It did me absolutely no good. When the Feds implemented mandatory drug screening for people in my industry I quit smoking pot and my life got so much better.
No more driving across town to meet sketchy people to buy a product with money that could have been better spent, of questionable quality and wondering if I was going to get ripped off.
No more worry about being pulled over and arrested, losing my car and job. The penalties for pot were pretty severe in Nevada back in the 70's and 80's. Even got tossed out of Disneyland once in front of my family for smoking a roach in the parking lot.
When I quit smoking my family life improved drastically, became more productive at my job and trusted by my peers.
There are people that think drinking/smoking meth/shooting heroin/taking prescription narcotics/smoking crazy strong dope doesn't hurt them and improves their lives.
In my opinion they are wrong but life is about choices. Darwin's theory at work
