There are two kinds of people. Those who can diligently save money and those who can't. If you are not the kind who can save money then you have no business smoking weed. I'll leave it at that.

its the people who have pre-existing conditions (that they will or will not admit to having) that have the bad experiences with not just weed but any drug. They talk bad about weed but its really them that shouldn't have been doing any type of drugs in the first place.

Japan, but from the 989
I quit weed 8 years ago. I used to chief heavily, almost everyday. But I wanted to make my life better. I went cold turkey. It felt like hell because all my homies were still smoking but now that I look back, getting focused was more important than being blazed and watching the Chappele show. I guess money and prospect of making more money won out. I don't miss it but when I get really old like 60 or somethin I'll probably start back up. lol

Continue advancing and growing broski. Take care of your health and continue handling your business.

If weed doesn't improve your life (which I find most users it doesn't honestly), it's simply a drain of finances, potential, and even minerals on a health aspect.

All just to forcibly push out an endorphin that we already naturally utilize.

I've quit before for about 6 months just to make sure my self-control was still intact. I've been back at it for the last 2 months, a J after work type deal. Think i'm done after this 8th tho my tolerance is getting too high... and this sour stinking up my apt.

Thanks for the stories brehs. Havent smoked in 3 days. Not that hard i just feel anxious in the pit of my stomach sometimes.

Its not like i was fukking my life up. shyt i had 4.0 gpa last year but i was doing shyt last minute and sleeping at 3am all the time. Not a good idea to smoke before doing work but shyt is insidious it just happens.

I realize now youre probably not maximizing your potential if you take any drugs. If your job is so stressfull you need to smoke all the time its probably a sign you need to change something.

Smart man. To me, weed has it's place but like I said earlier it is not for everyone and definitely will take something from you if you abuse it. People with self control issues should steer clear. I think once it is legalized and prices fall dramatically that will solve part of the problem but still some people will sit there smoking their life away. There are only so many hours in a day and anything that makes watching re-runs on TV more interesting needs to be examined with a critical eye.

That's one of the main problems with weed in a double edge sword type of way.

It can make entertainment seem better than it really is, like music or movies.

For a person who wants to travel alot it can make people more complacent and less motivated.

But for a person who is stuck in poverty or handicapped it can make the simple things in life more enjoyable.

So in other words, a handicap to the inspired and an opiate to the masses... Interesting take, I agree.

Well what's good for the goose ain't necessarily good for the gander. Earlier I said if one is the type who has trouble saving money then he has no biz smoking weed. That was my point. The self made rich man is generally that way because of drive and focus. Those two things are the first to go for the regular smoker.

I blaze but after all my work and stuff I need to get done is completed. It definitely helps with my temper and relaxes me after stress filled days from a demanding job. Its better than alcohol, and that's what a lot of folks do to relax.

Its never got in the way of me accomplishing my goals. Actually, its a great unlocking tool if you are a good thinker.

All also heard that Hulk Hogan and Michael Jordan both smoked alot of weed during their careers.

So marijuana is not going to inhibit anyone from achieving greatness at all.

Good for them but drugs seem to affect people differently. I can drink a beer with dinner once in a while and not go overboard. Some of my chillest friends will have a beer and then fukk someone up over the stupidest shyt.

I wish I could handle weed but I definitely can't. Probably started smoking too young.

Its not all bad though it has made me more open minded and interested in science, but like Alan watts says: "when you get the message, hang up the phone" (talking about psychedelics but seems to apply in this case)

Its also hard to judge how drugs affect you cause the sample size is 1 of 1. Whos to say some dude making 100k a year wouldnt have won a nobel prize or some shyt had he been more focused?
