Now, I've just seen something that 50 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 1: broke right now. As a previous podcast, we just talked 51 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 1: about what happened in New York. But I don't know 52 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,800 Speaker 1: if you've seen this, but the New Jersey they're now 53 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 1: accepting applications for recreational cannabis license. The state of New 54 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: Jersey has finally begun to accept applications for recreational cannabis 55 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 1: license now. The Cannabis Regulatory Commission the CRC, announced that 56 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 1: within the first four hours of applicants opening, five hundred 57 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:58,920 Speaker 1: people had already submitted their applications, with six hundred and 58 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,799 Speaker 1: thirty five accounts created by the end of the day 59 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:06,240 Speaker 1: that just opened up. I think that's just great. Here's 60 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 1: a quote right here. We are happy to reach this milestone, 61 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 1: said Jeff Brown, the CRC Executive director. Applications are coming in, 62 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 1: the platform is performing well, and we can officially mark 63 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 1: the launch of the state's recreational cannabis industry. Getting cultivators, manufacturers, 64 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:30,079 Speaker 1: and testing labs license and operating will set the framework 65 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 1: and established supply for retailers who will start licensing in 66 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 1: March of two. ARC also noted that the highest priority 67 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: would be given to social equity businesses such as the 68 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 1: l pures that we mentioned in the previous podcast, diversity 69 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 1: owned businesses, micro businesses, and conditional license applicants when being 70 00:03:55,920 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 1: reviewed now. This includes applicants who were previously died for 71 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 1: cannabis crimes, live in economical disadvantaged areas, are fit the 72 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 1: criteria of minority, women are disabled, veteran owned businesses. I 73 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:16,799 Speaker 1: love this. Following Governor Phil Murphy signing three cannabis bills 74 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:20,159 Speaker 1: earlier this year, in February, the CRC created the Office 75 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 1: of Minority, Disabled, Veterans and Women Business Development. In order 76 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 1: to follow through with the promise of supporting diversity. A 77 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 1: category was specifically created for social equity businesses applicants as well, 78 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:40,160 Speaker 1: which includes people who have lived in an economical disadvantaged 79 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:45,160 Speaker 1: area or who have convictions for cannabis related offensive offenses. Now, 80 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 1: those areas are defined as places where individuals earned eighty 81 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 1: percent are less than the state medium household income, which 82 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,919 Speaker 1: was ninety thousand four to be exact, and also having 83 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 1: unissued rates of one of of one to one and 84 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: a half times more than rates throughout the state, according 85 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 1: to the NJ dot Com. I just love the fact 86 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 1: that they're doing things like this, um you mentioned earlier 87 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:18,479 Speaker 1: and a problem never podcasts, how there's so many people 88 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,920 Speaker 1: that might not shouldn't be in this industry that are 89 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 1: kind of in this industry. They take advantage at the advantage, 90 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:28,159 Speaker 1: you know. And I'm here to say I'm not opposed 91 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: to those. I'm not gonna seriously they shouldn't. It's not right, 92 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: that's fucked up. It's business, folks. Business is business, right 93 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 1: like business is business. But when we have people that 94 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 1: have done this legacy market and legacy game, that have 95 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:46,160 Speaker 1: literally put this on their back and risk their lives 96 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:50,239 Speaker 1: for it, and then it's so this legal, they should 97 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 1: get a shot at this, especially when it's only cannabis related, 98 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,239 Speaker 1: and I love the fact that they're giving them these shots. 99 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 1: To me, the pro and con is when I think 100 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: about this market, there's always the gray area where they 101 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,640 Speaker 1: get the funding. But it's like you look at these 102 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 1: companies and think, oh, they gotta do this, they gotta 103 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,839 Speaker 1: do that. But it's like, how do you expect some 104 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 1: of these people to do that when they don't have 105 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 1: the funding this and that, and they gotta make it 106 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: seem like, oh, you gotta come up with that money 107 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 1: on your own, but yet not incarcerated for so long, 108 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 1: they couldn't go back and get a normal job. They 109 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 1: couldn't get a high paying job. But you get the 110 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,080 Speaker 1: license to run the business, it's gotta be all under 111 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 1: your name. It's gotta be all your own money. You 112 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 1: can't take other funding from private blah blah blah private. 