If you won the lottery and vaping

[DeAnna2112]

How would it change your vaping experience? would you start a support group to spread the word and provide free vaping gear to get newbies on a good foot? would you simply just hand out free vaping gear to every smoker you meet? would you start a cause that supports vaping and furthers it's agenda in light of the political arena? would you just give a large donation to someone like CASAA..sorry hope i got that right in spelling. Would you make a large donation to this forum to support it? Would you contribute to vaping researchers? What would you do if you suddenly won the lottery as a vaper and how would YOU want to make a contribution to vaping?

 

[DeAnna2112]

I would make a very large contribution to this forum i can say that right off. I would not make a contribution to CASAA because i do not like them or their way of doing things. I would start a local support group with free gear for all who are interested. I would support vaping researchers. I would start a nation wide group to further push for vaping support that would be well heard by the powers that be.. it would be massive because i would have the money to reach high places and support by the vaping community to fuel it. I will be that person that carries the best vaping gear out there to hand out to those i encounter in public who smoke, just so they can know there is something better to get them off of the cigs. DR.K and Dr. F would be well funded

I would still advocate for vaping but with that kind of money I would be able to go right to the top. Really need more time to contemplate what and how I would do it to answer more in depth.

I would open up a vape shop in the same vicinity as the one I dislike for many reasons and my shop will be selling its products for the same price it costed me. If you buy a mod the batteries are free, if you buy a tank you get free coils for a year. All of this and much much more

It would be hard to think logically when I would win the lottery. The most logical thing I would do would be to hire a financial advisor immediately.

I can't agree more than 100%

What would you do if you suddenly won the lottery as a vaper and how would YOU want to make a contribution to vaping?

I would buy a ton of vape stuff every week to assure those manufacturers had enough money to allow everyone there to have guaranteed employment.

 

[EIHYPI]

One thing I'd surely have on my list is to make a very large effort to reach out to all the smokers out there and do what I can to help convert them to being a vaper. I think that the money I win will definitely be a big enabler for me to carry out such a task. There's a bunch of smokers out there that just never had the opportunity to experience a vape the way its best for them.

I would reopen Provapes.

 

[SteveS45]

I wonder if there is anything in the Deeming Regs about a free Testing/Tasting bar on private property? Need signs that say NO SMOKING but Vaping Always allowed

I would finance 30 second TV ads, run round the clock, telling the truth about vaping and dispelling the myths put out over the last few years.

 

[Hightech Redneck]

I would go to the actually good vape shops near me and buy em out. We need to support the good ones!
Then take that equipment out and donate that to the smokers. Maybe in front of one of the not so good shops lol.
I would try to fund an organization that truly listens to vapers and try to organize all the different groups so that everyone is on the same page.
Get a true blacklist for the manufacturers who are in violation of what the fda and Congress are saying is bad about vaping so it can be fixed and they have MUCH less ammunition against us.

Better yet a Vaping Channel on Cable! I like your idea!

+2 on reopening provape. I'm more interested in bringing jobs to my area and doing something that would be a boon to our local economy, and so reopening provape would do that, plus it would help the vaping community.

Other than that, I wouldn't do anything differently than I do today, as I already give vaping gear to smokers who are in need, and help every one I can within my means to do so.

I would probably become a supporting member of this site though. That is something I don't currently do.

Oh wow didn't think about that..that would be awesome!!

 

[DeAnna2112]

If i won this forum or dr k or dr f would never worry about funding or carrying on this forum!!

Isn't anyone going to be honest and say they would change their "vaping experience" by vaping in their new Porsche while wearing their new Rolex while driving to their new yacht to have your new crew take you to your newly purchased private island?

That and a financial adviser for me.

Not being flippant, but I wouldn't waste a ton of my own $$$ on vaping education unless I had a vested business interest. I'm don't see Smok, Five Pawns, Suicide Bunny, Mountain Oak, Fasttech and the other big manufacturers/resellers/distributors donating hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars to the cause.

I would PIF a crap ton of gear and juice though.

laughing so hard right now

I think I would buy a few 55 gal drums of glacial nic and store it in a freezer so in case of Govermentus Interruptus I could hire a chemist to safely mix it down to 100mg/ml or something and give it out to all my vaping buddies. Oh, and I might buy a new mod. Or two.

Well, to be honest, the first thing I would do is Do Nothing and Tell No one of my plans. I would really hope to remain anonymous, but I don't quite understand how the Lottery Works as I don't use it, but it would be nice if everyone and their Dog didn't ask me for money all at once, and I could remain anonymous. I would pay off my mortgage and any other debt I had laying around. I would then ensure that I spent a lot of time planning investments that would ensure that I didn't have to worry financially until my death. I would also ensure that a trust fund were set up for my kiddo and some of my nieces and nephews, and then after that my husband and I would probably sit down and decide where our financial contributions and donations were going to go, vaping would probably be among them, but I'd want to do more research into a lot of things besides that.

I would go about that in as sane and rational a manner as I could, I think, and all I can say is that my own personal Creator has always provided me with everything I *need* and a lot of what I *want* so I'm not sure I'd go nuts on vaping equipment, shoes, or anything else, "just because." I like to think I'd approach it that way, but God only knows what would happen, a lot of lottery folks say the five years after winning were among some of the worst of their life. It would be a huge adjustment, and my first thought would be how to handle that safely and rationally, and I'm okay with not winning at all, because from what I've heard it ain't all sunshine and roses when you do. It's easy to say "OH, I would OF COURSE make sure VAPEVERYWHERE was a thing and all smokers would be provided with free Provaris and Kabukis and whatever," but actually IMPLEMENTING that? That's a lot of work, right there, and a lot of things to figure out. That's my REALISTIC answer, and if it ever happens, since the Husband does occasionally buy a ticket (he has been hit by lightning before, though) I hope none a y'all find out about it, as honestly, I'd probably want to go hide for a while and gibber.
