Do what feels right for you, i'm not going to tell you to smoke more or less, i'm just sharing what i've done and how i've felt about it now.

At the time when your throwing away 80 bucks on a q or whatever, it doesn't mean anything your young, but when you start getting older you realise just how much you spent and where that money could really have gone, 80,000 usd in 10 years, what could you do with that?

never heard it put like that tahoe. I do not beleive that weed controls me at all. My father and I recently visited my dying grandfather in arizona. I was temted to bring some weed out there with me and find some when I was out there, but I didn't. I knew that we were out there for my grandfather and didnt want to let anything get in the way.

very cool...and good for you. the point is to ask yourself the question....and then be honest with yourself with the answer. to the homewife that spend all of her time watching soapoperas all day, and neglects taking proper care of her children, she has a problem. if you're spending money on trading cards, and allowing for adequate time for your homework or not providing sufficient nutirtion for you to be effective at school or your job...you've got a problem. its just a different way of looking at stuff, and being able to "objectively" asess your own situation.

I have been a toker for more than thirty years...and I have certainly had times in that period that I would now consider a problem, though at the time I surely wouldn't have been able to see it.

Continued good karma your way! :blsmoke:

yea I mean I work at least 40 hours a week most of the time 60 hours. Weed doesn't keep me out of college I simply have no desire to go. I am a business man and Want my own full blown LEGIT business one day. One of the thousands here in America is its much easier for someone to make money illegally then legally. I do not consider my business wrong, I see it as getting patients there medicine.

as I have said in other posts...other threads....find your passion and run with it. whatever that is. my dad used to say...as long as your mistakes didn't kill you or land u in jail...then just try not to make the same one twice. I don't have to agree with your choice of business pursuit. thats your choice, and with that choice you are knowingly accepting the potential consequences that come along with that choice. my thoughts are around trying to live a happy life, and for that, you need to find a passion and chase it like no tomorrow....good luck!:blsmoke:

yeah i have a different perspective than most right now on toking. i have smoled since i was 15. i have smoked everyday since i was 18 and i am now 30. my granmother was low income and lived on very minimal money. she saved for years to leave me a modest 30 thousand dollars. when i was 18 i thought i knew everything. smoking and friends were my world. of course i was the one who worked and had money in my savings. and out of my whole group of friends who do you think had weed to catch everyone a buzz? ding ding ding.....me. of course they would smoke their shit up and always rely on me to catch them one, me being the kind, sharing person i am. do you think they remembered to ever repay me when times got rough, hell no. i did come out of it with some true friends though. i wasted all my money on bullshit when i could have saved it to buy a house. oh well that is life for you. i recently had to quit smoking for the most part. i have smoked half of my life like a rock star. but due to my new job i want to take care of my wife and family. my wife still smokes every day til all her weed is gone so we argue about the amount of money she spends on it. i have a perspective from both sides. although i do smoke a little here or there...... and i do mean little haha. 2 hits gets me stoned, i know i am a puss now.

Good perspective Tahoe. Yes first you have to understand whether or not it is a problem to you or not. Nongreenthumb and masta and tahoe have clearly defined some probs that can arise with your decisions.
Its not as warm and fuzzy as you may be picturing it to be.

Good luck buddy:mrgreen::blsmoke:

I dunno...this is a tough place to give advice or opinion. We don't really know the entire situation. I don't disagree with the aspect of under his roof, his rules. I think that's pretty standard. My assessment and interpretation of what you have said so far includes the following:

1. blowing a wad at anybody never solves anything except makes you feel a little better (very short term) because it is an expression of having some control in a situation where the control actually lives elsewhere. I say its short term cuz in time, the deterioration of the relationship, the immediate disrespect and painful attacks by both parties only further alienates each other and that's not a happy place to be.

2.blowing a wad (either his or yours) is usually the expression of a lot of other emotions often totally unrealted to the specific incidence at hand.

3. As has been said above - the moment anything starts to control you and not you it, its a problem. if there are behaviours and or circumstances that are negative for you as a result of your actions (watching TV or picking your nose or chewing your fingernails or smoking or watching pron, or smelling girls underwear...or whatever...), then there is a problem, whether you want to accept that or not. If what you are doing is having a bengative influence on you to have the life that you want...then its a problem. and if you want a different life then you have to change what you are doing.

