I'm seriously considering stocking up on pre-ban, higher nicotine content cigs to resell at a later date for profit.  And I don't even smoke!

eta: Anyone know of any good playgrounds or schools with high traffic?

Don't they get stale?

Consider it a reading comprehension exercise.  

Circle the statement made in jest.

Won't lower nicotine cigarettes mean smokers will smoke twice as much to get the same buzz?

This is helping them how?

Smokers who are seriously craving for a smoke wouldn't care if they were stale or not.

Johnny smoker gets that same old nicotine feeling without having to spend all day sucking down a pack of cigarettes and turning into tracheotomy man.

Really, the objective is more about my own income tho.

Dude, $4.80 a pack best price for basics in Indiana. Switch to pot man, you will save in the long run. When I smoked pot (in moderation) it was cheaper then. That was at 2.50 for real cowboy killers. Now I just punish my liver, but my lungs are healthy again. Almost time to switch again!

Forget stocking up on pre-ban smokes, roll your own.

Grow some tobacco and get one of them home rolling machings. It's kind of like making reloads if you use the prefab tubes.

If they are lower nicotine, doesn't he have to suck down MORE to get the same feeling?

Growing good tobacco for profit is not economical on a small scale.  It's pretty labor intensive and takes alot of skill.

I don't want to smoke.  I want to make some easy money.

The new ones will be lower nicotine.  Those will be the ones at the store.

The ones he could get from me will be the ones that are sold now but for not too much longer.  Pre-lower nicotine mandate.

Didn't you get the memo?  Tobacco is moving to regulation by the FDA.

I've heard that  Tobacco is being turned over to the FDA, so there won't be any ATF any more.

I've never smoked a cigarette in my life... But I like the sound of making money of pre-bans.

Let's see...

Philip Morris International, Inc. (PM)
Last $42.89, Down -0.63; -1.45%, with 10,373,623 shares exchanged today.

For every share of PM you have by the Ex-Date* of June 20, you will receive 54¢ in dividends.

Does that answer your Question?




*The Ex-Date, or Ex-Dividend Date, is the first day that a stock trades without entitlement to the next dividend. The ex-date is two trading days prior the record date.
