Regarding funding of the build out:
12/30/13:
"Chaaban claims capital was raised from a pool of, ahem, ‘seed’ investors that includes companies that deal in alcohol and tobacco, entertainment industry players and professional sports figures. He would not provide specific names."
3/4/14:
"He would not disclose how he raised the estimated $12 million it is costing to build the growing operation, saying only that he got the money from public and private sources."
I'm curious about who the "entertainment industry players" were. Maybe he tapped into Kid Rock who lives and is from Detroit. He's a hardcore Detroit supporter and obviously pro-cannabis. Just thinking out loud...
Thoughts?