A couple of quotes for you to ponder:

Sometimes we are forced in a direction we must go.....

you can't change anything by digging a deeper hole in the same place.

good luck and all the best wishes....I hope things can work out in a good way for you.:blsmoke:

I feel ya 100% man. I am a business man too. I am going to college b/c I always felt like "that's what I'm supposed to do". After a lot of soul searching I decided I'm dropping out. I sold weed for two years but had to quit b/c I'm on probation. I get off in March and I'm going back at it 110%. It's my dream to own a legit business too, maybe a nightclub or car dealership. Which is why I'm dropping out and concentrating 100% on growing and selling. Hopefully, I'll have enough within a year or two to go legit. You sound a lot like me. People like us can't work for somebody our whole lifes and make them rich and be happy doing it. People need to work for us and make us rich. Go for your dreams, bro. Just don't get caught.
P.S. I know this ain't what the threads about, but I've never seen a post that describes the way I feel more than this:mrgreen:

Ok so fair enough, you want weed to provide you with some extra income to set yourself up.

So by smoking your own, you are in fact still buying it at full price, your just paying someone else for you to have it.

Say you grow 8 ounces and you keep 2 for yourself.

mr a buys 2 mr b buys 2 and mr c buys 2,

Mr d can't buy any because that is yours, so effectively you have paid mr d the full price for you to smoke it.

Your right. That's why rule #1 of selling is don't get high off your own supply. I've yet to meet someone who could follow this rule, though.

I myself do not smoke that much when im growing strong/selling strong. theres just not any time for me to sit down and smoke. Growing is what I love doing and so is selling. I only sell because I have to get the money somehow. I cannot afford to live and everything on my own otherwise. And to those people saying just work more, or get a better job. I'm only 18 and right now im making 15 an hour. Thats pretty good for my age I think. I do not have the luxery of my parents paying for my school or something like these little rich pricks you see running around blowing there dads for there tight wad money. So I have to work, sell, grow, and live my life like it is right now. I'm not dissapointed with it but like you I to have been caught and I am on probation. I still sell a little here and there but not much. I am going to be on house arrest not for the fact that I have broken a peace order while on probation TWICE, and I also assaulted the man my mother has been cheating on my father with.

I intended to kill him soon since he's such a pussy's that he calls the police and fucks my life up even more. I'm 18 hes 50 something. Fight back you pussy bitch don't call the police.

I just came in from smoking a much needed blunt of good shit...

I went downstairs to eat my mexican food I then made, This has been my 3rd time smoking today because its Thanksgiving and im not really doing much.

I only normally smoke twice a day after I get off work.

I had to move back into my parents house because of my jaw getting broken...

So when I came in he starts yelling at me about how I have a serious Problem and I need to cut it out and I'm ruining my life.

I do not drink, smoke tobacco (except vary occasionally cigars), or any other type of drug including drinking coffee.

So while hes yelling at me about my "problems" I said something like problems lets not get on that subject.

And he continues to question and I said please dont get me started im trying to sit here and relax (so he keeps going furthering disrupting my much needed mind relaxing high)

And then I went off.

Started screaming about problems how my mother is the most stressed person in the world, how he is as nervous as a 90 year old about everything and needs to chill the hell out, how my mother and him are still married and hate and constantly cheat on each other, how my fathers family woulnt visit his dying father thats only 20 minutes away from them, and how my uncle beats his wife.

And then I followed with. "You think I have a problem smoking weed? Then so be it. Check your facts cause its not bad for me at all (stated that many times to them) Then I continued on with. Problems? If my smoking is such a problem then so be it, cause I see me as perfectly normal, I dont have any other "problems" while you all little "anti-pot" uneducated protesters are the most hypocritical fucks because you have more "problems" Then my only "problem" smoking. But you simply blow all the important shit like family, honesty, and trust off as being nothing. I said: "To me you all seem like you have all the problems.

Was I wrong for exploding in this manner? Sorry if the storys hard to follow im still fired up and not thinking 100% clearly.
