Hi 🐟 fam, I was approached by two entirely different people this week to grab coffee and talk about a business opportunity. The idea seems a pyramid scheme for Amway. Any thoughts?

Ummmm u already know.

One of the dumbest moments I've ever felt in my life is when I met with a recruiter who turned out to be recruiting for his amway store. Boy did I feel like an idiot after that haha

Yes, tell them to fuck off. I keep on getting a LinkedIn invitation to discuss managing a shitty insurance office in my home city.... are you for fucking real????

Draw it out. Does it look like a pyramid? If so, it's a bad idea
