Dealing to cover schooling for a better education? :/

[chowdan]

Hello everyone. Well the title says it. And heres a bit about me. Im 21 years old and my parents aren't going to help me pay for college. I work a full 40+hr weeks as a game tester here in Seattle, WA. I make enough to just get buy and pay rent and support myself and all my bills(i dont own a car and microsoft pays for my buses). But i have been actually wanting to go back to school for a better education in the horticulture business as well as the IT field. Thats not just weed but all plants in general.

ANYWAYS! do you sell? I do not have many friends here since i just moved here. Where would you say i go? I can buy ounces that are mid-high/home grown in ounces and 1/4lbs. I can get a 1/4 lb for around 600-800 and can get ounces at 160-185. should i buy a 1/4lb and just stroll around the colleges here wearing a black bob marley shirt and a plastic green necklace that looks like weed leaves? or a shirt that says "The dealer is in the house" or something cheesy like that? I know if i sell at 10$ per gram and 18$ per 2 grams and just have a backpack full of these "dime" bags i'd be making a profit.

Is that a feasible thing to do on weekends? Or would i be better off going online buying business cards that have a "name" and a "number" and a picture of some juicey buds on one side and on the other have legal rights crap stating im a legal patient and am under legal law?

What you guys think?

DO you guys sell? If so how did you meet your clients? Are you under legal laws with cards? I have yet to get a card because they cost 200$ and am not sure if i should put it towards it.:/ but idk! Im lost and am sick of not being able to go to school because of finances. I would grow but i am unable to as my apartment is only a 300sq ft studio. IF i get my medical card would i be able to sell to dispenceries/collectives here in WA for theses prices(ofcourse in larger amounts say 1oz for 200-250)?

SO any help or advice would be great!

And also how do collectives work? DO they just reefer(haha i know lame joke) people to you and you make deals outta your place? Or do you actually just give it to them and they give you money at the end of the product move?

 

[chowdan]

bump....no one?

Only problem with selling in a school environment is that teachers are judgmental pricks and they won't give you the time of day if you're a dealer. Be under the radar, make a few friends and buy and sell in ounces not to make profit but to keep you in smoke

Just toss a few bags to people and your number and they will come to you no need to put yourself out there

I always say and respect, that you have to do what you need to do. Just accept the consequences if any come to be.

Guys in blue uniforms with badges are great receivers, makes sure to toss a few that way.

I like your prices :3

If you're sensible about how and who you sell to, I guess there is no problem.

You seem like a very conscientious person and you do have a job which is more than can be said for alot of dealers I've come across...

Hmm... Why not? Just don't get caught and screw everything up x

 

[r1tony]

Let's just end this thread and start your new one "Help! I was busted at school selling schwag, what can I do? My parents are going to kill me."

We can start posting in that one now as well.

lol you crazy. You know what I mean

a bob marley t-shirt and green necklace is too hot. a book bag full of individualy packaged buds, no. if you get caught, thats prison time, and prison is not like what they show on tv, trust me. just chill back and start talking to people about normal everyday stuff that look like they burn buds. when the time comes ask them if they smoke bud(not on first chit chat depending). or cruise around in bars/party and talk to people. just ask if they smoke herb and if yes, say do you want some

I'm in Canada but from what I understand you "donate" your product and they give you money as a thank you

Yes, I know brother. Your advice will work, but probably not in the way you responded. I also see this OP lacks common sense that is going to lead to a quick downfall of his newly found drug business. Advertising you smoke weed, and soliciting publicly in school is going to either piss off the smart drug dealers, draw attention from faculty, staff or campus security.

I don't care if he deals, gets caught or makes a zillion dollars. I am just trying to tell him that his plans are pretty much designed to fail.

I tried this for a few years and lets just say when i got busted i didnt even have enuff money to pay the $75,000 bond let alone lawyer and other cost.... wasn't worth it, IMO!..

I admire that you want to go back to school, but damn you must be some kind of idiot...get a better paying job, apply for financial aid and grants, take out loans, start out at a less expensive community college and transfer after a couple years... but don't try to sell bud to pay for college. I don't see this ending the way your hoping it does. Goodluck though.

You'd make a killing if you shipped it out east..but that's some federal prison shit

If the fucking US government wasn't such fucking pricks along with the god awful shitty school system i wouldn't be thinking about selling bud. I have applied for about 25 loans and have been declined on each and every single one. If i had a better paying job i wouldn't be considering selling bud either but as i have no fucking education besides highschool, no one besides the gaming industry wants me. By all means if you want to hire me PM me to help me out! But please dont say stuff like "Get a better paying job". That is NOT helpful in any damn way.

I am sorry to be rude in any way but when you have family who says you are an adult now you are on the hook for your own self, its not so easy paying for college TO GET A BETTER JOB when you have a low paying job.

I dont know you nor do i know your job qualifications. But i'd imagine 70% of the people who went to college have a family who helped them out in some way in either applying for loans or helping pay for college. My family does not give a shit about me going to college or not. They have not talked to me in the past 4 years since i moved out on my own. I have emailed and called many times and they will not pick up.

So please if you have no constructive information please do not post it. I understand it is not the smartest way to pay for college but after applying for my 25th loan I started to think about different ways to come up with money.

I have a legal license for medical marijuana and i can post on craigslist along with the business card idea. On one side oft he card i will have the legal information and on the other side i will have the pricing and a prepaid cell number. I will state the RCW legal info in full and will state it is medical marijuana. It will be my choice on a case by case basis to sell to people with or without a card.

I do not mean to be rude but i really can't think of any other way to pay for college. I make about 1500 a month. 90% of this is spent on rent, food and utilities. I do not have TV nor do i pay for internet(i have a handy skill in cracking wifi). I do have netflix for tv entertainment. I do pay 40$ a month for my phone but that is it. I have about 60$ left over each month after all my bills have been paid which is stuck in a savings account.

So any suggestions if everyone thinks i should not do this?

Pretty sure you can't do that bro ^^, you need to get a small business operators license, a bunch of other shit too I'm sure. Essentially you want to become your own dispensary. I would also advise against taking out loans for your education, you'll just end up with a pile of debt at the end, and if your degree doesn't turn out to be as great as you thought, you might find it to be just as tough to find a job as it is now, especially with the economy still tanking. I'm in the same boat as you are, have honestly considered turning to crime, nothing serious, nothing dangerous, nothing harmful to innocent people, just shit to make extra money.. I have a job that barely keeps me breathing, the competition these days seems unbeatable at times, the game has changed dramatically since the last generation faced the transition from young adult-adult, and it seems like they have no sympathy for generation X and Y's current situation. I feel you man, I sympathize, I know how it is. Not saying it's not tough, it's always been tough, but at least in years past other people actually got help if they really needed it.

My opinion - First off, if your not going to be legal about it, don't act like you are. Fuck business cards and advertising. Most of the successful dealers I knew were successful because they lived in the same place all their life and knew enough people to do it. Thats a big deal. Your apt may be hella small, but bud sells at a high price if its good, try a small stealth grow. Its easier to find a good dealer (one you go through for your stuff, for instance) then try to start that business from scratch. The only way I could see it being possible is if your extremely sociable and make alot of smoke buddies, call centers are great for that. But then your dealing with a shitload of people you think are cool but you really don't know for shit, and honestly, in itself seems a good way to get busted. Hell, try a guerrilla grow even, though this to, is extremely risky.
