  1. CBS evening new had a feature on MLM scam and the results on
    dealers. It was fairly comprehensive. Dealers are losing
    several thousand dollars on a vitamin deal. It is so common.
    Think about--- some poor fool spams us and takes a bunch of
    flack fro us for intruding here. The MLM person pockets the
    money. A definite lose--lose situation. If they let some con
    artist lead them this way, I do not feel sorry for them.

    A fellow I went to high school with. allegedly made $800
    Million with some MLM soap deal. He was flying around the
    country in a Sabre Jet.

    I wish I had been born without a conscience. So many of them
    prosper. My stinky weed is the wonder cure for diabetes. No,
    just a joke.

    Hope our gal saw the CBS news tonight. Guy

    And so many, many more, do not. It's like gambling,
    really. The vast majority of people who walk into a
    casino, and bet their money on various games, come out
    with a lot less than they had going in. Once in a while,
    someone wins big, and walks out with a lot more than he
    had going in. The casinos want you to think you've got a
    reasonable chance of being that big winner, but the
    reality is, that you do not.

    MLM is a lot like that. A few people who get into it are
    very successful; most are not. Having a conscience or not
    really doesn't make that much difference. The idiots who
    spam this newsgroup certainly demonstrate an abject lack
    of conscience, yet I am sure that nearly all of them will
    ultimately fail. The ones who succeed will, for the most
    part, be the ones near the top, who got in early.

  3. My sister had a friend cought upin MLM. I say "had",
    because we've had to set her free, so to speak. She became
    so rabid about what she was doing and demanding us to get
    involved, and to involve other people we knew. It was just
    plain theivery. She was friends with my sister for 13
    years. I am not wealthy, but I'll be damned if I'd swibdle
    people. Rainbow

    Cadillac, and went home in a $1,000,000 greyhound. . . 8^)

    My mother's next door neighbor just won a very expensive car
    while in atlantic city and is not desperately trying to
    raise the Tax money in order to keep it. He has the option
    of trading it in for the cash value minus the tax but he
    really wants the car.

    personally I'd take the 28K after taxes.

    Israel, two bastions of strength in a world filled with
    strife and terrorism.

    "To announce that there must be no criticism of the
    President, or that we are to stand by the President
    right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile,
    but is morally treasonable to the American public."
