for a lot of people. do you think the state as a whole is treating this issue with those same high stakes? >> i know we're working very hard. i know they're very working very hard upstairs. >> i started, it was a very small amount of money. >> reporter: in the meantime our pot farmer back in humboldt county is still waiting for a safe place to put his money, something better than where other growers in his neck of the woods have stashed their cash for decades. >> there must be a billion dollars buried in the hills up here at least. >> reporter: pending legislation would allow state licensed banks to issue special checks to weed businesses, and we've learned several credit unions in california are working with people in the cannabis industry. and while some dispensaries can now process debit or credit card payments, if you want to buy weed, you should still bring cash just in case. >> fascinating story. thank you, liz. if you have a tip for liz in the investigative unit, you can call her or visit our website.
