I fell there was a correlation between the use of this heavier strain of cannabis and still not having a job at 28 years old.

There's a reason "correlation does not equal causation" is such a popular heuristic.

Maybe so, but i did prefaced my comment with "Completely anecdotal"

I can only speak for a sample size of 3 people out of 40.

I've smoked pretty much daily since I was 23 - started a business, grew it to a £3M+ turnover over a decade, sold out 18 months ago.

Correlate all you like, but if it's causative, then I need to disappear in a puff of logic.
