What Are Some Hobby Niches For Rich People?

67 replies
I've had enough of promoting products to poor people in desperate markets. Like blood from a stone getting money from these people.

I want to move into a hobby niche that caters for middle-class people with plenty of money to spend.

Golf comes to mind.

Any other ideas?

      Oh yes these niches indeed come to mind when thinking of hobby niches for the rich people. You can also google "hobby niches for rich people" or "rich people's hobbies" and see what you come up with? Give it a try and see it for yourself .

    Collections are always in demand. This is more than a hobby. People who collect stamps, coins, antique, etc love these products and of course, they can pay their price.

    I'm in a niche where it's both hobby & business traffic, prices range from low thousand too hundreds of thousands of dollars, mostly middle aged & older men. Traffic usually starts out working in the niche & figures out they can make more money starting their own business.

    So really the flow is: Offline job > Hobby > Self employed

    I would also say golf, but I would also try something like expensive gadgets..a lot of people are passionate about them, but certainly there are alternitives for the rich one..in terms of colections I would go with fancy cars or watches..a lot of rich people seem to be interested in collecting them..

      You do not want to target a market e.g. a hobby.

      You want to target a demographic e.g 25 year old men

      The time people tend to have disposable income is when they start working but have no big expenses e.g. house payments or children.

      Once the children come along, parents tend to spend their disposable income on them e.g. school fees, coaching

      Once the kids are grown up they can start spending money on themselves again or save for retirement.

      The people who have just started to work tend to spend money on fashion and fashion accessories, partying, traveling, gadgets, hobbies, sport etc

        Good point. I spent thousands of dollars in my early 20's on extreme sports (ie. bungy jumping, sky diving, etc.) after marriage and a family this became a thing of the past. Of course I didn't consider myself "rich" at that time, I was still really willing to spend every penny on what I wanted to do.

    Some excellent ideas, thanks folks. It'd have to be something I can also develop an interest in, and actually start doing myself at one point.

    I've been friends with a few incredibly rich people. One of them was a solar eclipse chaser. He traveled all over the world to go see solar eclipses.

    Another was a birder. He traveled all over the world trying to spot exotic birds.

    Another loved wildlife photography. He traveled all over the world trying to get awesome shots of animals in the wild.

    What's the theme here? All their hobbies required very expensive travel, but there was a goal for the travel. It wasn't travel for travel's sake, but travel with a purpose. So, I think if you can focus on hobby niches that require a lot travel, you'd be a rich-person magnet and could definitely rule out the desperate, tight-on-money people.

    Very good idea indeed. "Recession-proof" customers. Perhaps the more "upper-middle class", the better?

    Golf (men); shoes/fashion (women); expensive/unusual/rare/luxury travel (potentially very interesting niches but some serious payment difficulties to be aware of).

    I suspect that other, "more obvious" niches like jewellery (excuse UK spelling), watches, cars and so on are really fraught with payment-reliability difficulties.

    Telescopes and related paraphernalia, mentioned above, are an interesting niche.

      Hobby niches for rich people . . .

      Lots of good ideas in this thread, but you have to be careful how you use the information here. A case in point: "fishing" - a niche I know something about.

      "Fishing" per se is not a niche for the rich. In fact, many of the poorest, hungriest people pass the time away fishing because they have no job and no money.

      The key, with fishing or any other broad niche is to find a very targeted sub niche that "qualifies" rich folk.

      In the fishing niche, I would try to identify people interested in taking guided salmon and trout fishing adventures in Alaska, or Patagonia, or Russia. Such a week-long trip could cost upward of $10,000.

      You see, the key to me is to identify a hobby or activity that qualifies or limits the user participation to those with an abundance of discretionary income.

      Good luck to you,

      Steve

      Trouble with some of these physical item niches Alexa, is how do I start a list? :s . Suppose I could buy some of these telescope, expensive watch, car and travel magazines, see what they educate their readers about, and do the same via email?

    And another reason to target the higher paying items....it takes just as much time, effort and money to build and promote a site that sells high end products as it does one that sells low priced products.

