> it just so happens the cheapest entertainment these days is in fact in your own house.
These days? That is pretty much true since advent of home computers in 80s/90s.

But i think we both agree entertainment got cheaper while outside life more expensive. We can grab internet connected devices for barely $100 and a single entertainment subscription (Netflix, Gamepass, Spotify) is maybe $10/month for an entire catalog. I can't even go out for lunch for $10 unless I do Costco.
The local video store would run a deal over the summers when I was a kid where you paid $30 and got three, two night rentals (new releases excluded) a week for the summer school break. Being able to grab a new game or movie every other day (since you were already there to return the previous one on time) was great.
