This. This. And more this!


Shudder.

Because they're not fine. It's common knowledge that 99.7% of those involved actually lose money. Is that fine with you?

B-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-but that's because they're not trying hard enough!

I think you can draw lines between MLMs that are popular and good, and ones that are ridiculous because of the prices.

Back in the day, we all loved Pampered Chef. They had the best stuff, and the parties were fun.

I also feel that way about Norwex. Now I have all their stuff that I want, so I don't go to parties anymore. But man what great stuff.

I've never hosted a party, but I do like to go occasionally.

I won't go to Rhodan and Fields, because I won't pay hundreds of dollars for moisturizer or eye product.

Same thing for Cabi. Too expensive.

And in order to try harder, make sure you pay to attend more seminars and conferences, or books by highly recommended authors......so that you'll lose even more money, or lose it faster!

I'm sorry, but if you judge MLMs solely by their products, you have missed the whole point of what MLMs are, and how they really make their profits. That is a sentiment shared by 100% of its victims, who have been lured in by what is essentially the bait.

#1 ^^^

You make the choice to buy based on your needs and expectations. You decide whether you want to support her in any way. But she is an adult; her decisions are hers to make.

Stay far away from her.

And when at the convention, don't forget to drop by the "company store" in the main lobby and pick up the latest training dvds, books, ballcaps and tees.
