Non smoker to smoker.

The Highway Man

Brit Pack 2I/C
Lady: Do you smoke?
Man: Yes
Lady: How many packs a day?
Man: 3 packs
Lady: How much per pack
Man: £10.00
Lady: And how long have you been smoking?
Man: 15 years
Lady: So 1 pack cost £10.00 and you have 3 packs a day which puts your spending each month at £900. In one year, it would be £10,800 correct?
Man: Correct
Lady: If in 1 year you spend £10,800 not accounting for inflation, the past 15 years puts your spending at £162,000 correct?
Man: Correct
Lady: Do you know that if you hadn't smoked, that money could have been put in a step-up interest savings account and after accounting for compound interest for the past 15 years, you could have now bought a Ferrari?
Man: Do you smoke?
Lady: No
Man: Where's your f*&%ing Ferrari then?

I smoked for most of my career, just as I got enough rank to have my own office the Army wouldn't let us smoke indoors, I couldn't smoke in my own office!
I quit in Nov '88 and I don't think a day goes by when I don't want to light up.
 
Good one. I been smoking five years and now that 25 smokes costs $22 bucks it sure is starting to hurt the pocket.
Anyway quitting slowly so its alright.
 
So kids, the advice from great uncle Highway Man is to smoke because you'll never buy a Ferrari either way. ;)
 
I'll always remember a married bloke in the RAF saying "I never pay for sex!"

I asked, "How much do you give your missus on pay day?"

He shut up.
