You can forget the expensive anti-aging treatments and products, because quitting smoking will save your looks, your health, and your wallet. Aside from the toll smoking takes on your quality of life, the monetary cost is equally monumental. According to WalletHub there are 66 million smokers in the US alone, and between them, they spend $326 billion yearly on tobacco products and the issues they cause, including close to $170 billion in direct healthcare costs and upwards of $156 billion of lost productivity due to premature death and exposure to secondhand smoke. Broken down, the average smoker spends $2,452,735 on cigarettes and tobacco-related health issues in a lifetime.
Stop while you’re ahead and save millions of dollars and potentially your life and those of your loved ones surrounding you.
