    Another great episode πŸ‘ Puerto Rico has so much untapped potential. Who is governing the medical cannabis side of things? I’d love to read how they’re keeping MSO’s from operating on the Island.

    I don’t recommend people move to Puerto Rico for the Act60 tax incentives. They are most likely going to be taken down soon, most Puerto Ricans hate it because its causing gentrification to the island and the US government hates it being its losing the US millions in tax dollars. Also the rules to follow for Act60 are very strict and one slip up can get them revoked and if you use it as a loophole to not actually live on the island you can get arrested, the IRS is keeping a close eye on people who try to take advantage of this. Really these tax incentives are for people who are multi millionaires and billionaires. The only reason Act60 is still up is because the corrupt governor of Puerto Rico Pedro Pierluisi is using it as leverage to pressure congress to make the island a state, and he’s open about this plan, a while back the Puerto Rican legislator voted on a bill to get rid of Act60, but he vetoed it. All in all don’t move to Puerto Rico unless you really care for the island or have some connection to the island like family, do not go just for low taxes.
