My best acquaintance John and I grew up together in CA, however after High School, I decided to go to MI for university… I decided to learn agriculture and mechanical engineering; John went to Berkeley in San Francisco, he earned a degree in engineering.
John was always a stoner in middle school and he was a stoner in university as well.
I visited the guy a couple of times and the people I was with and I smoked marijuana together the whole time I was hanging out at Berkeley. It was nice to go to San Francisco for a number of reasons, and the eveninglife, bars, and clubs were way better than any place I had in the midwest. The guy smoked more marijuana than anybody else that I knew. He still managed to acquire a degree from the University and he graduated with honors. He got a job working for a sizable contractor that handles offshore drilling in environmentally friendly ways. The guy is a sizablely successful businessman and he is still a stoner. The guy enjoys marijuana so much that he is planning to open a dispensary next year. He has three million set aside for the project and he provided myself and others a piece of the investment opportunity. I would be deranged to say no, however that might mean moving to San Francisco for a couple of years. I have a girlfriend here and she does not want to leave the midwest. I fear that our relationship will end if I make the decision to go to San Francisco to open the dispensary. It’s a lot of pressure to make the right decision after 6 months of dating.
