Absolute scam, pyramid scheme bs

They like to call themselves multi-level marketing, which is multi-level bullshit (even by marketing's standards)

Run away. Have had a family member get caught in this scheme. They sell dreams - and disappoint. For the desperate.

like

Every Indian person and their mother was selling this crap in the 90s. It makes money for approximately <1% of the people who sign up for it

like

Run away as fast as you can. You will lose money, distract yourself from your job, and annoy your friends/Family/neighbors. Don’t fall for it.

Yes heard of them...they have a lot in common with Doterra and Young Living...their distributors are actually the ones buying most of the product while the main goal is to sell sign ups

Watch any video of Bill Ackman talking about Herbalife on YouTube he case he makes is broadly applicable to cults/mlm/pyramid schemes.

Used their protein powder and shampoo. Overpriced

Don’t even try it - My buddy dropped out of college (had one year left) in 2007 (Was called Quixstar) at that time, needless to say 10 years later, he has not done much with it. Maybe some side income, but I know he put A LOT of time, energy and money into it. He works at a retail furniture store and has been doing that now for years. He is really smart too. The hype can get you pulled in, but in today’s Amazon world, that business model is just not sustainable.

A college friend of mine does and is currently a top level seller. The thing is nobody in our class is her friend anymore

It’s a pyramid scheme. You only make money through selling sign ups. So if you can’t con other people to become distributors you make nothing. Def watch the video SC1 posted!
