As seen on the video by KJ Gould, the neysayers are sitting in their poor ass homes, in their crappy computers, with their crappy ass jobs complaining and moaning.
There are a lot of success stories that are well documented, there are not a lot of statistics of failures. This is why this formula works so well for the seller of the marketing system.
The only area where you can see some backlash is the recent "get rich quick" scheme in the real estate industry. But again, not a lot of concrete publiciations or studies on the people that failed.
It's sad to see, but it's not something you or I can change. It's just the way it is.
You are right, but you gloss over an important point, which is that the road to MLM riches is built on the corpse of MLM failures. That's why it's a pyramid scheme. Everybody tries it, but only a few make much money.
The really pathetic thing is to see guys sell off their integrity for what amounts to nickels and dimes. If there is anything more piteous than a low-level MLM drone going on about points, I don't know what it is. I feel horrified, like I'm looking at a burned baby or something, you just fill overwhelming pity and anguish for what happened to the person. Their brain is frantically trying to justify it, all the while there is a part of them that surely watches in horror.
Kind of like this Aqua Teen Hunger Force quote that always cracks me up:
Master Shake So how's this work? We got nationals?
Meatwad: All right, see, you also the savior of their race, like me, okay? So you gotta buy all the stuff in this catalog, then I get points, then so do they get points, and you get points too so they can get that Gorgotron killed, and somehow, someone gets a Ferrari.
Master Shake Yeah, I get the Ferrari. I'm the moon master. Now what?
Ignignokt: Now go out and find fifty others who are rich enough to take pleasure in this facade.
Master Shake Yo! Sign my thing.
Meatwad: Well you already signed mine. Go out and do my bidding.
Master Shake I don't know fifty people.
Frylock Can I help someone?
Master Shake Hey buddy, how's it going?
Meatwad: Come over here first.
Master Shake I want to show you some literature.
Meatwad: Show us how you sign your name, I know you know how to do it. Did you bring your pen with you?
Master Shake Nobody's talking to you; let the adults speak.
Meatwad: I'll get you a moon master pen, how's that grab you?
Master Shake I want you to look at this Gorgotron repellant. Go over it at your own pace, no pressure, but I do need you to sign it right now.
