In my younger days I was involved in what I still view a good MLM business, or should I say particular branch of that business where I did meet numerous people that had 'made' it.

However, I think the whole principle is built on mind games of 'where do you see yourself in 5 years' type of thing, and along with 'if you get x amount of 'likeminded' people to do the same thing' triggers dissatisfaction and greed. Anyone who looks at a MLM plan and gets hooked is a liar if they are not thinking that if they get a few hooked as quickly as possible they can sit back and rake it in.

Also, there is that slight brainwashy cloning where everyone is smiling and saying how great they are doing, scoffing at non like minded people and coming out with same one liners.

I suppose i'm saying that if you join one of these schemes then to be honest you deserve what you get. It was the initial greed that got you going.

You might now wonder why I refered to a 'good' MLM company? Well, the products are good, and still buy today if I can get hold of them. My benefit was the books which were motivational type books, which I still have a read of today - although one or two were a bit cringe making! :-)

Just my thoughts anyway.
