Gotcha Steve. I misunderstood what you were saying.
I do think though that low self esteem is not a prerequisite or even a
common trait necessary for falling for a MLM.
Vicki, what you are saying about MLMs zapping your self esteem makes a
lot of sense. You end up doing so many things that are beyond what you'd
normally do - and you just don't feel good about it inside. All the while your
upline is trying to stick their fingers in your ears and give you a chant to
block out your inner feelings and instincts.
Even with that though, I don't think the issues brought on by MLMs are
necessarily long lasting, at least for those who can work through their
problems.
I can understand all of what Dukeboyz was saying and certainly don't think
it adds up to low self esteem. Of all places, this group is where ex MLMers
can voice their inner thoughts and feelings they had while under the MLM
influence.
Hopefully those who haven't experienced MLMs first hand will respect that
and speak to the positive traits needed to break free from the crackpot
industry. :)
Lauren
