I deal drugs for sizable profits, and it's kind of stupid. (AMAA in comments.)

in #marijuana8 years ago

I've never been much of a drug person. Besides marijuana.

I've tripped off acid once (interesting, but intense and not something I'd like to do again), and I'll drink alcohol if you insist, but the only thing I have really enjoyed in this realm is Mary Jane. I grew up buying shitty bags of weed in my local ghetto with friends, back when things were much more dangerous and far more risky. Looking back, I was dumb to take such risks.

But that was back then. Today, marijuana prohibition in the United States is largely a joke. The nation has all but agreed that there are larger problems to tackle. Acquisition is even more laughable: Anyone with half a brain cell in their head can order large amounts of quality weed off darknet markets. If you are reading this, despite what you think, you can do it. It's just obtuse, not difficult.

I would've never dreamed of becoming a dealer in the past. But with easy access to quality weed via darknets, and living in a place on the East Coast where it's still hard to obtain it, I have set up a small, but lucrative business venture.

A little background: I'm white, in my 30's, kind of nerdy-looking, in the IT sector. College educated. My shitty underpaying job is a drag, and I deal to supplement my income. I'm the last person you'd expect to be carrying and selling marijuana, which makes me the perfect person to do so. New customers still laugh when they meet me for the first time. I'm like something out of a bad comedy movie.

So why is this stupid? I can buy an ounce of good-quality marijuana for $160-180, and easily sell it for $400+. My prices are aggressive because I like to hold onto regular customers: If I was charging what my lame competition charges for their sub-quality dank, my cashflow would be even better. 

Think about that. I am charging 100%+ markup and my clients love me for it. Many businesses would kill for this.

If I quit my job (or more likely, was fired) tomorrow and did this full time, I'd easily make more than I make at my crappy IT job. 

The only reason why this is the case is because we are long overdue on ending prohibition, especially on the East Coast.

So support pro-marijuana legislation. Vote on what you can vote on in this regard. I love the money, but I'd rather just get to the point where legalization takes over. Hopefully by then, I'll have a better job. But if not, at least I'll be stoned off quality product I can pick up locally, and you can stop paying way too much for a plant.

If you liked this post, feel free to show your support by upboating it or Steeming it or whatever that is called. Also, ask me whatever you'd like in the comments. I'll answer whatever I can answer that doesn't put me in harm's way. (If you have suggestions for what else you'd like to see me write about, I'd love to hear that too.)
