Many people think that some of the very lucky chosen few have and can get “rich overnight.” We are shown from a very young age that we can pull up to a building window and yell some instructions into a box, and move to the next window where food is delivered at high speed into our car. We then can eat the food as we drive to our next engagements. Instant weight loss plans, surgery, and technology feed the hungry monster of instant satisfaction. Why can’t we just type a few keystrokes and pull up to the back window and get the cash tossed into our car like grass from the lawn mower?
Business Death by MLM

A properly run MLM is not only a sound business model, but the educational structures they possess are often the best there is outside of paid education.

Am I a human or a number?
Has anyone ever sent you an E-mail that seemed like they forgot you were a living person? Have you ever gone to a store and felt like you weren’t a person? Just a number like at the deli, or the automobile tag office? It seems like we have been completely tokenized, even in social interactions we are now a screen name. At the root of customer service, people who are interacting with people must treat those people like they would wish to be treated. However, in our “Race to the Bottom,” as Seth Godin so cleverly calls it, we have dehumanized interactions with other people in favor of a better price, and a lack of reliability from the product.

I have the credit bondage disease, and I wish to enlighten others to the loss of wages, hours, and potential health hazards of this very common disorder in Americans. One that allows Americans to voluntarily surrender the freedom that our forefathers fought so hard to get us.
