You're wrong, it has to do with culture. Very little is effected by economics. It reminds me a lot like hobbies people associate with rich people, like traveli

You're wrong, it has to do with culture. Very little is effected by economics. It reminds me a lot like hobbies people associate with rich people, like traveling. If traveling is a real hobby for you, you will find a way to do it even if you're poor like I did when I was young. For me it was through mistake airfare scanners and hostels, but some very poor 3rd world people literally just walk / bike around the world. Sleep in tents, and pan handle / or do some odd jobs for food money. If there's a will, there's a way.
