Friends......lots and lots are either unemployed or extremely under employed.

Family.......most are unemployed.

Yep, this is what happens when your only goal in life is to get stoned, and think about a better life. Personally, I passed up that **** and got to the better life.

And to be clear.......I'm not talking about the recreational user. The person who smokes a doobie on vacation, or smokes a doobie with long lost friends. I'm talking about the guy who smokes it every day or every other day. Much like the alcoholic that cannot function without a couple shots a day.

And lets not kid ourselves. There are a crap ton of folks that are "dependent" on mary jane. The simply cannot function without it.....

Yep I watched a few guys and gals waste their life with that "I'm gonna party till the day I die attitude". I lived it for a year and a half after high school but something in me made me leave Orlando and go in the Military to get away (mainly my Dad and his life adventures/stories of seeing that the world is bigger than Orlando FL.) and experience things. It saved me from following the crowd and just working 9-5 jobs with no real career or skill in mind.
When I came back 4 years later my buddies were still living that life, still bitching about money, still bitching about getting a real job and still idle in life. I went to tech school and moved on...best move I ever made.
