How much money..

[kyleb]

How much money do you think cigar makers are making?

I understand they don't do it for the money, rather for the love of tobacco. But I'm curious..

Fuente, Padron, Garcia, do you think these people are set for the rest of their lifes?

I'm ignorant on the subject of what they pay their workers, how much overhead they have, ETC, so I have NO clue at all on what these people are making.

What do you all think?

I'm sure with the amount of markup that goes into each cigar, they don't worry about it anymore. And I'm sure they don't need to pay their workers very much outside of the US.

I think "How much do the manufacturers pay themselves" is more relevant. I'm sure it's a nice paying job, but the time that they spend traveling across the US has got to take it's toll.

Good question. I would think Pepin is set for the rest of his life. No telling what he gets to come in and develope a blend for some of these companys.

I'm sure they don't worry about paying the bills.
