In my city, a cigarette is about $0.65. if you smoked one a minute, and then treated cigarettes like a 40 hour a week job, it would cost $81,120 a year to smoke, but take 87,300 minutes off of your student loan per year. I think we can all see the value here.
Something, something five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes…
Yeah, good luck getting that out of your head, theater nerd.

I don’t get how people can afford to smoke. It’s so expensive.

It’s really not. If you smoke half a pack a day, it can be cheaper than a starbucks coffee or craft beer. I’m not advocating for it, but as a former pack a day smoker, my budget didn’t really change after I stopped smoking. Honestly, it used to be more expensive, it feels like. Now everything is crazy expensive.

It’s a pretty nasty habit to kick. It becomes a bit like the metaphor of the boiling frog. Certainly in that your consumption gradually increases.
