This is completely off topic, but that bull shit is what separates those that work shitty jobs they hate all their life, and those that retire early and don't have to rely on social security to take care of them when they are old. Trust me, I had the same attitude as you have and every day I get up for work and deal with the morons in 100 degree weather I wish I took school more seriously than I did.

As for when to start smoking, it's one of those things that everybody says you should start at 18 or 21 or whatever....but nobody does. Most probably start around 15 or so, and it's hard to know exactly how it will effect your life. I would say don't go too heavy on it until you're 23 or older, and pot, (or any drug/substance), should never be the center of your life. Focus on friends, family, your career, and let pot tag along but don't allow it to be the main thing in your life.
