Is golf just 7th? wow.

For me art, charity, and learning (which would include reading) are the best hobbies in the your list. And of course the more money one has (being financially wealthy and not having to be worker) the easier it is to have hobbies.

If a worker is working 40 or more a week they don't have time for too many, if any, hobbies. Add to that having a family, kids and other responsibilities one might not have any time at all outside from work other than sleep.

F.U.R.R. ;)

I figure I can give my way to being a trillionaire, eventually! :D
Have an upvote, Angel! :*

This indeed is an interesting post #REAL

Good post. I'm sure most people would want to be in a position to help others financially! So charity of course, as well as some travel. I do love nice watches and oh to have a (or more than one)classic car, whitewalls and all!

Great post!
Might make me think, before knocking on the 1 Percent!:)

Very interesting, have never really thought about their hobbies before, your title hooked me and thank you

Very interesting. If we try to make a small anlysis we will end up with a lot of great deductions. I notice for example that we have to go to the 8th position to find the first intellectual hobby (cultural events). Reading comes at the 9th position and art almost at the end of the list in the 18th position. Therefore, if you want to become rich, you know what you have to do !!! Don't waste your time!!!
