I figured I probably want to introduce myself before going about and starting to ask cigar related questions.
Currently a Soldier deployed, I just got into cigars about 2-3 months ago (time gets fuzzy). It's the third and longest obsession I've had since being out here.
Blew a wad of money on the mother site before finding out about cbid and then ended up blowing about 4 times as much money here over the last 6 weeks. Then decided to check out the forum.
After reading all the insight here though, I think I did this a$$ backwards. Probably would've been able to prevent the massive buying of low priced cigars. But, as I am open to new things, I like the fact that I am getting to try out a LOT of cigars right now. But still can't over the fact that with better guidance (a vet maybe?) I may have been able to save a lot more money during this deployment.
Have to admit that when I first started reading some of the stuff here, it seemed a little "elitest" but after reading some more, and getting to know the atmosphere of this place, it seems that it is one of the better forums around.
I'll keep the intro short and hopefully will get to know some of you better over time.

Be sure to sign up for the OpFtH. Great people doing great things for deployed soldiers.
Welcome to the madness. Be careful as it is contagious.
I too spent a small fortune on all kinds of cigars to try, it''s part of the process. 🤦
Stick around and you will learn.
