Legal marijuana

[Sunset Rose]

Beginning January 1, 2018 recreational marijuana will be legal in California. My niece says she is going to buy stock in marijuana ASAP. She thinks it will be a fantastic money maker in the coming years.
What do you all think? I have my doubts about how safe of an investment this would be. But, maybe I'm wrong.

I think it's great news.

Investment-wise, I've seen it pushed online. I'm a bit contrarian in these matters. If it's such a great investment, it wouldn't need to be advertised.

Of course, my "advice" is worth exactly what you paid for it.

Invest not in stock but in a retail outlet, Hire good employees who do not get high and move out of the land of fruits and nuts. Run the business from another state because the cali cesspool just got deeper

I agree with you for once.

"As California goes, so goes the nation". I forget whose quote this is. Do you think it's still true?

I was just browsing through PJ on my phone. Lo and behold, an ad about six marijuana stocks set to skyrocket! If that were true, people with money for such awesome stocks would have bought all available shares. I wonder if the ad was prompted by the words posted. Probably so. A while back, I read about some former porn star being threatened with beheading by ISIS. I watched a few of her videos. She wore a hijab in some and I suspect that's why the hysteria. At any rate, I was barraged with porn ads for weeks. But I digress.

Let's see what happens with legalization. In another thread, I posted we should try legalization of all drugs in some state. I was hoping it was going to happen in New Mexico when Gary Johnson was governor. At any rate, if I were the federal government, I'd make note of this, get some smart people together, decide on some data to collect beyond the obvious stuff you and I would think of (crime rates and such), collect the data and see what happens.

We leave our investments in the hands of my Father-in-Law. He has been very successful with his own investments and we trust him completely. He's a fair/honest man...and it's a sure thing that you can't judge all successful businessmen as being honest. Seems those having the highest jobs in this country and making decisions that will affect all of us, are the most dishonest.

It's not a slam dunk business. The regulation will bleed these companies dry.

Safe investments are by definition low-yield investments. But I'd be worried not just about the feds shutting it down but also about investors being prosecuted.

Yes but we need to stave off the disease for as long as possible and encourage them to secede from the Union.

Translation: I get help paying the rent on my trailer.

Do they allow trailers on reservations? Hmmm....if you can't trust your father-in-law, who can you trust?

It will be a good investment.

I hope not though I am ok with legal marijuana.

It's caused good and bad things in Colorado. The economy is booming with pot production related industries. A friend of mine, there, makes a living now, building and selling grow-light assemblies. But the state is beginning to have problems with traffic accidents and moving violations. The few potheads, who can successfully find their car keys, are causing lots of problems on the streets and highways.
I believe eventually the state's love affair with pot might diminish. Just my thought, I could be wrong.
I am in favor of legalizing medical marijuana, but not recreational pot, in any and all states. The Baptists and the dope dealers, and their allies in the anal-retentive Republican government refuses to support that effort, after massive amounts of information that it actually helps many varied medical conditions.

The industry will be to heavily regulated. It's a virtually harmless drug, yet we regulate it to be worse than a prescription drug. It should be a completely free market for marijuana.

Sounds like a Friday night outside the 5 bars in my town of 7000, but those nights have nothing to do with pot. It's a matter of freedom of choice.
