Pyramid scheme??? or not?????

Over the last couple of months I have had the need to find more team members to join my organisation.  Whilst doing this I have come across many adverts that require a deposit of cash upfront and then promise huge payouts over the next month or so....  it always amuses me that someone can part with their hard earned money in this manner.  So, it got me thinking and I did some research about pyramid schemes as opposed to my business which is multi-level marketing.  The reason I did this is because so many people tell me, 'Oh that is just another pyramid scheme'. But is it?

I found out that :

no. 1 - Multi level marketing is legal as opposed to Pyramid schemes that are illegal.

no. 2 - MLM has a tangible product where PS do not. ( alarm bells start ringing)

no. 3 - MLM commission is paid to distributors at multiple levels when product is sold and with PS there are no products sold.

So now that all makes sense I want to just add another item that I found!

And here I go back to my last blog of the 40/40/40 syndrome???

And I ask the question once again???  What does your future hold??

Have a fabulous Monday everyone....
