I see people are back on their Pyramid scheme grind. Vol. 5Linx

I've seen the pics of 5Linx
A few years ago, someone I know was pushing some energy drink, DrinkACT, all over FB
Nowadays it's another one of those coffee MLMs
Funny when you see the same 'successful' people just bouncing around from one pyramid to another.
and the people that got sucked in..... still doing their 9-5 job apparently.
 
There's one here in houston "you should be here" #%^ world ventures I believe.. Idk why people buy into pyramid schemes.. :smh:
 
My aunt was sending me emails about her 5linx. Blocked her ***.

**** is pretty much a referral program.

***** what! There was this company called Vector that did it. I was looking for a summer job and I saw their info. Talking bout you can earn college credits. Went to the interview seen they denied anyone who looked over the age of 25. Then we had our group presentation and they talking bout selling cutco knives door to door appointment type ****. Wanted $120 to start. Left that **** ASAP
 
To further explain, basically 5Linx sells telephone, VOIP, internet and other communications services. People make money by getting folks to subscribe to the service and by adding people to their "team". In order to be apart of the "team" and have access to selling the services you have to drop 450 for a membership fee, plus a 50 re-occuring monthly fee.

The person who you sign up with makes a certain amount every time they get a new person to sign up, so on and so forth. So yes if you have a LARGE network and a lot of people who are cold suckers it could work. Problem is the actual services their selling are no better than anybody elses, so theres no competitive advantage persay, all the money you make is from getting other clowns to sign up.

i had a chick reppin primerica come up to me in wal mart once back in the day

i straight up laughed in her face.............she actually looked sad too but i aint feel bad for her.
 
I know a guy who fell for World Ventures :rofl:


Wait whats the issue with Primerica? Theyre a legitmate financial services company with like 1.5 billion AUM. They pay their employees next to nothing though, from top to bottom it seems like.
 
never heard of 5linx must be new. Anyone heard of Vemma? It blew up around my local area, the people were mad annoying and tried tricking friends into going to meetings :rolleyes
 
Hit me up to get on this herbalife and get in the best shape of your life!

Man Cutco was easy money. Not only that but out of all the jobs I worked as a student in HS and undergrad (grocery clerk, summer camps, department store, referee) it was by far the most beneficial work experience.

:lol:

I was dragged to attend one of these pyramid scheme (forgot which one, but it had to do with home telephone lan line service or something) conventions by a friend that got suckered into joining the organization back in high school, he paid like $1,000 for that starter kit! :lol: At the convention, all the presenters kept talking about was how their paychecks get bigger and bigger and the slides that were projected were pictures of the whips they had, the houses they lived in, etc... When asked about the actual product/service they were selling, they answered with very vague responses and said all information about the company and how it works is provided in that $1,000 starter kit...
 
I know mad ppl with world ventures. Might b some of the dumbest ppl I know. Their demographic is basically 18-25 Ur olds with nothing going on in life and offer them these crazy dreams of cars/money.

You really made bread selling knives door to door?

I also attended one of those interviews after high school. As soon as they asked for 120 for a knife kit I dipped :lol:
