Of what I do spend, less than 10% goes to anything "new"...primarily parts, paint and glue. Most everything I buy is older, used equipment that doesn't get a second look at most trains shows. My spending policies started out as a necessity originally, but has since become a sub hobby of sorts, leading me to seek out that which is cheap or even free as a sport of its own.
And I'll bet that "Model railroading is fun" just as much for you as for one who spends thousands. The "used" table is my first stop at my LHSs.