113 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 1: It's like, come on, man, I mean, it happens and 114 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 1: they make it work because they figure it out. But 115 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:41,480 Speaker 1: that's the one part mark that I look at it 116 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,880 Speaker 1: and I go, it's a little fucking rough, isn't that. 117 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 1: Folks like you give the opportunity, but now let's come 118 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 1: up with it on their own. Well, the social equity 119 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 1: laws are if if they it's all sounds all well 120 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,039 Speaker 1: and good, it sounds very pretty, it sounds very nice 121 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 1: and lovely, but when it's implemented like it was here 122 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: in California, there's no oversight for people getting taken advantage 123 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 1: of by these companies are supposed to. The whole point 124 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:12,560 Speaker 1: is for these people who were in jail, for these 125 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 1: people who were affected by the War on drugs and 126 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 1: don't have the finances to do that, they don't need it. 127 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 1: They're supposed to hook up with a business, a company, 128 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 1: a person who has it. They're supposed to be the 129 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 1: majority owner and the other guy is supposed to be 130 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 1: minority and come in with all the money and help 131 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 1: them grow. But by and large, that's not what's happening, 132 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 1: because you have the predators who come in and say, okay, 133 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 1: here's the contract that says you have and we're sending 134 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 1: that to the licensing board. Now signed this over here, 135 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 1: that we're not gonna show anybody that's completely illegal and 136 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 1: we really own it, and you're gonna get you know, 137 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 1: ten or fifteen grand a month. Now, some people that 138 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 1: that's a fucking boatload of money, and that's all they 139 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 1: see in front of them, and that could very well 140 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 1: help them, but that fifteen grand a month, hundred grand 141 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 1: a month maybe is probably what they would ultimately even more, 142 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: you know. So that's where the big disconnect is happening. 143 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 1: And with the social equity applicants that we represented, you know, 144 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 1: we if they wanted to go into a deal like that, 145 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 1: they didn't need us to represent them, because we're just 146 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:34,960 Speaker 1: not going to represent somebody who's going to sign something 147 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 1: that's screwing them. You don't need an attorney for that. 148 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 1: We could tell you, and you know, if you want 149 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,680 Speaker 1: to go do that, go do it. The others we 150 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:47,239 Speaker 1: fought tooth and nail with these big, high powered attorneys 151 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 1: who were like, well, this is the way it has 152 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 1: to be. They don't even know the cannabis regulation and 153 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:55,320 Speaker 1: laws like we do, specifically my brother, who knows him 154 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:59,560 Speaker 1: inside out and backwards, and we just saw so much 155 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 1: of the greed that looking at something like this that 156 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 1: they're rolling out. Hopefully they have more of a grasp 157 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 1: and more oversight, but just like we see them rolling 158 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:16,200 Speaker 1: out and allowing cities to do whatever they want like 159 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 1: they did in California, a bad idea. You know, who 160 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 1: learned from what we've already done at least these other states, 161 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 1: and show us that a social equity program can work 162 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: properly with the proper oversight, so people don't get fucked 163 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 1: again again. You know, here's an interesting statement.

Now, Harrington's applications writer 167 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 1: Jamil Taylor explains to the UH New Jersey dot Com 168 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,560 Speaker 1: how difficult it is for black owned businesses to grow 169 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 1: in the cannabis space, and he says it's sad how 170 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 1: they're structured the process, but that goes to show how 171 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 1: valuable these license are. Tailors said they're limiting vertical integrations, 172 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:14,119 Speaker 1: but who've already given vertical integrations to the majority white companies. 173 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 1: You know, it never ends, it never ends, all this 174 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 1: fucking ship that no matter what dog from jump you 175 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,679 Speaker 1: met me, I've always been screaming black and white because 176 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:30,080 Speaker 1: it is it is black and the blacks the minority. Period. 177 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 1: I get included in the black minority and white and 178 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 1: the white always seems to get the upper hand. And 179 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:41,479 Speaker 1: you know it is what it is, you could say. 180 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 1: But when more fight happens, when more things happen to 181 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:48,199 Speaker 1: go in that direction, it is a nice thing to see. 182 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:53,079 Speaker 1: So New Jersey they got the applicants for recreational cannabis license. 183 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: Hopefully we see a lot of these get into somebody's 184 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:59,439 Speaker 1: minority hands, which would be nice.

