Lung cancer is only one possibility. Heart attacks, strokes, emphysema, liver damage and other forms of cancer are real possibilities as well. True story, my father who never smoked a day in his life developed emphysema in old age strictly through second-hand exposure working in the bar business. Please note another serious disease you might develop: poverty. Smokes can cost you enough to pay for a vacation every year. Not to mention replacing clothing and bedding you might burn and paying for additional trips to the doctor. You might also burn down your home. In my neighborhood, several homes have burned within blocks of where I live because someone fell asleep with a lit cigarette. One forgetful young woman was cremated. Her father found her ashes after not hearing from her for a few days. It can cost you a job. Do you think the boss wants you dropping outside to smoke in this day of "right-sizing?" How about the girlfriend who thinks you stink, or the bar or restaurant that orders you outside. If you aren't already smoking, don't start.
