It seems like the reason for your question is that you’re curious about the differences between bouldering and other kinds of rock climbing, and that you want me to help you clarify them. Is that right?

I don't want to have to commit to a lot of time and money to start with. Is bouldering easy to start compared to lead climbing?

If I’m understanding you correctly, you want a distinction between a “soft” and a “hard” approach to bouldering and rock climbing in general.  The “soft” approach involves less commitment and more flexibility, so that you can stop climbing whenever you want.  You can’t commit to a fixed time or place with bouldering, since there are many different places you can go to boulder.  Is that right?
