Anyone ever up and move for MMJ with no money?

A guy I was friends with from work just up and sold everything except his clothes and a few other items and got on a bus to cali one day. Last I heard he was doing alright and had a baby girl not too long ago, I don't think I could just up and leave like that but he made it ok.

If you at least have some friends or family there I would go for it, if things don't go your way you might be able to just stay with them for a while until you can move back home or whatever.

not yet!
good luck to ya'

My brother did a very similar situation in May of last year. He packed his belonging and moved to just outside bakersfield, ca. He found a place he could rent online, sent the money and about a week later he left.

He left in May of 11'. He did not get a card until Sept of 11'. First he had to get Cali ID and that proved to be where his troubles started. Had to file for a new birth certificate from south carolina. He got the wrong one the last week of August. Once he notified them of their mistake they overnighted the correct one. From that point he was able to obtain Cali ID.

Proper Preparation is most def the key. I don't think its best in today's world to attempt this on a prayer Take your time, save some money, and who knows by the time you get enough money to feel comfortable doing it, you just may as well have medical cannabis statues in your state .

Lastly, My brother moved to Oregon in March. Be really careful what you wish for Sometimes a dream can really be a nightmare. In my opinion, the cali medical scene is proving to not be all that its cracked up to be after all.

All the Best~

if your not good at saving money, and you plan on growing for cheese you have some things to work out first. There is no jobs in cali, at least southern. I have friends that graduated from college that live at home and work for 8 bones an hour. its expensive to get a place out here. i dont know what size grow your talking about, but check mine out. to get everything setup and get through to my first harvest was about 12,000. i kinda did the up and move thing to start a grow, except i already lived in cali and only moved a few hours lol.

the last 2 sentences in that write should be copy pasted into everyones thread that wants to grow in the "cali dream". where there is legalization, there is competition, tenfold in california. everyone can drive a car with simple direction.. not everyone can race cars and expect to make money at it.

Not enough data. It depends on how far you're moving and from where, how much stuff you're moving, where in Cali you wanna move to. It makes a difference. Med cannabis is no cheaper than "street weed" thanks to Obummer. Just get your card and grow your own, that's about as cheap as it gets. I was born in Mendo but left before I was 3 but and am planning on going back after almost 60 years.

hows your brother doing in OR? ive always wanted to live there. it seems really nice.

Yeah, if you wanna move to Cali, I suggest saving about $10k first, assuming you're gonna be by yourself. You can't find anywhere desirable to live for cheap, and you can't find any jobs where it IS cheap to live. Unless you have a job and a place to live already lined up, I suggest just stuffing more money in the piggy bank for a while.
