A Turkish citizen in the northern state of Duzce gave his daughter the car of her dreams from money he saved after he quit smoking 14 years ago.

Tango Agar, 53, who was a heavy smoker in the past, made the decision to quit smoking after his cigarette hit his daughter's hand by "praise" by mistake one day 14 years ago when she was a 9-year-old girl.

From that day on, Ajar began saving the money he was spending to buy cigarettes, without informing his family of the matter, and opened a bank account in his daughter's name to collect the money.

In an interview with Anatolia, Agar said that he used to harm his family and people in his surroundings in the past without knowing it, due to his heavy smoking.

He added that he decided to quit smoking 14 years ago when he accidentally burned his daughter's hand with his cigarette, and has not taken it again since that day.

He added that he bought his daughter's first car when she obtained a driving certificate and began university studies 10 years after he quit smoking, as he had saved 45,000 Turkish liras at the time.

And he added that he continued to save money after that day, as he sold the old car and bought his daughter the car of her dreams after she graduated from university and became a teacher.

He explained that his daughter constantly warns her students against smoking and its many harmful effects, telling her story as an example.

In turn, the daughter Thana (23 years) expressed her great happiness because it was a way for her father to quit smoking, expressing her great surprise when she learned that he had bought her a car from the cigarette money savings.

She added that she feels very happy because she got the car of her dreams, but her greatest happiness lies in her father quitting smoking and maintaining his health and safety.
