This is the saddest part of my old habit. I didn't feel any pressure to smoke, I knew it would cost a fair bit of money (~$4/pack), and that it wasn't healthy (didn't REALLY know about the cancer link).

Flat out - I started because it looked fun/interesting. I'm a bit ashamed to admit that TV and Print advertising worked exactly as intended on me.
