I think it's safe to say that Greenspun isn't working as a junior pilot for the money since not too many people making $18k/year have their own plane, helicopter and Acura NSX.
It's not all bad: The California proposition to legalize marijuana was defeated in yesterday's election, which should help maintain demand for BC Gold dope.
