Its sumthin to do. That basically sums it up for me. Its a hobby that I enjoy and gives me a reason to go to work everyday. I need something to spend my hard earned cash on that I enjoy and can look foward to. My other hobbies, building PCs - I can only justify doing maybe 1 - 2 major upgrades a year, Games - not much that has intrested me of late or Im waiting on picking up something new, my quad - its bought and paid for, got my gear, though Ill need tires in the spring, and thats pretty much all my hobbies. To me cigars fit perfect in between all of them, as if I dont spend the money I set aside each month to spend then it goes to cigars. That and there are soo many I have not been able to try yet.