I got a call, uh, and it's it's 211 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 1: a consultation call of when cannabis goes bad. And we've 212 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 1: been getting a lot of these lately because you know, 213 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:40,199 Speaker 1: raids are ramping up all over the place because of licensing. 214 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 1: But this was a this was a good one. It 215 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 1: was And you know, we get calls all hours of 216 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 1: the night, the day, whenever, and this one came Saturday 217 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,320 Speaker 1: at two am. And so it's a message that I 218 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:56,439 Speaker 1: picked up in the morning, a frantic call from somebody 219 00:12:56,440 --> 00:13:00,439 Speaker 1: that had a let's call it a I guess the 220 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:05,720 Speaker 1: delivery company. And it was housed in a shopping center somewhere, 221 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:10,200 Speaker 1: and that shopping center cop fire and it was a 222 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,560 Speaker 1: big fire. Was on the news around here. I don't 223 00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 1: know if you might have seen it. I don't want 224 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 1: to say where exactly, but it was on the news 225 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 1: out here in California somewhere, big fire, big shopping complex, 226 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:25,959 Speaker 1: and uh, you know, he was wondering what do I do? 227 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,079 Speaker 1: And this was the guy who's been a client for 228 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:31,839 Speaker 1: about two or three years, stays out of trouble, minds 229 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:35,559 Speaker 1: his own business for the most part. And you know, 230 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 1: when anybody calls with information like that, and that's what 231 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:45,679 Speaker 1: do we do? First of all, nothing to do. You're 232 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 1: not calling anybody. You're hoping the cops don't call you. 233 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:53,559 Speaker 1: Then it's like, you know, the warehouse to place, the business, 234 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 1: whose name, what, who's on the lease? You know? Oh 235 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:58,560 Speaker 1: I am, Oh, well they're gonna you're gonna get a 236 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 1: call probably, you know, so stay away. Then I get 237 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:07,280 Speaker 1: a call a couple hours after I called back Saturday morning. 238 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:09,439 Speaker 1: Of course he didn't stay away as all these guys 239 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 1: like to do. I'm across the street, right, I'm I'm 240 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 1: down this street. I'm looking. I'm watching Stay Away, Go Away. 241 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 1: Come into the office on Monday and we can discuss 242 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 1: what we what we need to do. And when I 243 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 1: meet people like that, I've got to discover what their 244 00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 1: criminal liability exposure is and know exactly what's going on 245 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 1: and what they do. Because this guy also had a 246 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 1: different a different business, uh legitimate business in the same complex, 247 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 1: so he had something else going on. And when you're 248 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: advising people and no another front of ours, I wonder 249 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:52,760 Speaker 1: if it was the same area. I don't know. This 250 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:58,480 Speaker 1: is nobody that you know as far as I know, okay, well, 251 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 1: and so you know they don't want to listen and 252 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 1: stay away, and that's the best advice we can give it, 253 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 1: you know, don't talk to the cops, shut the funk 254 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 1: up all that stuff. So he's supposed to come see 255 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 1: me today as a matter of fact, and he didn't 256 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 1: show up. So that always gets my blood pump. And 257 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 1: his man, I was, you know, I'm waiting for the 258 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 1: arrest call. What happened? He gets in touch with me, 259 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 1: he didn't listen to me. He went back, got all 260 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 1: of his stuff, and the roof had fallen in and 261 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 1: the place was condemned nobody, don't you know, So there 262 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:38,720 Speaker 1: was nobody watching it because it was completely roped off 263 00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 1: and just destroyed. Went in and now he's coming in 264 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 1: to figure out how this when cannabis goes bad story 265 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 1: can turn into a legitimate business. He wants to go legal, 266 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:57,280 Speaker 1: he wants to go license and legal, which is all 267 00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 1: too often what we're hearing now. They get said, how 268 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 1: do I do it? And it might be too late? 269 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 1: How sad is that for so many people market? I mean, 270 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 1: you hear this story on a daily basis, and you 271 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:14,080 Speaker 1: witness it, you hear it. I mean, it's such a 272 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 1: double edged sword because people are trying to make a living, 273 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 1: but they're doing it with that type of living, meaning 274 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 1: you can't do it in the black market. And then 275 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:26,760 Speaker 1: when you get caught, think, oh shout, I want to 276 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 1: go right now. It's just such a double edged sword 277 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 1: because I get it, but it's not okay. But I 278 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 1: get it, it's not okay. And then when you get 279 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 1: caught it's like, I mean, I get what you're doing, 280 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 1: and you know what I I use the analogy of 281 