Money wasted on drugs

Ever think about how much money you guys spend on your vices.
I was looking at old bank statements, and when I was drinking heavily I would spend over $1000 a month at the liquor store. I did this for years.
I pretty much drank a downpayment on a house in a year. Not even counting the other drugs.
It is a sad thought as I sit here with less than $1 in my bank. $2 in change. Four smokes and 2 months behind on rent.

What if drugs have helped you make money?

Rarely does consuming drugs help you make money.
Now if you were to resell it for profit.

Sometimes getting high is a good use of money, depending on the drug and context of it's usage and your situation in life etc

Even when I was selling, the more I made the more I did and the more I gave away free to friends. Pretty much once I broke even, the bag became a community bag.
But I'm sure many people who sell have better business sense than me.

Yeah I've thought about it, it's actually one of the reasons I decided to quit smoking weed. I was paying 110 a quarter and going through an oz every month. That wasn't all I was buying from him, just that was guaranteed every month.
Should have seen the look of disappointment on my dealer's face when I told him I had to quit.. I wouldn't be surprised to find out I was his best customer. I doubt he was doing much big time dealing given the car he drove..

after almost 27 years im finally learning how to save money and not blow it all on drugs. it takes lots of effort tho.

Let us be friends.
and of course he will be upset to lose a customer paying 110/7g. that is insane, where do you live?
I last payed 65 for 7g of powerplant kush., and even that I thought was insane.
and im 26, and not sure if Ive learned that lesson or not. I know it, but will I follow it?

maybe for some people an early addiction is necessary, in that it might help to prevent a future one. a lesson in self-control?

I live in TX, I coulda found it a bit cheaper, but the one who I could get it from for cheaper was far less dependable.. I'd call and say I need something and then he'd say he'd be here in an hour and then I wouldn't hear from him until the next day or something.
Those two are the only ones I've ever found to have anything other than Mexican brick. Was worth the price to me. I was paying a little extra for a dependable dealer who was here within 20 mins of my call.
As far as I know 90-110 for a 1/4 is pretty standard pricing for top shelf shit here.. Anyone who says they can do better has never been able to prove it to me.

Shit I probably spent 20 grand on heroin in the year and a half I was using it.
Dont even get me started on weed,psychs, alcohol, etc.
Ive probably spent well over 100k in 8 years.

Canada is pretty decent, lots of good cheap drugs. Ket, coke, m, H, speed. All cheaper and relatively pure. Booze is so pricey though. 35$ here for the cheapest 40oz of hard liquor.
and there is some smokin canadian chicks man.

Dope has gotten me through when I didn't have money but money never got me through when I didn't have dope.
I can't remember who said that or how it was said exactly but it's pretty brilliant in a way. Basically, you can be happy without money but with only money all you've got is green colored toilet paper.
