You sound like a teenager. As an almost 20 year smoker, if you're "not addicted" then quit now.
Health benefits aside, it's a massive pain in the ass and a money pit. Everyone (rightfully) talks about getting lung cancer, but no one talks about how fucking annoying it is to have to stop what you're doing every 2 hours to feed your cravings.
I'm not spending too much money on it I smoke under a pack a day, I could quit whenever I want to right now but I'll just do it later.
As somehow who lost a close one to cancer, quit now and not later. The more you wait, the greater the chances you'll get cancer. Don't wait and regret it.
