Remember the KISS principle_ Has anyone actually netted a profit(made money) except for the top brass? I don't think so ! LOL

My name is Leigh and this is my first post. I was involved in a
variety of MLMs. Amway/Quixtar was one of them. Then it went to
Teaminfocus. I have been clean for about 4 years now. So, speaking
from experience, all I will say is, Don't Go! If they offer to pick
you up (which is one way the use to make sure guest attend) don't be
at home. If your "friend" can't take no for an answer prior to the
meeting, he will get over it eventually. Trust me, if you go to that
meeting, it will not be the end of it. Just stay clear of anything
to do with them.

At first, I considered offering lots of ammo for you. Then I read
some of the replies that have already been offered and went back to
re-read your request. This is what stuck out at me:
> I'm not sure where to start.
If you are unsure where to start, you will be eaten alive by the
leaders who run this meeting. You cannot take a Cliffsnotes approach
to this. You HAVE to know what you're doing.
If you go in there half-cocked and only superficially knowledgeable
about Quixtar and MLM, your defeat will serve as the glue that cements
all the other IBOs who attend that night. It will be as
counterproductive as you can imagine, and as Susan has already pointed
out, you'll probably lose your friends in the process.
In my opinion, the best course of action is to simply tell your
friends that there is enough evidence against MLM and Quixtar to doubt
the authenticity of the opportunity, and that if you have doubts, you
can be sure that anyone you would approach about it would have doubts,
too. No one really has time to fight that battle, unless he is
already indoctrinated into believing he does.
I would liken MLM to a fishing expedition: Sometimes you go out and
catch something. Sometimes you go out and catch nothing. But at all
times, a good fisherman knows what kind of bait to use and which kinds
to use. Many fishermen know how to use fish AS bait.
Don't be baited. Don't be bait.
(And if I was in a joking mood, I'd say that the MLM leaders who are
entrusted with running these meetings are master baiters. But I'm not.)

Sounds like a great way to kill off a friendship to me.
Humiliate your friend in public.
That should really convince him how you feel.
(Have you really thought this through?)
Offer to do a trade instead: you'll attend his Quaxtar meeting if
he'll attend your next coven gathering under the new moon, where
you'll be celebrating with a ritual human sacrifice. Tell him he'll
be the only guest. (That should get him wondering!)

Forget the ammo.... JUST DON'T GO. STAY AS FAR AWAY FROM QUIXTAR and
DEXTER YAGER as you can!!!!!!!!!

A couple of my friends recently got involved with quixtar and think it's the cat's meow. I'd
never ever ever ever EVER join it. However I am going to a meeting this upcoming monday
(apparently with some "friends" reciprocating acts is a friendship requirement)
I know it's basically Amway with a funny name. And I know it's a MLM scheme/whatever
you wanna call it. When I go I plan on asking a lot of questions and trying to make the guy
giving the schpiel as uncomfortable as possible.
I'm not sure where to start.
Average monthly income (I read somewhere it's around 88 dollars a month).
quality of the product? Is it really as good as they say it is? That's about it. I've tried to
weasel out of it as many ways as I could but he's not letting up and has now recruited his
wife to follow up with my wife about me going.
any help would be appreciated. The meeting is monday from 7-8 central standard time.
