9 Better Ways to Spend Your Money Rather Than Buying Cigarettes


After working hard and sometimes sleeping late just to make ends meet, many folks find it difficult to spend their money reasonably. Instead, they run into debts by spending foolishly on drinks, cigarettes, and other irrelevant desires. In this article, we will detail better ways on how you can spend your hard-earned money.

Experiences

Spending your hard earned money on experiences will create exciting memories that will last a lifetime that you will cherish for years to come.  Experiences provide more joy and contentment in your life while material items have an expiry date. All the money you will save from buying expensive cigarettes can fund memorable experiences and provide you with passion and purpose.

Healthy Foods and Drinks

Instead of squandering your cash on cigarettes, why not go for healthy foods and drinks (yogurt and almond milk) that will nourish your body other than destroy it.

Hiring a Cleaner

Who doesn’t hate cleaning?  Imagine not having to do house work for a year? That’s exactly what you can afford when you quit cigarettes.  You can find a cleaner and have them routinely clean your house weekly for less than what it costs for a week’s supply of cigarettes.
