How many cancer sticks have you smoked in your lifetime?

Pack a day for 30 years now.....damn. 219000 of them. 10950 packs. Can't even remember how much they cost when I started in 83'.

In 83 probably about .75-.80 a pack depending on what state you lived in and where you bought them. Could probably buy a carton for about the same price of a pack now.

Pretty hard to estimate mine accurately in that I have quit for over a year twice and 5 years once and a number of shorter periods being on the patch, or e-cig but 150,000-250,000 more or less is pretty close. If I had invested all the money I have spent of Smokes, booze and so forth I could retire now and live out my days not as a rich man but middleclass.
