Title: How to pay yourself to $21 per hour to smoke

Suppose you smoke one pack per day.

365 packs divided by 10 = 37 cartons.

The average price per carton in my area is $45.

That is $1665 per year.

You will pay more if you buy them by the pack. But I'll use the carton price.

Now, if you make your own:

1 lb = $10 = mild pipe tobacco. You will get more than 2 cartons out of 1 lb, but I won't count the extra. Consider it a bonus.

A years supply @ 1 pack per day is 19 lbs = $190

A cartons worth of tubes = $4. A years supply of tubes = $148

TOTAL COST = $338

Total SAVINGS = $1327

It takes me 10 minutes of lackadaisical effort to make a pack. So a years worth in time is (10x365)/60 is 60 hours per year.

For each hour you make your own cigs, you pay yourself $21 per hour. MINIMUM.


Poster Comment:

And to those that say "save it all and quit smoking", I tell you to fuck off. Everyone has a vice. I'll give up my vice when you give up trying to molest little kids.

After smoking two packs a day for 30 years I now vape (electronic cigs). Been off cigs for 17 months. No tar, no carcinogens (as far as is known), no smell, no ashes, no yellowing of everything. I buy the liquid in bulk and mix it myself. Costs about the same for a year as rolling your own ($300).

If I ever decide to quit, I found a hypnotist's mp3s for quitting.

If it works, I'll post it.

The one thing I miss about not smoking is smelling fresh clean early morning air. Now I only get it occasionally, just often enough to make me remember.

But if I quit, I'll have to come up with another vice to replace it.

I'd recommend marijuana.

Yes. I haven't done that in years though.

Plus that might be a better barter item than tobacco.