    Starting a list is no different to any other niche. You offer them some information they like / want and offer them value, tips, resources and other information related to the niche. Buying some magazines would be a good idea to get information.

      I totally agree. I realize that I've only ever created desperate products for desperate niches in the past. 3 different niches, and it suddenly struck me that all of my customers are from a low socioeconomic background. It's gona be high ticket from here on in.

      I'll let you all know how it goes.

      The only reason I didn't make the switch months ago, is because I'm trying too hard to be persistent by focusing on one thing. It's very hard to strike the right balance between being persistent and being fluid enough to try new things out.

      Gona start reading up on golf , and maybe some of the other stuff suggested on this thread.

    Depends what type of 'rich' you are talking about.

    I've noticed that people who made themselves rich tend to be just like everyone else, whereas people who are born into wealth tend to have the expensive tastes that are traditionally associated with being rich.

      You're correct. My binary options affiliate manager suggest me to buy banner ads on golf sites to promote binary options offers. I had never tried it because of I hadn't enough money for that kind of media buying. May be someone will get a luck with it.

    Out of all these suggestions, which do you like? If you had money to spend, what would you spend it on? I think that's a great start.

    For me, I'd gravitate towards travel, wine, whiskey, gourmet food, and chocolate. Yes, chocolate is its own category. I may as well make some extra cash with topics that I love.

    I think you should consider the same! It makes it much easier to work on the venture when you have some passion invested in it.

      Not sure it's as easy as finding a high end niche.

      You'll have to know the niche to sell in it. I have family members that spend a lot of money on hockey/baseball/golf and travel - they can tell quickly which site owners know the games,equipment and venues - and which don't.

      If you go into a high end niche - prepare yourself with a lot of knowledge about that niche.

      If you go into a high end niche - prepare yourself with a lot of knowledge about that niche.
      That's one thing the affluent insist on. They want the very best, and they're willing to pay for it. But Lord help you if you do and then don't deliver...

      The rich people I've met tend to follow many of the same interests that the middle class does, but they do it on a whole different level.

      Since Steve B mentioned fishing, and I do know a thing or two about that, let's look at it as a case study.

      Lots of poor people fish to eat. Most of them fish from shore, docks, bridges, etc. Once in a while, they'll scratch up the money for a day on a party boat (where you charter a seat on the boat). I can tell you that not much gets thrown back unless it isn't legal to keep.

      Lots of middle class folks fish for both fun and food. They tend to have better equipment, and some may own a boat.

      Rich folks fish for sport, and they tend to either hire boats or own them and hire crew. A guide I knew back when I was putting out an outdoor newsletter used to write all the time about a client that hired him multiple times per month, at $400/six hour trip.

      Some of the really wealthy people I've met tend to own the very best, and pursue opportunities most only dream about. One thinks nothing of spending a couple of grand to gas up his $2 million sportfisherman and running to the Bahamas for a fishing tourney with a six-figure entry fee.

      Another hobby that can be pursued at multiple levels is horse racing. Not betting the ponies, owning the ponies. From a group pooling their money to buy a $5,000 claimer to rubbing shoulders with oil sheiks and bidding millions for yearlings that have yet to even set foot on a racecourse.

      The only reason some hobbies are known as "rich people's hobbies" is the cost of entry. Otherwise, most rich people are just people. They like what they like.

    I know a guy who wasnt "rich" but worked hard and played even harder, He made enough to support his family and still blow money on his hobby. Him and his son would Build and race sail boats (the look more like skis with sails) The boats and kits would cost 5-10k but they would travel to compete in races. not sure if there were prizes, but it may be something to look in

    PS If any has seen the movie Water World in the opening scene where the are racing to the docs, the boats sort of looked like that. Hard to explain lol but figured i would chime in

    You can try promoting Patek Phillipe watches with super complications e.g. Sky Moon Tourbillion. It will cost $1.75M with free shipping! Imagine how much commission you will get if you sell this. But seriously, do you think anyone, however rich they would buy this watch by adding to cart and then check out with a credit card?

    Do not get between a wombat and a chocolate biscuit; you will regret it dearly!
