PattayaParent Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 All businesses are pyramid schemes. The owner makes the majority of the money with the least amount of work while the manager makes less than the owner with a lot of work and down to the lower employees who make less with even more work down to the toilet cleaners who make the least with the 'crappiest' job. Yes Damian you are correct to a certain degree. Your reply is almost verbatim to what the MLM's (Scammers) use to try and dispel their bad image and make the gullible feel more at ease that it is a real money making deal. In any REAL business it is only fair that the owner / boss receives the bigger percentage of the takings as he has invested ALL his money on HIS business. And in a REAL business the boss does not earn his money by making the lower employees and toilet cleaners pay him for haviing their job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because that's the argument they use doesn't make it any more untrue. I'd rather be doing MLM in Thailand than massaging sweaty men or working at 7-11 all day for 150 baht. Your argument that owners deserve all the money because they invested the bigger portion of cash is just as ridiculous. They sit around all day while the people who are sweating and slaving all day make a pittance. Doesn't hold any more water than my argument. At least with MLM they're given an opportunity to build and to grow and put in as much or little effort as they wish,.. in a sense making them their own boss instead of being a 'slave' to someone else. Are you a timeshare salesman by any chance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanapollo Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 Shame, there are a lot of negative comments about MLM. I know that many people have been ripped off in it, like people in the states being conned into spending $4,000 on products they are unlikely to sell, but moves product for the company without finding users. The important thing is not to invest, that is where the ponzi scheme is. But recruiting is good because it provides market expansion for the company faster than advertising. Look at it as a consumers club. You will see more companies going for it and a growth of MLM because of the cost of advertising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
