    My investment is small. I've hidden it on the top shelf of the kitchen cupboard.

    In all seriousness, if someone is promoting a cannabis investment to you, it is probably a scam. Cannabis is the new crypto and the usual suspects in the unregulated underbelly have been punting supposed cannabis funds and EISs for the past year.

    You invest in shares or a bond from some no-name company that claims they're going to invest in cannabis farms or IP, something something something, and when it IPOs on February 29 2019 you'll double your money. Sound familiar?
