As a leisurely pursuit, you can now fly anywhere in the world for under $1000 (some planning required), or listen to basically any music ever produced, or play and record whatever music you happen to compose (a couple grand of music gear suffices), or read any book, or publish anything for the entire world basically for free.

But if your idea of leisurely activity is laying in a hammock and watch the clouds go by, it's still as expensive as ever. Time is as expensive as ever; for instance, look at your effective hourly rate.
