Dan, I understand your situation of loving this hobby and not having the cash to support it. I myself am a younger guy, 27 yoa, I just moved a few months ago and started a new job in the city of Dallas, and have a beautiful new 3 1/2 month old baby boy. I have a small humi that will hold around 25-30 smokes and it is fairly well stocked because I have ordered a few nice samplers and I do go to my local B&M on occasion. I can't afford to buy boxes and I can't afford to buy every cigar I would like to try, and I balance it out by only smoking usually 2 cigars a week, sometimes 3 if it's a REALLY good week! I started this little hobby about a year and a half ago. I am still fairly new to this forum as well but I can tell you there are some really great people on here that are very generous and are always willing to help out someone with advice or in some other way. But don't take advantage of that. I understand the thoughts running through everyones mind by reading your posts because honestly I was thinking the same thing, but if what all you have told us is true I wish you the best in this hobby and this forum. The only advise I have is to remember that this can be a pricey hobby and you have to live within your means.
i dont want to be seen as a person who takes advantage of people because thats not what im about.
Dan, I can't speak for everyone, but now that you've shared a bit more about yourself and your situation, I think it looks a lot less like you were trying to take advantage of people. Just stick around for a while, soak up the information, and return some favors when you get a chance and I'm sure all will be well.
