with incentives to continually expand. Members get 10% to 15% commissions on
the expensive courses that they sell to people. So they can get a good
living selling courses and incidentally growing the business...So people
join and are persuaded verbally and monetarily to carry on working for the
business. No wonder it is difficult to break away...BillK


Multilevel marketing depends on growth for survival.  Eventually all such
schemes hit the wall and must collapse, once the number of new members drops
below the number of old ones leaving or perishing.  Sooner or later they are
left with an enormously expensive infrastructure and insufficient funds to
support it all.

Watch and wait, these next few years should be interesting.
