In my opinion, you're getting paid several million a year, for fuck's sake wait until you retire, then do all the drugs you want.
I agree with this, but I also wonder.. Seeing that quite a few young adults in America smoke weed, would a product endorsed by a known pot smoker successfully target those consumers that do smoke weed?

For instance (assuming advertising works), a collge kid might decide that since Carmello also smokes weed, he can relate and is like him, and thus may buy his product because of this.

I certainly agree that drug use is definitely looked down upon by the bigger sponsors, but I wonder if smoking could be a positive selling point to a certain percentage of America's young consumers...

Thoughts?
