I've been approached by three different people, each from different companies. The first was World Ventures, which sells discounts on trips or something of that nature. The second was some energy drink sponsored by Dr. Oz, and the third was called MCA. All three of them basically have the same concept, where you recruit people to sign up and somehow make money from them doing the same. World Ventures is getting to be the biggest around here, and I guess you can get a BMW if you go hard enough with it. Anyone else seeing this hustle around?

Young dude at my school tried to put me on some energy drink pyramid scheme. Said he made 350 but had to pay 200 or something to buy the drinks. IDK my homie n me hit dude with the extended stone face n left while he was talking.

:lol: @ Diddy

Yeah I really never had any intentions of actually doing it, but my city(Buffalo) is so small & the amount of people doing it is crazy. Dudes talking bout they're gonna be rich, making more money than their parents & what not
 
The people in these programs are scumbags. I went so far as to compare pay checks with one dude that tried to sign me up for his program to prove to him that my 8-5 was more efficient than what he was peddling to me. Engineering FTW.
 
You're gona lose money. It'll eventually fail once not enough people join.

The people who start it or get in on it early profit from it.
 
I'm bout to start a Rep Pyramind Scheme

I actually know someone who is EXTREMELY successful in his MLM. :lol:

Dude sells/promotes 4 Life products. Dude showed me one his BofA stubs and dude had a cool million dollars in his account. Still baffled. Bought his wife a new X5 in cash. Dude is only 29, too. More power to him. :pimp:

I know a lot of people who're starting to get into that Amway stuff lately. Got asked a couple times to join in, but I don't have the time for these scams.
 
i had a good friend call me a couple months ago and her first words were "hey, do you want to make some money?" i knew right away what she was trying to get at. she dropped $200 on some discount website, crazy since she has a newborn. :smh: FOH with that S.

Nice try.  The majority of jobs aren't based on who you can recruit and how much you can sell.  A pyramid will accept anybody into the company.  Name a job like that other than a scheme? Food for thought

Every company is set up like a pyramid but every job doesn't work like a pyramid scheme.  And I work in a museum in Egypt. I'm a King Tut impersonator. 
 
I did that Vector crap a few years back... In retrospect, I can only laugh at myself for trying it out. :lol: :smh:
