Admission is free.

There's a well-known person on this site that is currently running about 5 STRs, making a huge amount of money, and by his own admission, spends around 2-3 hours a week on it. 

Examples: Instead of getting general admission tickets to a concert, you'll be able to buy back-stage access and meet the artistInstead of going out to your local dollar-beer night on Thursdays, you could afford to go out and get bottle service (if that's your thing) Instead of going to Chipotle for lunch religiously, you could take all of your close friends to a more expensive restaurant on you- without having to think about itInstead of backpacking across Europe and eating ramen the whole time, you'll be able to travel comfortably and experience whatever intrigues you, passing up on nothing (again, if that's your thing)These are just quick examples off of the top of my head, as they are the things that I myself end up 'passing' on most frequently.
