Okay, folks, it's been 40 years now that I've started to smoke cigarettes.

Currently, I smoke two packs a day. Which is a daily expense of 16.20 Swiss Francs. Unless I work more - then it's a bit more.

There are only few cigis left in my package. And once I've smoked them - I quit.

Well, at least that's my plan. A plan I had a couple of times before. This time, it is different. At the end of every month, I'll invest the money I would have spent for cigarettes in Bitcoins. Here's the wallet address:

Currently, this would be about two BTC a month - depending where the price goes. So let's see how much I'll have at the end of the year...

A very nice plan! I wish you the best of luck.

Post here if you feel like caving in so we can talk you out of it.

Goodluck in your plan.

stop smoking dude and you will be free and more healthy  :)

Promise to not take up shrooms (http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=shrooms) as a replacement.  ;) or :P

Stopping smoking and saving money - Good idea.
Investing the saved money into Bitcoin - Brilliant idea!!

 8) Promise made  8)

Last time I tried quit smoking, I ate carrots until I turned orange. So at least one thing I know I have to avoid...

Is this some new alt coin?

A stop-smoking-coin? Bad idea...

Pretty sure someone suggested they were going to do exactly this a while ago. I think any type of cutting something out of your life that you don't need and putting the savings into bitcoin is a good idea.

Great plan man, wish you all the best. I tried to quit smoking and invest the money in something more useful but i just can't. I don't have the motivation needed to do such a great step for me. I hope i will be able in the future.

Best of luck bud. If that works for you i'll ask some advices, and do the same!

Puff Poof!, before it even got started. So much for NoBaccy (http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=tobaccy)Coin (NBC).

I mean this would be the worst scenario for Bitcoin: If the tobacco industry would start their own coin. Like: "Son, never use cryptocurrencies, they are bad for your health"...

Oppose to the best scenario for Bitcoin: Son, best save it till you're married otherwise you'll go...

Could have sworn I posted in this thread,odd!

Wish you the best beating this habit,just remember the brain has made a strong connection. You will need to rewrite a new connection like walking.
Like the idea of stashing the money away too,if I did that with my habits I would be a rich man.

My first plan was to walk the dog more often - but she stays inside due to thundersorms. So I decided to watch some weird TV-shows when I want to smoke...

It would be really difficult to stop abruptly, after that pack-years you had. I suggest to use e-cigs for your oral fix, and nicotine patches for withdrawal episodes, if you're having them.

I've seen people doing this before, it's a really good idea, especially since you'd normally waste that money on cigarettes anyway, hope it works out for you.

Hey,

I really do like your idea.
I'm trying to stop smoking half-heatedly since quite a while, but never really managed. Unfortunately, money is not enough of a reason, because tobacco is quite cheap. Health would be a perfect reason, but that's where the personal devils come into play. ^^

Mind if I (try to) join you, soon?

Greets and best wishes!

Put the money invested towards a vaporizer ;)

Stop smoking. It's not good in your health.
Try something different hobby instead of smoking.

why da hell do u want to quit smoking ???
i mean just 60 years and restrictions ..huh

Over a month passed, and still no coin in the address.  :(

Come on OP!  You can do it!

Very good plan, i quit smoking like a year ago and i feel very good, that was poison. You guys will be amaze if you know how many tobacco they make from only one plant they are making tons of money and playing with our health.

Come on keep up with this plan i wish you good luck.  ;)

I'm trying hard. Really. But hell, too many people around me who are afraid that I quit - so they offer me cigis all the time... :-) Well, a new month is ahead...

And his wallet as well :D

E cigarettes with just water vapor are nice to use to gradually quit.

Lots of people, especially the young ones, think that e cigarettes are fine but its not true :/

...Really? I read that they were actually very safe.

After all, its just heated water.

Im not sure particulary about using only water vapor, but usually people use liquids in which there are lots of bad things (hard to explain in english as i'm not native speaker).

If it's just water, how is it really going to be bad for you? That makes no sense to me. :c

My cousin Cori uses them. She hasn't used real cigarettes since using that.

Just stop smoking and live a healthy life.
