In this episode, I reflect on how gaming has evolved from a simple hobby into an expensive, subscription-driven ecosystem. From rising console prices and $100 blockbuster titles to the temptation of cloud and PC gaming, I share my personal journey of learning to game smarter—balancing enjoyment, impulse, and practicality. Through buying, selling, and rediscovering consoles, I've found that being intentional with my time and spending keeps the joy of gaming alive, even as the costs continue to climb.
