I do vape. The long-term reusable vapes are a LOT more expensive than the disposable ones. My current setup cost 100 USD before batteries or coils.
No, I mean long-term as in costs. Over a year or two, won't you be saving money?
If you really want long term savings... how about ditch your nicotine habit? That's what - $1,500 per year? $100,000 over your lifetime?
Oh, and medical bills on top of that. Hard to estimate that, but it could be more.
I can think of something better to spend $100,000 on. Slot machines at a Casino would be a better option for example.
That's absolutely flat out wrong and honestly concerning.
For a start nicotine addiction (vaping) has not been proven to have any long term health strain on the medical system. To say having a gambling problem is better is just crazy.
You realise the difference between nicotine addiction and gambling addiction right?
