    A bit of a bummer this weekend. I got news my expensive hobby is raising monthly rates by 40%. I knew it was likely a price change was coming since we just moved to a new facility and they got a bunch of new gear despite not raising prices for years, but damn there’s some serious sticker shock.

    Oh well, guess my FIRE number is increasing.

      A side benefit to FIRE, you get to a financial position where you can shrug and absorb the cost increase because you still value the activity enough.
