Oh, they are the health industry. Health isn't something I would dabble in and will not find myself using the products cause' I have my own health supplements. Firstly, the products should not appeal to me, though I haven't seen it. I do not know about the entrance requirements but if it is like what "unregistered" above has stated in what he see in inlife, whereby recruitment fees are the main bulk source of the uplines income, then yes, it is a Ponzi Scam in disguise and it is definitely illegal.

I believe the sequence of presentation during a seminar or product presentation will tell you what they have placed importance or take precedence in their prospecting.
If they start by showing you all of their achievements, and talks little about their product, you can be sure where this is going to lead. And if anyone of them says it will be easy to sell, from their mouths but you still have doubts about the product's value and ability to sell, do not continue to join. You can be sure you ain't able to market something you ain't confident with or will use yourself in future. And thus, you will fail.
MLM that put emphasis and focus on product selling, it is as sustainable as any other wholesalers or retailers. MLM that focuses on recruitment, will have difficulty sustaining in the long run.

It was a joke. These guys were just going up stage one after another trying to impress the audience by doing lame things like showing photos of what cars they have (mainly BMW/Merc/low end Porsche), waving business class boarding passes claiming they travel around the world all the time and some idiot went up keep talking about his Rolex watch.
Even at that time as a newbie in the bank, I've seen enough successful and rich bankers/clients to know these morons were a bunch of frauds trying to smoke ignorant people with cheap tricks.

Typical. I attended a talk by Lampberger(?) MLM selling scented oil before and got the same nonsense from these agents.
MLM mainly target people at the lower end of the economical ladder, so they set out to impress based on what these people believe the rich are like. Most of their agents have never seen or interacted with the rich and have strange thinking that the rich always revolve their lives around BMWs, golf, villas and drinking coffee in Paris/Tokyo. Childish IMO.

Mlm
@HanMark
It has been 2 years since your last post. Just wondering how you are doing. I don't think it's fair to assume ALL mlme-rs fail/ or are at the lower economical/ educational scale.
PS I am not in MLM.
