I have a little over 4 years without a drink. The pros far outweigh the cons:

Pros: Twice as much energy, turbo charged. Need less sleep. Remember things much better (I thought this was a weed thing but its definitely also drinking). Lots more money in the bank. Weight loss.

Cons: Lost a lot of friends when I quit. People who are alcoholics dont like getting drunk with the clean and sober. It just is that way and I dont know why, I don't judge them. You could say they weren’t “really” my friends, but they were, we laughed all night long at the bar so how is that such a bad thing?
