More Reasons to Quit Smoking
How about the money issues? How much can you save if you are no longer a smoking? For someone who smokes only ten cigarettes daily the savings is two thousand dollars a year. Think what that adds up to over a lifetime and what better things you could do with that amount of money. You could buy a new wardrobe, go on a cruise or buy that chest freezer you always wanted. You could put it into a savings account and see how much the yearly amount you would spend smoking would add up to by the time you were ready to retire. Quitting smoking will put money back in your packet.

Quitting smoking will also make you feel less ostracized in public. At one time smoking was cool. If you smoked you fit in easier, you were part of the cool crowd and others respected you because of the cigarette you held in your hand. It is not like that anymore. No longer can you smoke anywhere you want, not even in restaurants you used to be able to, not in the place you work or the places you shop. When you want to smoke many people will frown at you and make it clear you need to move away from them until you are done. Stop smoking and you will become cool all over again. More people will respect you and want to spend time with you.
