A fed? In texas, to my understanding, marijuana has the tax stamp law enacted.... How do you deal with that? If you come up on some fuck with weed and he pays his taxes on the weed, is he in violation of a law? would you be able to arrest him under any condition? Im just curious, and seeing as your a fed, you'd know. If you dont want to answer thats cool, i just dont know how you guys really deal with that tax stamp thing. Do cops even recognize it?

Well, Just waiting on it to be legalized lol. I give it about 1.5-2 years before its legal and permits to grow begin being distributed. The hard part is to get the permissions from state to operate the dispensary. My edge is I will be the only MDP who will have authentic jamaican and trinidadian strains. The two sweetest strains of weed, unknown to USA. Everyone will have the generic hydro strains, i'll have that organic goodness, top quality dank

if I can find a "new grad" job, then a nurse. Hopefully ICU or ER.

Does it matter what profession you're in and how much money you're making?
I'm sure most of us dream about owning a Bugatti Veyron...

I myself started off as a 3 series owner...loved my 330xi.
Took a couple of BMW driver training courses and had a chance to get behind a M3 in the autocross course.

It's an expensive car...but still can be an all year round car...kind of...so what the heck...decided to give myself a treat.

Profession:
Hardware Analyst for a Bank.

That's another sad statement for our society that Dad/Mom would buy their kids a car like this regardless of means. Not to say this is always the case (I'm sure there are some who bust their butts to afford this car independent of Mom/Dad).

But, to your point, this isn't a F458 and it is more accessible to a wide range of people who are prepared to sacrifice a bit for it.
It's not always the case, but I would say it's much more than 95%. I have yet to see a college kid that bought his own 3 series, let a lone an M3. I'm part of the crowd. I only paid for half of my 325xi and my parents covered the other half. (and before anyone asks; I didn't pay for the other half cause my parent's insisted that they would pay for it as a 19th birthday present. I'll repay the favor ten-fold once I'm out of college and working). Not to toot my own horn, but I could easily afford an M3 with the reselling business I run. A part time job would only make paying it off that much easier, but I'm happy with my 3 series . No need to run my own business, work retail and study for my B.S. in Chemistry at the same time... I might end up getting a job though just to get my parents off my back about not "working" even though I do.
