| Apparently this company is huge with people all over the world employed. A couple friends from back in HS have recently gotten into this business and swear by it changing their lives. Statistically, there's gotta be TAs who are part of this considering its scale. Anyone here have anything to share about this company? |

Sounds like one of those pyramids.
When I was in highschool some dude I knew kept trying to convince me to come to meetings and become a part of the company but when I asked him what they did I could never get a straight answer. |

| That's what it sounded like to me. A court case ruling determined they're a legitimate 'multi-level marketing' company ie NOT a pyramid scheme and if my friends experiences are any indication it sounds like a potentially great venture but I'm naturally skeptical. |

| I went to one of these things. It's terrifying. Very similar to a cult, seriously. Stay the away or they'll brainwash you. |

:stongue:
On their website they have a PR section that "gives you straight answers" to some of the criticisms they receive. One of the questions was along the lines of "are you a cult?" :wtf:
I was going to check out the free info session but business/sales is definitely not my thing so I'm not worried about being brainwashed. |

| My girlfriend used to market a couple of product lines for Amway. She did very well and made a lot of money doing it. It's definitely not a scam, it's a legitimate business venture. |
