With so many new members (Welcome, all!) I thought I would re-post and excellent read on the cigar hobby and financial responsibility:

Good reminder for those of us who have been around a while, too!

Nice thread. Thanks.

Great post. And if I could all just remember that it'll always go on sale again. Always.

Definitely a great thread. I read it all last night. I've blown several hundred bucks in the past month or two and realize I need to slow it down a bit. I've probably got enough to last most of the year since I won't be smoking regularly until the snow thaws and I only have maybe 2-3 per week. I think having a set budget will help....plus another way I justify it is using my credit card points as credit to my account which helps offset the purchase.

Great read for those that are on a limited budget. I have spent way too much the last 2 months but it was all overtime earnings. All cigars were paid for with cash and I figure that I have a 2 year supply.
They are resting as we speak waiting for warmer weather to come out and play.

I never kept count of the number of sticks, until Jan 1st and decided to count. Only been smoking since 2013 and got up to 149. Not that I want to count them, but having an inventory makes me more aware of the cost.

And don't chase all of the limited edition monster/liga/pig crap. Waste of money
