I've been involved with all of these over the years though not all as
hobbies. I can definitely say (being on my 3rd marriage) that "women" win
out as the most expensive followed closely by airplanes. I would put cars
next followed by boats and finally horses.
Unfortunately, the list leaves off motorcycles which I would put right
behind airplanes....
