The next time you see a news report that shows a "huge marijuana bust," pay attention. They always mention the quantity of weed they confiscated, and sometimes they mention a bunch of money that was also confiscated, but when they mention the "street value" of their bust, take a moment and think about this.
By the way, the above is a very small example. What would you think if they said the street value was $7 million??
What if, instead, you saw a news report of a guy who was found with $2 million dollars worth of jewelry in his suitcase that he packed before his move? Or what if the guy was a doctor and he had a bunch of vials of extremely valuable anti-venom? Maybe a huge truck from one of those air conditioner companies was stopped with a lot of that very valuable copper tubing that tons of people are being arrested for these days? Or sugar? Or wheat, or cotton?
The point is the value. What happens to the millions and millions of dollars of value that all this marijuana has once the police confiscate it?
