Are there any REALLY succesful people out there that burn trees daily. I'm talking about like big bosses, CEO types, basically people who are making alot of bank...alot. Does anyone know of anybody like that, maybe a celebrity, or maybe yourself?
I blaze everyday, and im proud of it, so save your anti-marijuana bullshit because anything you say is not true.

By successful, I'm guessing you mean that they are able to make a large amount of money? I know a few who will remain nameless & they have lots of money, cars, homes, businesses, & phoney friends. They are divorced, alienated from their children (only $$$ gets their time) & have no friends that can truly be trusted. They also proudly blaze everyday & I suspect they are selling it & their businesses are being used for trafficking & money laundering. Don't forget all that stolen merchandise that is traded & sold by the customers who are also blazed everyday. If that's your idea of successful, then I guess you have an answer. When you choose to live like that, you HAVE to stay high just to look yourself in the mirror! The IRS could take it all away in the blink of an eye & I doubt any of those phoney friends & employees will do anything to help the boss, except to keep him high while they take what's left!

It depends on how people define success. Smoking weed is really something to be proud of. Be sure to include that activity on your resume. It should greatly impress any prospective employer who reads the skills you will bring to the position that you are applying for. As well, most companies now drug test most applicants. A positive test for any illegal drug usually results in a disqualification. If you are a daily user of weed, it will take close to 6 months before you will submit a specimen that will test negative. Good luck.

I dont blaze everyday, but used to. I smoked with attorneys who defended those who got into trouble over it! I think you can still be successful if you dont let the lazy factor settle in. Since I dont drink alcohol, even my doctor said that a little weed wont hurt anyone! Have you ever heard of anyone overdosing because of weed? March on!

There are people who smoke weed and function. There are also people who snort cocaine and function, with many of them being in govt agencies and other high powered positions, that's usually how they are able to speed thru. There are also some people who smoke crack and function. These are what you call functioning drug addicts. They work and do normal activities like anybody else but they need the drugs to feel "normal". So even though it is good that they go out and contribute to society instead of burdening it, they still are placing the burden of drug dependecy on themselves. As long as you can fulfill the necessary duties of your life and as long as you aren't harming anyone else in the process to each his own. All the best.

Sounds like you're looking for justification to blaze. If big honking successful people can do it , then i can too!!! Crawl out of your mental fog that you're surrounded in (yep that's pot), join the rest of the world that dont need to get stoned to get by. We're not scared to face life.

I think if you did hard enough, there are about seven people who actually receive weed from the government for there illnesses. I believe one of them is a stock broker. I will try and find some sources for you.
EDIT:
Found it, its Irvin Rosenfeld, who is a stock broker and receives weed from the government. (source 3)

hmm a lot of celebrities do it. I know a molecular biologist who smokes all the time. I also know an investment banker who smokes at least once a week.
