it actually was helpful. rents are sky high in denver right now and cannabis jobs don't pay much.
be smarter about your possession and cultivation is all.

You made a thread to say you're not going to bother making threads? Your queries may be better answered if you did not start by poisoning the well...
Poisoning the well (or attempting to poison the well) is a rhetorical device where adverse information about a target is preemptively presented to an audience, with the intention of discrediting or ridiculing everything that the target person is about to say. Poisoning the well can be a special case of argumentum ad hominem, and the term was first used with this sense by John Henry Newman in his work Apologia Pro Vita Sua (1864). The origin of the term lies in well poisoning, an ancient wartime practice of pouring poison into sources of fresh water before an invading army, to diminish the attacking army's strength.

Colorado is a tough place to break into the cannabis market exactly because everyone is moving here to get involved.
Better to find a state that doesn't have the history and that you think will be legalizing 'soon', then get your ducks in a row to be ready for when it happens.
Colorado is a great place to live, work, go to school and raise a family. You may find yourself in the normal economy but that's not so terrible either.
@UncleBuck can be abrasive at times, but he was speaking the truth about the high cost of housing in an economic boom. As bad as it is in Denver, it's even worse in many places along the Front Range.
My advice is to get here, get connected with a good network, get a job in a field that you already have some skill in and then work your way into the industry.

Thanks dude I really appreciate it. I dont want to start up a shop or Anything, Please dont chastise this next comment but I was looking at getting into criminal justice (not a cop) but then you get hardcore drug tested. I just want to get a job in the MJ business for now while I go to school. I didnt realize it was so expensive to live there. I wanted to do a rent to own type deal...can you get 2br in decent area for 750?
Once again thanks ty.

Maby I should look elsewhere as I dont want to struggle extra hard to pay rent\mortgAge while going to school. I have a great job, even has its own tv show but its not for me. School would be good for me, how should I start my research on housing? Im just very amateur when it comes to this. I can barely legally drink.

A lot of trimmers get $8.50 an hour.
The average rent in Denver and within 10 miles of Denver for a 1 bedroom shit hole is $1350.
Let's say he is talented and gets $10 an hour.
8 hours a day, about 23 days a month that is $1840 before taxes.
After taxes it would be hard to afford a shit hole, much less food.

norcal is getting dangerous, who knows how much longer the outdoor growing is even going to last with the drought in cali. you think its going to be the same 10-20 years from now? even the towns off the 101 have turned into tweaker towns. ive heard stories from people getting trim jobs out there and getting killed since you trim bud in the middle of fucking no where. nobody can hear you and nobody can save you.
