  An applicable analogy is athletes and steroid use, they know what will happen but triumph and success in their 20's is worth it to them. You're right. They're trading their long term health for multi-million dollar contracts. Let's examine what you're doing: when smoking my product is of higher quality and my marks are higher I'm reading this as you are a student and smoking gives you higher grades. You're an idiot. Plain and simple. I don't say this lightly and have never insulted anyone on Hacker News - ever. But you are a colossal idiot that is just kidding yourself. It's one thing to trade years of life to make millions of dollars per year. I still think it's dumb, but I can see the attraction. But to do it for higher grades is just plain idiotic. And let's add that you are just rationalizing that it gives you higher grades. You have no proof that it does that. Really reconsider what you're doing to yourself.