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 1: it's like when we're speeding, we all do it. We're 282 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 1: in the rush to get somebody we're in a rush 283 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:48,320 Speaker 1: to get somewhere. It's like, meaning, is selling cannabis that 284 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 1: big of a deal? Okay? Well maybe when you're pushing 285 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 1: thousands of pounds maybe it becomes a little okay, is 286 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:57,320 Speaker 1: speeding that big of a deal When you're going, you know, 287 00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 1: f eighty you could probably would get away with it. 288 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 1: So if you're pushing, you know, a little bit here 289 00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:06,400 Speaker 1: and there, can you get away with it? Who knows? How? 290 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:10,160 Speaker 1: You get caught right, and then rush to get somewhere 291 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:12,800 Speaker 1: you and arrust to make some money. It's tough, man, 292 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 1: It's a tough one. I know. There's so many people 293 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:18,120 Speaker 1: out there that make a living doing it. And well, 294 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:21,320 Speaker 1: and it turns into the same story is like they say, 295 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:24,840 Speaker 1: I now what can I do? Now? You know? And well, 296 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:26,520 Speaker 1: you you're not going to be able to get a 297 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 1: license under your name. You know, you can be involved, 298 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,119 Speaker 1: but with your name on the paperwork as an owner, 299 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:35,680 Speaker 1: it ain't gonna fly because you just got busted breaking 300 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:39,760 Speaker 1: the rules. How why why is the state or municipality 301 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:43,159 Speaker 1: going to give somebody a permit to follow rules and 302 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 1: regulations when they just broke the law. Mark say I 303 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 1: I've been pushing weight for a minute. I got my 304 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:57,720 Speaker 1: delivery service. It's all illegal, illegal illegal, illegal grands delivery 305 00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:01,440 Speaker 1: find me online, um, and I go to yoga. Mark, 306 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:05,160 Speaker 1: you know what I'm done, risking everything? What are my steps? 307 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 1: What do I have to do to get me legit? 308 00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 1: So the first so we're here in California. First first 309 00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 1: thing is you stop shutdown. Don't do anything that you're doing. 310 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:15,880 Speaker 1: It's all Mark, I can't but this is what pays 311 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 1: my bills. Stop shutdown, Stop doing what you're doing. Now. Okay, 312 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 1: that's what we gotta tell you to do. Now. Continuing 313 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 1: to pay your bills and make money is going to 314 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 1: leave you exposed. So let's have a conversation about minimizing 315 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:38,200 Speaker 1: your exposure to criminal liability. So we can have that conversation. 316 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 1: Let's have the conversation about what you need to do 317 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 1: to get legitimate. And you know it's it's in basic terms. 318 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:51,960 Speaker 1: In California, you must have property, whether you lease or own, 319 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 1: in a zoned area, in a in a city that 320 00:18:56,680 --> 00:19:01,400 Speaker 1: is allowing it and accepting applications. Finding all that together 321 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 1: is a pain in the ass, especially here in California. 322 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,920 Speaker 1: But that's what you gotta do. So Number one, property 323 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 1: number two. It's in the zone number three. The city 324 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 1: is accepting applications, and that's the process, and then you know, 325 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,640 Speaker 1: to sit down and really go through it takes about 326 00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 1: an hour. Okay, so I sit down with you for 327 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: an hour. How long would that process take me to 328 00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 1: make that happen here in California? You think from what 329 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:32,640 Speaker 1: you just said, So we have to start with property. 330 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 1: So we I don't know how long it's gonna take 331 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:36,960 Speaker 1: you to find property in his own area. We have 332 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 1: clients who hustle and they're out driving around fifteen hours 333 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 1: a day looking at properties up and down the state. 334 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:47,520 Speaker 1: Can you know po box. No, it's gonna have to 335 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 1: be an address with a parcel number in the zoned 336 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:54,680 Speaker 1: area for that particular business you will want to do. 337 00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:58,399 Speaker 1: So once you find the property, let's say you go, 338 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 1: you hustle. You know, I found a look action in 339 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 1: two weeks. Cool. Now it's in the city. They're accepting applications. 