Whether to consume alcohol or not is an incredibly personal decision. It’s best if you evaluate your situation and decide if it’s providing any real benefits for the cost, which has scientifically been shown to have real costs on life expectancy. My very personal take: I have friends who like to socialize over drinks, and others who don’t. I try not keep much alcohol at home, but do love the culture of drinking at bars and having drinks with certain kinds of food. It is a personal risk profile that I am comfortable with.
