Congrats !

I stopped smoking and else for my ROlex.

Its always a good choice.

I suggest you read "Easy way to stop smoking" by Alen Carr, it helped me a lot, so did it for my girl friend and 2 other friends who quitted last year !

Congrats !!!

I might just be stereotyping here, but with a name like Ahmed I'm rather surprised you're drinking to begin with. Am I missing something?

I think that if you're spending $6000 a year drinking it is a fantastic idea to quit drinking. I don't know how your AD feels, but I'm sure your liver and other internal organs thank you!

Ahmed, I seriously congratulate you on quitting your alcohol, I am a non-drinker myself, (no real reason, just personal choice), but I know it must be incredibly difficult to kick such an addictive habbit and I think giving yourself the reward of a Rolex every year is fantastic! You deserve it.

Now... about smoking 40 cigarettes a day..... Mabe that should be your next health-harming habbit that you give up; buy yourself TWO Rolexes a year or maybe a TT/Gold instead of a SS.
