My girlfriend (soon to be ex) got dragged to something like this a few months ago by her best friend from college. Her friend moved away for months to work for this company with her husband and when she came back she tried to get all of her friends to go. Afterwards I was sitting there listening to her friends all laugh about it. They said their friend had turned into a cult member and was actually trying to rope everyone else into it so that she could make money off of her friends. When I heard about the scheme I couldn't believe that people actually fall for this [censored]. I also thought it was ridiculous that someone would try and rope their friends in when the only reason is to get them under them in the pyramid thing or whatever. If you could work 10-20 hours a week and make X million, you would either keep it to yourself or work 40 hours a week and make 2x million.

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
