Incoming Chairman and CEO
Bruce Perlowin -- Chairman & CEO
Recently interviewed on CNBC's "marijuana, Inc.," the most watched CNBC TV program in its history, Bruce Perlowin has been noted as the "King of Pot" in various articles for the past 15 years.
On March 23, 2009, Bruce Perlowin launched the first public corporation (PINKSHEETS: CVIV) solely based on the Medical marijuana Industry. Through the public company (which was granted on March 24, 2009 by the Secretary of State of Oregon, the official name, Medical marijuana, Inc.) he intends to legitimize this industry, as a part of his decades of advocating the benefits of legalization of medical marijuana. He also intends to provide solutions to governments and communities that will ensure efficient regulation, and to ensure and profit from better monitoring and taxation of the Medical marijuana Industry.
In the early 90s, Bruce Perlowin co-founded Globalcom 2000. This company was primarily in the prepaid phone card business, which at that time was a virtually unknown market, with only a few producers. That company became the fastest growing, and one of the largest, phone card companies in the U.S. Among the many 1st accomplished in that business, was the 7-11 account, which was captured as the 1st phone card in the U.S. with a corporate logo.
Throughout the past 4 decades, Bruce participated in the network marketing industry and currently holds three world records in that industry. One, for the second largest commission check in the industry, when he earned $176,000 in a company called MyiBiz in 2001. Earlier in 1994, working with One World Communications, he opened 187 training centers around the world, in only 9 months (before the internet or emails were in popular use); a record that is still in effect today.
Incoming President
Charles Larsen -- President
After serving 8 years in the United States Coast Guard, Mr. Larsen began his career in the investment industry in 1989 with Peskin & Associates, a commodity trading advisor in Chicago managing client billing, regulatory monitoring and reporting, internal trading operations and floor broker communications. In 1991 he joined IDS, a software development firm in Los Angeles as a development and implementation consultant to the largest institutional investment advisors on Wall Street. In 1995, Mr. Larsen joined Tower Asset Management, a boutique investment advisory firm in Beverly Hills, assuming management responsibility of trading, technology and operations, also contributing substantially to a successful restructuring effort and helping grow the firm from $90 million to over $600 million.

nice to see that being traded, I think I'll buy some stock in that!

I called etrade 800-387-2331 and opened an account. wiring the money is the fastest way. it's easy to use and they execute orders quickly which is more important than you'd think coz sometimes you place and order and it doesn't fill coz the traders on the floor are too slow and you miss the price you want for buying and selling.
