Are You Satisfied with the Number of Cigars in Your Inventory?

[Nature]

Nearly everyone seems to be seeking out more cigars to add to their collection and there seems to be a wide variation in the number of cigars we have in our inventories. Some may get to a point where they have enough.

Considering your resources like storage space or budget, where are you at on the satisfaction scale?

Some may get to a point where they have enough.

As far as I can tell, the only clinically proven side effect of nicotine is having that word erased from your lexicon.



In all seriousness, the generosity of the folks on here have allowed me to smoke a nice cigar far more frequently than my budget would have normally allowed (and a far greater variety) so for that I am thankful, and very satisfied

You can never really have too many (unless you're going without food to buy them). Although you can have enough to see you out for a good while. I rarely have more than about 30 sticks on hand at any given time (not counting cigarillos) which is enough for a few months for me. What I fear is the constant increases in taxes, annoyance laws and other general things that make getting cigars harder and harder. If I could stock up enough to last me a lot longer I would, but the budget doesn't allow for that.

A couple months ago I would of chosen the "too many," but now that summer is here and I am back in cigar smoking mode...I could always use a few more

[Horseshoe]

I am at capacity and I need to get my numbers down. Stupid limited releases! I am trying to thin the herd here and there. Once I get this move completed, I might pull everything out and do an inventory. I know I have around 450 sticks and I want to get under 400. Every time I get close, some wise guys send me sticks, and then they laugh and point fingers. Mom, I am getting bullied, but then she laughs at me and tells me to suck it up!

In all seriousness, I have more than enough. I am about 9-10 months in the hobby, and the generosity of the people in the cigar world is mind blowing! Some of my collection is good, some is meh. When I was just starting I was buying samplers galore, so I have a ton of singles. I am just now starting to get to the point of figuring out what I like, so I will start liquidating stuff. If it weren't for having bad influences in my life like @DogRockets and @04EDGE40 , I would probably only have like 100 sticks....

Lastly, I only buy what I have money for. I put $10-20 in an envelope each week, and it goes to cigars or other hobbies. If I want to buy something larger, I sell what I have multiples of to fund my next purchase. I have never bought cigars that I didn't have $ to back. I have just as much fun shopping as I do smoking.

oh and I also blame the people of the cigar forums. Silly people sell stuff that I can't live without. I don't have a problem, I can stop when I want... Lol I'm not addicted, you are!

A while back I commissioned my best friend to build me a custom humidor. It holds several hundred and as long as it is 50% full, or greater, I'm a happy man.

[Emperor Zurg]

I could use a few more although I haven't bought one in months. Only because I fear the overbearing government will eventually put the kabash on Internet sales.

Hard to tell for sure but I probably have more cigars than I will ever smoke right now.

[Old Smokey]

At my current rate of smoking cigars I have about a 3 year supply of approx. 400 cigars. All of my storage is full and I really don't want to add more storage. I am content.

@Horseshoe , excellent advice.......if only I could follow it bwaahaahaa. You are spot on....A BUDGET, will ultimately provide more enjoyment.
