These 3 States Could Legalize Recreational Cannabis Next

• One state will immediately become the second largest legal cannabis market in the U.S.

Legalizing recreational cannabis could create a $24.5 billion industry by 2021, and we're giving our readers an insider advantage by showing them which states experts believe will legalize recreational marijuana next.

You know what's going to happen when more states legalize recreational cannabis...

Demand is going to skyrocket when anyone 18 or older is able to buy it legally.

Marijuana growers will need more equipment to grow more plants, and that's more money for manufacturers of specialty lights, indoor grow systems, farm real estate, and financiers.

With more equipment to grow more cannabis, growers will have more marijuana plants to sell to dispensaries.

Legalized cannabis isn't a fad. And it's a life-changing opportunity for those who invest early.

The only question to ask yourself is if you want to be a part of the $24.5 billion profit opportunity or sit on the sidelines.
