[MLM Survivors Club] Re: looking for some direction

I thought I was saavy. I picked apart PPL. Then my best friend
approached me about another MLM. I'll give you a hint:
telecommunications, Trump, Kiyosaki.

I've recently spent some time pouring over chat rooms, blogs and both
praises and complaints about this company. There were overwhelmingly
more complaints than praises. I asked my friend pointedly how much
his upline makes in a month if no one in his downline recruits and
his answer to me was that I was over analyzing the company and it's
compensation.I love this guy. We have been friends for 20 years. MLM
can affect relationships. I will probably leave just for the sake of
keeping our friendship.

I read one of the other replys to your post. They do make money off
of training. They cleverly disguise it. They say if you don't sign up
for the International, then thay can't work with you. I recently went
to a regional and paid $20. Not bad right? Multiply that by about 650-
700 people in the room. The room probably at tops cost 1,500 for the
day. Oh yeah there was no milk or cookie, or lunch. I sat there from
10 AM till 3 PM.

Here is a good non scientific way to tell if someone is doing that
good. Look at their shoes. If they are dull and all scuffed up and
their suits are straight off the rack, then they probably are not
doing that well. Millionaires look good even in sweats and jeans. Ya
feel me?

Do your homework. Good luck.
