Watch out this is Lemmy, people want to just blindly complain about capitalism, and seeing someone succeeding will make them angry.

They can get angry all they want, my spine health deserves a hot tub and the hourly rental shop was $70 before it shut down for covid. :(

At $70 a pop, this tub will have paid for itself after 194 sessions. 2 times a week for 2 years?

Yeah seems reasonable to me, although I consider the environmental impact more than financial.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Well this is true, fortunately we have solar panels so the electrical costs will be minimal.

The big potential environmental damage is going to come from draining and re-filling the tub every 3 months, and to be honest, I don't know the impact of dumping 380 gallons of hot tub water.

Basically zero impact from draining into a sanitary sewer or spreading on a lawn.
