Hello there,
Just wanted to second what Mick said. about getting well away from this MLM.
You might like to take a look at the following site to get some inspiration for how to clear your debts - anything is better than MLM!
www.mlm-thetruth.
I'm working at a shop on Sundays so I can buy Christmas presents for my kids and friends, I know exactly how much I'll earn, it's a 20 minute walk away and I have no other costs. I remember this time of year when I was in Amway, I'd be driving for miles to do a colour (makeup) clinic with no guarantee of how much I'd make - by the time I'd deducted the petrol, and petrol for the return trips, possibly to several addresses, to deliver the stuff I'd almost certainly made a loss, but, hey, I'd make my PV target for the month. Might even meet someone who'd want to build the business (so no chance of any genuine conversation then). Completely bonkers.
You might want to check out some of the information on leaving cults as there is quite a period of adjustment to go through. Give yourself time to rediscover the person you were before - maybe music you liked to listen to, favourite books, movies, anything to help you reconnect. Enjoy time with your family in the festive season.
All the best - you'll get a lot of help from this site.

"jjhodson@juno.
what i was getting into, nor did I know what an MLM was. I joined another MLM 5 years ago
and I'm still in it. I won't say with what company, I feel like there would be backlash from
any supporters. I am finally thinking on my own, and I don't need anymore BS from the
uplines making all the dough.
I've been having doubts for a long time. I honestly believed I could make money just selling
the products. I've learned that it is not about selling the products, but selling "the
opportunity.
with me. I just accumulated my own debt, thinking I could just be a passionate saleswoman
and live the dream of staying home with my kids. I've been in for 5 years, telling my
husband "just one more season" to get out of debt. I cannot make a profit unless I sign
people under me and I refuse to do that. I'm grateful that I haven't ruined any friendships
along the way, never asked them to do parties for me. I'm beginning to see the light, and
I'm just very sad about all of this...sad that my dream failed, sad that I put my family aside,
sad that the sugar-sweetness of this company and all those people is at my expense. I
really believed in all of this, and when I see our CEO smile, I wonder if he/she knows that we
are broke (financially) and broken (emotionally) at the bottom.
I want to hang in there and work down this debt. Why should my husband work any harder
to clean up my mess? On the other hand, my time could be spent doing more productive
things for my family. I need to break the ties and realize that I was betrayed and lied to. I'm
glad I found this board, I need to hear the truth, no matter how much it hurts.
