of dollars just to pick up a hobby. A full weighted keyboard will be a little more expensive though and can hit $300+.
