From "negligible" to "I have another house inside my house" levels, depending on your hardware.

A close friend of mine runs a single beefy server at home, which is currently ~35% of his monthly bill if I'm not making mental-math mistakes.

As far as serious hobbies go, 35% of monthly electric bill is not breaking the bank. How much do people with other hobbies spend monthly on parts for their project cars, race entry fees, gym fees, "high performance" gear, Track fees, etc?
I didn't imply that it's a high amount. It's just an example I can refer reliably.

I'm not a stranger to expensive hobbies. I have at least a couple of them. Photography and high end stationery being two of them.
