you should look into his background before you start cheerleading for him. i would not follow his advice.

he is also a defense attorney and gets paid a lot more if you are in trouble.

Why don't you enlighten us calphi! I don't know about his background, but he is helping the fight for medical marijuana as much as anyone in the state as far as I can tell.

And being a defense attorney and helping people who are getting in trouble for growing and possessing a simple herb is nothing to slam the guy for. A person has to make a living, so I will reserve judgement until you present real facts. I highly doubt he is going to all this trouble just to screw us in the end, and he is setting himself up for lots of trouble campaigning for this cause, so I tend to think he is on our side.

Because anyone with a brain knows that this industry is going to boom and starting a dispensary can bring wealth to those who won't attain it with their current professions. I hate to question individual motives because people start dispensaries for different reasons. Either way, other markets have vanished and people are always searching for the easy path to financial success. Its a very luring industry right now.

All of us here are passionate about marijuana and we don't care to see outsiders exploiting the industry to get rich...but as long as people pick professions that will help them to achieve the American dream, you'll see more of this.

Those opening dispensaries might not yet understand that if they don't grow their own (which allows them to keep prices lower) they're not going to be as profitable.

Hell, I should go back to school for botany. I'm tired of working jobs I hate that make no difference in the world and help no one. Tired of being broke! Who's with me?

Your telling me. Im sitting here unemployed making no money, and my unemployment ran out 3-4 months ago. Im not asking for no sorrow here im stating that im a go getter and ive been out looking agressively for jobs.(no record, graduated) Then when you find one they want to pay me $8-10 an hour. LOL You can't live on your own and make this kind of money, you can but it very hard. I was working at a harbor freight making $8.hr moving heavy ass boxes, and my knee seriously could'nt handle it so i quit like a idiot. My point it i made 1200.00 a month working 40hr's a week. Im sorry but growing medical marijuana is my calling. When i get to colorado im going to be a caregiver/disp. who has free clones of 15-20 strains and from seed mothers. and all bud $10 a gram or 2 for $15. Grown in Roots organic 707 mix with organic nutes. And im going to pay my employee $15-20/hr. 40 hr weeks with Health ins, including dental vision. I am not trying to get rich here, just enjoy what i do everyday and not be broke. Average house, average car and a disp. That's all i want and i would be living my dream.

hey Cannamanibus, good luck with your endeavors! I wish I was in a position to grow but I live in an apartment. I was making $4,500 a month in the oil field before the economy tanked, and I can't find work anything that pays over $10 an hour. tough times.

Maybe I can eventually land a job in the medical marijuana industry. That would be nice.

I talked to corry about opening up something. I decided to go elsewhere when I did some digging and talking to people. Just google his name:

Medicinal pot suffers setback : Local News : The Rocky Mountain News

ProgressNow Colorado | Alan Franklin: All the Independence Institute's men

I have a daughter about the same age as the victim.

[Spacedet01]

Ive used Warren Edson with good success. He might be hard to get a hold of cause alot of dispensaries use him. But call and leave a message.

[MEDEDCANNABIS]

I have have business experience and quite a bit of product knowledge but no money or collateral. plus with the climate in this industry you dont know if they will come in and shut you down. they keep trying to find ways to stop us. maybe one day i can live the dream
