Not in Maine...but in state 13.
The law for me. 12 plants per patient, no more than 5 patients to a caregiver. Possession limit at 2.5oz per patient. LEGALLY, can harvest no more than 12.5oz "finished product" at a given time. At $200 a month, that is only $1k a month of income from this and better than 80% of that goes to cover simple operating expenses. Any monies that are left over get placed into a legal fund that is maintained by the club in case anything ever happens to a member, there is at least SOMETHING there to attempt to help out.
If a room is PROPERLY dialed in...cost of production per oz of even lower yielding strains of superb quality, is significantly LESS than what I charge. However, I do NOT factor my initial investment as something that "needs to be made back"...and therefore the setup costs never become the responsibility of the patients. I made a choice to do this...not going to use my patients as a means to "come up" in the world. (after all...certain expenditures ARE TAX DEDUCTIBLE to a business...get an accountant people)
There are MANY people in state 13 that plan on declaring over 50k - 60k of income from MMJ. I'm not sure how they are doing that or how it doesn't throw a red flags out all over the place. I mean, do the math, if you only have 5 patients...your getting 10-12k A YEAR from each of them. And seeing how all transactions MUST be kept on record, I'd hate to be the patient trying to explain to Mr. IRS how I managed to pay 1k a month for cannabis. Some caregivers don't think...what they claim, can and will also fall back onto the patients they serve.
Once again, I don't do this for the money. I do this because I am sick and tired of what is truly medicine being drug in the dirt because of the shiesty people that attempt to involve themselves in the industry. The time has come for a difference to be made and for an example to be set.
