Then go for a walk in the closest park instead of a hike an hour away.

Play volleyball on the free net at the local park instead of signing up for pickleball and buying great.

The people who want to avoid activities and socialization will always pick the more expensive activities so they can dismiss them. Yet go into the real world and people have no problem finding ways to socialize and have fun without spending much money.

Coincidentally, my neighborhood just put up its first volleyball net a week or so back. It was stolen within two days lol

That’s unfortunate. Generally the poles are metal and permanent. It’s common for people to bring their own net when they bring their own ball. A basic net is cheap

Yea or really, people just go to the beach and chill without playing anything
