First of all, I am a 22 year old second-year law student who will be a full fledged lawyer in 2 years..... Now I am not claiming to be better than anyone else on this site, I really hate people who are on a superiority trip. But, I am heavily involved in the Construction industry, and am a VERY successful entrepreneur. On top of this, I am currently heavily involved in my legal training. (Both work and academic)

Please don't tell me that I am not sophisticated enough to be here, or imply it! My cigar collection rivals most cigar shops. And I feel that my cigar knowledge is respectible, not as good as some people here, but definitly respectible,

So, please remember that while you may have 8-tracks that are older than me, and your wardrobe may be over two-decades old, I am here to share my interest in cigars. NOT to compare who is older or more sophisticated.

While this post is not directed at everybody here, in fact most people on this site are VERY NICE AND INFORMATIVE, but please dont think that age corelates with wealth, success or knowledge of fine cigars. Anyway, post your opinion's on this topic. I would love to hear from both that yound and old out there.

Thanks for letting me get this off my chest, I think I will get one of my 1992 Montecristo #2's from my Elie Bleu humidor. Have a great smoke everyone!

I think you missed the boat,unless i'm wrong i believe it was all in fun,if you cant make fun of yourself ,how can you have any fun?

I can definitly make fun of myself, but I am sure that some of the younger guys here can back me up on this one..... I am not all that serious when it comes to 99.8% of this forum, they are great, informative guys (and Amanda), but there seems to be a subculture within the Cigar community which simply shuns us. Does anyone have any good examples?
