Allswell,
you r right.
Yes we loose health,money,time,prestige, faith.
In this thread I want to be specific for example what kind of health, prestige, how much money, how much time etc etc.
For me,I lost my memory power by almost all.My mind was like a tape recorder before...
I lost public and family faith which was charming before!
Spent 50% of my earning on alcohol

Ok then,

Can't calculate fully the lost opportunity cost other than to say alot of opportunities walked past my door when I was laying on the couch drunk watching something stupid on the tv. I can put an estimate on the wasted money. I'd drink at least a twelve pack of heinekin a day, everyday, for 10 years. $15*365*10 = $54750. Ouch! Pretty stupid huh? Quit date = 12/26/2010 - no more pouring good money down the drain. Time to start living life the way it's supposed to be lived.

Gosh, I bet I wasted 500 dollars a month on wine. Insane! Plus, I was always worried about destroying my liver.

Fennel, you spend money to buy worry and damage health!
I hope you will give up soon.Our strength is with you.
I spend 10x365=? 3600 in a year.
