I find pot smokers/people alike to sometimes be unwise with their money spending, but I think its more of a parenting flaw. Too many people are missing Herbs messages, I wish Bob Marley was still alive to help change that. I find a lot of the codes, unwritten rules/ethics, and culture is being wasted on these younger generations who are joining our community with no helping hand from older smokers.
Personally, I find I have times of low income, then times of high income. Herb is a great seller if you need cash. But in the end I think herb gets you through times with no money better then money getting you through times with no Herb. I know that I can be happy with very little, and I dont mind using my hands to produce my own crops (legal and illegal). And I have met some stoners with a similar attitude. For some people Herb seems to show them how to enjoy life with less, that doesnt mean their poor (implying to some degree unhappiness). It just means they live for other reasons. I hope I'm expressing myself in a manner that makes sense, I tend to not articulate clearly my thoughts.

I doubt you the only person w/ a job...
They might not just have the cake to do a decent set-up. They want to start so fast before they have all the parameter's ready. Anxious is why they set-up's are half-ass.
It's not yours or my fault they have no $. if you grow you should have a pot to piss in lol.

i was thinking this a few days ago in a thread about how much you smoke a day.
i've been dry for weeks! and enjoying it because when mine are done, even if it's poor it will seem like the best ever.
they seem to spend what money they do have on weed then sit in front of their computers all day until they get some more.
not saying this about EVERYONE i must stress that point.
but damn, a lot of people seem to do a lot of nothing.....
if i didn't work/do things i would go insane. if i watch tv for more than a hour (haven't done in ages) i'll get annoyed because i'm wasting my time.
don't you want the most from life people?

Why does it matter if stoners are poor or rich? I don't have a lot of money but my oldest brother is wealthy. i fail to see a connection between weed and cash unless your a dealer lol. Peace

Im going to go out on a limb here and say that maybe a lot of growers are of the college age. I know that for myself, i have to pay for my apartment, college, car, food, etc.. so when it comes to having the "best" grow room its not a possibility. For me i like to make things, so i suppose i could have gotten online and found a $2,000.00 grow set up, but i chose to go to home depot and build my set up. it seems a lot more rewarding when you get that oh so sticky sweet bud that gets you 1000x more times stoned then your dealers "best fire that he got so stoned on". best of all you didn't have to spend 60 an 8th on it.

well off smokers are some of the most paranoid people i have ever met.... because like you say, there is alot to lose... i havent met too many btw.... mostly, i would imagine, either nobody at all knows cause they grow their own; or just their dealer knows....

There shouldn't be a connection between weed and cash.
But I see a trend that has begun long before I started noticing it and it
looks like it's only going to get worse.
I've been smoking weed for over 20 years, but that never slowed down
my motivation to excell in life......But that's just me.
I very rarely run into anyone who smokes/grows who has a decent job.
Why is this?
Is there a connection between people who smoke weed and not caring if they excell in life?
This is what gives marijuana a bad rap. If there were more succesful
people out there who smoke weed, Then just maybe people would feel
differently towards marijuana.

/walloftext I find through your posts i am like minded with you and i agree. im medical and it helps me live and do daily tasks, i am quite smart but because of me medical marijuana usage people discriminate me quite alot especially when people believe that one j is like 5 cigs. most teens who smoke today smoke because its cool and i know people in the College Scene (or w.e) who smoke to purely get fucked up they binge drink on a DAILY basis and they "don't care" when it comes to knowledge schools are more about fashion and making as many "friends" as possible rather than gaining knowledge which leads me to the fact that these people will be our country soon enough and they dont care about history sciences or even english lit. im not out making gazillions because im not about that, but if i wanted to i sure could im high and im rambling but yeah people have a stereotype in their head...teens believe pot propaganda use as scapegoat, regarding people starting half assed grows its not because theyre nessicarily poor but they dont believe that the 3k hydro set-up in your attic is worth it.....its my hobby. Famous people also smoke but do you think theyd be famous for very long if the DEA controlled public knew? /walloftext
