Drug Dealer. All you need is a connection and a street corner. Lots of competition out in CA though.

Also something to keep in mind in California is that cities like within CA have planned to or already have raised minimum wage significantly. This will cut into profits. In L.A they just passed a $15/hr wage by 2020 I believe.
Also each year until then the min wage will go up.

SF and Oakland recently passed similar measures and I hear it is negatively affecting business.

Businesses will either close, move, lay off employees, cut employee hours ,raise prices or lower the quality.

All not great options if you ask me.

It is a very profitable business, but i have the risk of finish in a jail.

I don't know if drug dealing is really that easy as people make it seem though.

Even if I wanted to get into the business. I don't know where I would find drugs to buy and resell , and I don't even really know anyone that uses hard drugs.

There is no demand for marijuana in CA because of legal medical marijuana nowadays.

I think this would probably be the same situation for many people.

Most drug dealers don't make much..
