It feels like everything that exists these days is to drain money from me. Tourism is out of control. I don’t even want to travel anymore. Video games, kids sports, eating out… It’s all overly expensive just because they can.

It’s frustrating.

    I play ice hockey. It’s gone up 20% in the last 4 years. It’s something I won’t do without, and is a true passion of mine. It’s worth it to me.

    Kids sports? Major grift. Ice bills are outrageous. Sometimes the only option is travel. Materialistic parents demand three uniforms, team jackets, bags, shirts, hats, trading cards. I miss kids meeting at the rink and playing the game so the parents can drunkenly argue like they are supposed to.
