While the actual rate of lung cancer among smokers is fairly low, as in much less than 1/2, the rate is much higher than among those who don't smoke. There is no really accurate way to predict your "chances" if you smoke, as doctors still don't understand all of the factors that contribute to lung cancer.

At that rate its almost 99.9 percent they will contract lung cancer...if they stick to their current trend. It's best stop now.

Chances are 100% in 40 years. Quit now.
5 :
not incredibly high (17%) but if you have lung cancer, there is a 90% chance you are a smoker it is important to note that lung cancer is not the only illness that increases in probability from smoking, more than likely you will die of a smoke related heart attack before developing lung cancer. In general, smoking causes you to age faster.

I'm not really sure. My father smoked for 52 years and quit cold turkey. Later he was diagnosed with bladder cancer and when he passed it was caused by cancer in his lungs caused by asbestos--nothing to do with all his years of smoking cigarettes and he was so bad that a carton didn't last him two days.