340 00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:08,840 Speaker 1: We start the application process. The application process could be 341 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:11,200 Speaker 1: one of five different ways, depending on how the city 342 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:14,920 Speaker 1: wants to do it. That process is going to take 343 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:19,639 Speaker 1: eight months to a year likely, and then once that's done, 344 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:22,960 Speaker 1: you have to then take everything and give it to 345 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:26,480 Speaker 1: the state. Because it's a dual licensing system, you must 346 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:29,560 Speaker 1: have the city your county permit first and then you 347 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 1: get the state license and then you can operate. So basically, 348 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:37,920 Speaker 1: once you have property, the timeline that we give is 349 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:40,479 Speaker 1: a year to two years to your time you're up 350 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 1: and running. And the ship thing is if you're leasing 351 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:47,879 Speaker 1: a property, you are carrying that least every month until 352 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 1: you start operating, you know, And we try to do 353 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 1: deals with landlords where it's you know, paying less now 354 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,120 Speaker 1: and once you get the license, it's gonna be because 355 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:58,920 Speaker 1: there's no guarantee you're getting the license. Let's not forget 356 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 1: about that, you know. And depending on the way any 357 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 1: particular city is doing it, you could go through the 358 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:08,239 Speaker 1: whole process and then not get the license for some 359 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 1: reason or another. You know, it's it's it's difficult two. 360 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 1: If you do everything right and you have all the 361 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 1: components and you're working with the right companies and contractors, 362 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 1: it's not rocket science. And if you have the property 363 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:27,160 Speaker 1: in the zone and you've got everything together, your chances 364 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 1: are very very good at getting it, unless you're stuck 365 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:34,439 Speaker 1: in a lottery where that could be anybody you know, 366 00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 1: the work is the same, You're doing all the same paperwork, 367 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 1: but at the end of the day, it's ping pong 368 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:41,200 Speaker 1: balls coming up. From what I'm hearing from you, it's 369 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 1: fair to say, if I already am doing something illegal 370 00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 1: in the black market in the space, it'll take me 371 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:50,119 Speaker 1: approximately a year or two to get me up and 372 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 1: running the year fair correct correct, minimal year up till 373 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 1: a year or two to get yourself legit. Yeah, if 374 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 1: you're if you're really lucky in a really good city 375 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 1: that has their ship together, which there's only a few 376 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:06,359 Speaker 1: in California, you might be up and running in eight punts. 377 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 1: You know that. That's that's and that's like a stretch. 378 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 1: But when people ask, we'd say year to two years. 379 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:15,320 Speaker 1: Be ready for that, you know, be ready to carry it.

And then I never even heard 494 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 1: of that. Look at this, eight seventy five a month 495 00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:18,160 Speaker 1: for each phone for the twelve mini. So did that 496 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 1: just come out? Yeah, it was a new special. I'm 497 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:21,840 Speaker 1: with a T and T, so I feel like I'm 498 00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 1: doing a plug for them. I wish they gave me 499 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 1: a better deal. Five a month for the to add them. 500 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 1: Then they put me on a new plan, and my 501 00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 1: whole plan was putting two more phones on it. It 502 00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:37,960 Speaker 1: went up like, you know, fifteen bucks so unlimited everything whatever, whatever. 503 00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:41,000 Speaker 1: Something's like, you know what, no brainer, let's go. And 504 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:43,960 Speaker 1: they have right now the little gizmo watches, which are 505 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:47,480 Speaker 1: good and cute and great, but they can't text back 506 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:50,479 Speaker 1: that that that whatever whatever. And they're pretty good at 507 00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,239 Speaker 1: their iPads unlimited time and this and that. And I 508 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:55,680 Speaker 1: finally figured out how to do the family plan with 509 00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:58,400 Speaker 1: the whole thing where every little fidget game that they 510 00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:01,040 Speaker 1: get doesn't pop up on my phone now, right, that 511 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 1: makes me happy. I finally figured out how to just 512 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,720 Speaker 1: parent things and not have everything come to me. You 513 00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:08,840 Speaker 1: know what I'm talking about. No, I know exactly what 514 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,440 Speaker 1: you're talking about. How about this, But this was with 515 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 1: our first kid, with Jonah, and he was staying over. 516 00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 1: This is like when he was five or six or whatever, 517 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 1: and he was staying over at my wife's sister's house 518 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:26,800 Speaker 1: and we were at a hotel somewhere having fun, having 519 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:30,040 Speaker 1: fun video oh my god, and sharing it on his 520 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:35,600 Speaker 1: and then we get a call from her sister. Do 521 00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 1: you know what just popped up? Popped up on his? 522 00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:43,440 Speaker 1: The thing like, oh my god, that was but we 523 00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:46,480 Speaker 1: had no idea if shared. And and because of that, 524 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:50,240 Speaker 1: I've not shared kept any stupid pictures of what that 525 00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:52,160 Speaker 1: I loved that people sent me. I can't even keep 526 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:54,760 Speaker 1: up on my phone because it goes straight through their iPads. Right, 527 00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 1: But now I just did this recently as if Christmas 528 00:30:57,680 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 1: is coming, and I was like, setting you guys up 529 00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:01,840 Speaker 1: and growing up counts your own everything.
