One nice thing about the ukulele is that you can buy a moderately-priced uke, join a group, and play your heart out.
In real life, you will find new ukes that you simply must have - brands you had never even heard of, but you believe they are essential for any serious player. Buying those ukuleles can add up to a lot of money.
Another consideration is all the peripheral expenses associated with owning and playing the ukulele. I just took a look at Quicken and saw how much I have spent on books, cases, humidifiers, instruction, stands, strings, "stuff," and tuners. Add in all the events I have attended, and the total is an intimidating figure.
Yet, I have no regrets because ukuleles make me happy, and that's all that matters.
