Lessee…I’ve tried Amway (in the 70′s), Tupperware and Mary Kay (in the 80′s) and I finally figured it out. 
Since then I’ve run from any person trying to get me into any business that requires that I continually recruit new marks in order to make money. Who among us (women especially!) haven’t been to a house “party” where part of the pitch is to “become a consultant, distributor, partner, etc.”
These companies, and hundreds more like them, rely on the inability of most people to do the math and apply some critical thinking.
There is No Way you can make a living just selling the product. Like a pimp, you must constantly recruit and recruit and recruit. Seems to me if you want to make money you want more market share, not more competition! Furthermore, unless you get in on the ground floor of these highly unethical schemes, your chances of making any kind of go of it are next to nil.
Nice to see a website dedicated to the scam that is multi-level marketing. http://mlm-thetruth.com/
