I have not yet looked up the word trolling, but it sounds like something I did not intend to
do. I guess the point of this post was to ask if some of the products actually work or if
they are all bogus like the MLM system itself. It just crossed my mind that if the product
really worked then more people would fall for the scheme. I was thinking, how about if
this did become something that we all needed, would this tempt us to join? Yes I cut and
pasted those supporters straight from their site, trying to ask the question: If all this
support is true, would a lot more people fall for it, or are they falling for it because of this?
Are MLM's allowed to make bogus claims? I guess they are because people are falling for
it everyday right? I am also starting to watch those Goji videos with those crazy people. I
am pretty sure there are more videos out there. So from what i have been learning from
this site is that MLM's will do and say anything. Another thing is that i'm not really into
vitamins and miracle cures and holistic stuff anyway. I have just recently been introduced
to this world and how people become crazy fanatics, like that goji video. All that stuff is
really weird and NEW to me. So please don't think that i am deceivingly trying to promote
MLM's, especially this stupid one that my cousin is doing. I guess i have learned that
everyone here does not want to hear it because they have heard it all before. No offense
taken, I know what you mean about "your point can be made without PUMPING the MLM Pr
methinks."
