If one compares and contrasts the prices on even the east coast of the usa then you'll see huge differentials. Even between NYC and upstate NY, and between that Virginia and the Carolinas. The price differentials are from taxes, so called "sin taxes" and have nothing to with costs or distribution.

Switched to those for a couple years after Djarum Blacks (not the cigar tobacco ones) got outlawed, then Marlboro Reds got too rough for my aging body. Then onto silvers, and landed on golds until i gave into the gay vape train because I couldn't stand waking up hacking up phlegm every morning.
Good choice tho.

Silver has a higher volatility, along with being super useful industrially. Best thermal and electrical conductor my man. It'll always hold that absolute value.
I bought like 60 troy ounces when it was 14 bux an ounce. Probably a waste of money because I can't be bothered to sell it unless the value goes up absurdly but if you're a min-maxy dude it's worthwhile when the price is right. It'll never be worthless unless a new conductor is made that's better and cheaper to produce.

I'm with you. I'm not much of a smoker, but I greatly prefer the taste of a cigar. I can get decent house blends at my nearby shop for $2-4. Even if you're paying $8-12 for a mid-range cigar you're doing better than smoking a pack in my opinion.

my mother-in-law smoked for 35 years. 3 packs a day. she quit smoking 25 years ago.

she's now dying from COPD and emphysema.

She needs 4 litres of oxygen constantly and just walking 10 feet has her unable to catch her breath.

but that won't happen to you because you're immortal.

Dude
You said she smoked for 35 years and stopped for 25. 25+35=60.

When did she start smoking? Let’s assume 13. If she smoked for 35 years from that point, and stopped at 48, and went another 25 years not smoking (meaning she would be like 73 now) and she’s now dying of COPD (emphysema is basically a more archaic term for COPD) that’s right around the average lifespan for most adults in the US.

No one makes it out of here alive, but it sounds like she did pretty good, and you did a pretty shit job using your anecdote to make an argument against smoking. Now if she would’ve died violently of cancer in her mid to late 50s as many often do, that would probably be more effective

>> No.14789290

Even still, his point remains. Her quality of life is pretty awful compared to most her age. Smoking may not kill you, but it will make your last few years absolutely miserable.

>> No.14789300

>>14789285
Not him but you seem to have missed the point.
It's not about dying early; it's about dying slowly and painfully.
I used to work in pulmonary medicine and have watched a shitload of people die from lung cancer and COPD. It's not quick and easy and every single one of them was regretting every time they said "you gotta die of something" or "no one makes it out of here alive" because it turns out that while that is true, there are some ways to go that are worse than others.

>pretending dying is easy for anyone
You’re either going to die of a painful physical malady or a cognitive breakdown when the nerves in your brain finally commit suicide because you still haven’t died after 60 years
The only way to die quickly and painlessly is to die in battle or to die by your own hand, any other death being called “less painful” or “peaceful” is retard cope (I know it’s cope because none of you have ever died before)
