Normal Aging Memory Loss

Does daily marijuana use from the early teens cause problems in the brain other than short-term Memory Loss?
I know someone who is in his mid 30′s who has been smoking pot since 13 years old. He seems like a pretty normal guy, maybe a little immature, but overall he’s doing okay in life and holds down a job, etc. But I noticed he smokes pot regularly and has always done so since about the age of 13 or 14. He doens’t think he has an addiction to it, he says it just helps him relax. But I wonder if it does cause problems with people that they’re just not aware of? Other than short-term memory loss??
Is his brain functioning normally so that he can go on to achieve what one normally could not smoking marijuana at all? He seems to function normally while stoned.
i’m sure that job he has as a short order cook in a coffee shop has nothing to do with his lifetime of marijuana use
a little immature…how about he really isn’t any more mature than the 14 year old he was when he started
