Quit smoking to save your life and save money

Smoking is terribly expensive. Much of the cost is in taxes. Taxes remain high and any excuse by politicians to raise the price of a pack of cigarettes through taxes inflates the price.

Smoking has increased in the Far East and in many Third World countries. That’s where the tobacco companies have been spending their money to add new smokers and users of other tobacco products. They are restricted from advertising in the United States, where they have to maintain the profile that they are against smoking and would love to see all smokers quit.

The fact is that a website that promotes better health for smokers is just another way to get the company name in front of the public. This is how they get around the advertising barrier. On one such site, they advise the public to fight cigarette taxes, prevent underage children from smoking, and last but not least give advice on how to quit smoking. I will not mention a particular site that puts the most important registered business name (company name) in front of the public.

In the East, they are raising taxes on tobacco products, imitating the United States. It is not being done to increase revenue. It is being done to reduce injuries and death.

Smoking cigarettes and the use of other tobacco products is a major health problem. People with lung cancer, heart disease, and other tobacco-related problems are less productive, and if they die, they are not productive at all. Additionally, the cost of health care skyrockets and becomes a national burden. I wouldn’t be surprised if a country tries to ban cigarette products, but like drug addiction, it will only make the products more expensive, which, as I said before, could reduce the number of deaths.

The cost of smoking is not just what you pay for a pack of cigarettes. Here are some other possible costs:

1. Higher Cost of Insurance: When you’re young, you don’t think about this. So you decide the kids are coming and you need insurance to protect your spouse. So bang! One of the first questions on the application is if you are a smoker. A, Yes, it brings a higher premium.

2. Dirty teeth and smelly clothes increase cleaning costs: Yes, just keep special toothpaste, breath mints are an extra cost, but you need to clean your clothes more often.

3. Lowest price and highest cost for a house you are selling: Didn’t think of this? Well, if I walk into a smoke-filled house, the first thing I want to do is get out of there. So do real estate buyers. You can try to remove the smell, but some people with noses like bloodhounds will run.

4. Lower wages: Yes, smokers are looked down upon in business. Most businesses do not allow smoking on the premises and some do not allow smoking at all. In other words, your insurance program doesn’t include you if you’re a smoker and they don’t want you around. In fact, people get fired because they smoke a lot because the company doesn’t want to pay their future medical costs.

I have read that smokers have lower wages and lower retirement benefits.

You should know that there are benefits that come as soon as you quit smoking. It’s not just medical benefits like lower blood pressure, increased lung capacity, and more energy. Quit smoking now by:

1. List any important reasons why you want to quit. This should be the most important reason.

2. Make a list of other, not-so-important reasons to quit.

3. Tell everyone in half acre of hell that he is going to quit smoking and that he hopes that you will give him your full support and attention until he succeeds.

4. Visit your doctor to encourage this process. Granted, the pharmacist might be less expensive, but a doctor could give him the boost he needs.

There are many tricks to quitting smoking, such as smoking one less cigarette each day. A person who consumes a pack a day would be tobacco free in less than a month.

Forget the reasons not to smoke. You usually gain weight when you quit smoking. good now! Eat less and you’ll be saving money at Two Ways.

I’m interested that you don’t smoke. Here’s a big HUG to help him on his way to better health and higher income or other resolutions like that new dress or fishing rod he saw in the Sunday paper.
