Anyone notice that a great majority of people in poverty have a cigarette hanging out of their mouth?

Have you calculated how much cigarettes cost a smoker anually?

You can say the same about drugs and alcohol. What a great investment these people make. Sorry but I don't feel sorry for your dumbasses.

Most of the hobos who panhandle for money around the Plaza in KC are smoking cigs while holding their little signs saying "Homeless and hungry, God bless." If you watch them long enough, they'll panhandle for a while, then go over and sit with their other hobo friends and drink beer through the day. Pretty rough...

All rough estimates but:

$5(pack of cigs) a day x 365days = $1825

$20(case of beer) a week x 52weeks = $1040

$35(bag of weed) a week x 52weeks = $1820

That comes to a total of $4685 annually, all bad habits that do nothing but harm. And for what? To be cool, hip, social?

Not worth it to me.

I would agree with most of that, but believe your beer estimate is low. I no longer drink like I used to, but when I was "poor" in America I would go through at least 3 or 4 cases of beer a week, so, I would say the $4685 annually is a very conservative estimate.

Wow. No judgement, but I drink probably way more than I should and probably more than most of my friends, and 3 or 4 cases of beer a week would be way more than I can drink. If I drink more than 6-7 beers in a night, I am officially tying one on. I bet I on average do a case a week and I am starting to cut back.

No judgement but you are a soft bitch when it comes to drinking. 6 or 7 beers is a warm up for the real drinking to commence.
