99.999% of people claim you should eat food. Of course, you should do the opposite because 100% people who eat food eventually die!

This is the best analysis of mlm (network marketing) I’ve ever seen. All the “no’s” we get from ill-informed, ignorant people, should watch this…yet again…they would probably still say mlm is a scam and it doesn’t work. I’d like to ask all those people, how is their current job workin for them? Are they happy? Can they travel? Do they have the things they want in life? Do they have their FREEDOM? I think it’s “gut-check” time people.

The second man did two things
Firstly he saw an opportunity, the other man didn’t
Secondly he sat down and planned what he was going to do in order to do the work once but get paid over and over. The other man didn’t.
The same applies to MLM

Based on comments below I sense there needs to be a differentiation between a having job that pays per hour and owning a business.
The story was told of 2 men given the task of providing water to the village.
One was quite happy to make several trips per day carrying 2 buckets each trip. (How much water could he humanly take each day?).
The other built a pipe that lead from the river to the town and put a metre on it so people would have to pay each time they needed water.

I didn’t say people who WORK FOR someone else like a JOB. I said people who start their own business. In a JOB you have invested NOTHING and are just a spoke in someone else’s wheel. You are working to make someone else rich. Unless you have your own business you will NEVER be wealthy and you will never “Own Your Own Life” because you are tied to hours and getting paid
“linear income” as you trade your time for dollars.

Very, very good video. Thank you, this is crucial to understand ! ! !

By the way i’d like to add this people who are actually trying to evaluate the network marketing aka MultiLevelMarketing industry objectively. Some of the people commenting here have failed at it, and some people have succeeded. Who would you take your advice from if you wanted to evaluate an industry?

sorry for not being explicitly clear Mookie. What i meant by the “goal” of financial security versus insecurity was more of long term view. Based on the bureau of labor’s own statistics of the people in this country who began working at at least age 25: 1 is wealth, 4 have enough money to retire and 63 depend on social security or charity and 29 are deceased. So again i apologize for not stating what i meant by “goal”. In my opinion traditional jobs do not offer long term security for most.
February 27, 2010 at 10:47 am
And I wont even mention your third point vivabiz because a claim such as” 90% of people that have jobs lose tens of thousands of dollars because of that job” is absolutely ridiculous and i couldnt even imagine trying to think of even 1 way you lose money when you are working for someone for a pay.. how does the money per hour your making become a negative tens of thousands of dollars… please explain?
February 27, 2010 at 11:32 am
rivenfire you have big problems organizing your sentences im sorry to tell you this but this is not understandable
“A job if your goal is financial insecurity. A job is insufficient if your job is financial security.”
you are saying a job is good if your goal is financial insecurity but then that the job is insufficient if it iS financial security??
This is a great example of the abuse MLM does.
Recruiting you must have been easy Rivenfire..

Second of all, to join MLM you need to invest money and buy the product to be able to show people and even to buy the product for yourself and for samples.
Therefore, when you give it out a bunch of samples (like every distributor has to do to show people) and at the same time are spending a lot of time organizing, that totals quit a bit of time and money lost if you cant sign up people and dont have the training.. think about that
February 27, 2010 at 12:28 pm
i guess it falls on me to clarify your claims. First of all, MLM does not pay you per hour, therefore a lot of hours you invest are potentially worth money (say if you had a real job).
February 27, 2010 at 12:31 pm
see this is the problem here. MLM distributors listen to brainwashers like tim sales does who make tell their distributors fake bullshit lies so the product sells better and because the fact is you could not (even if you wanted) control what distributors say. thats the whole point, they tell you bullshit such as in MLM you lose nothing and in real jobs 90% of the people lose tens of thousands of dollars…. do you not see how dumb that sounds?? do you not understand dumb statements to trick you?

Por favor!! algún alma caritativa que subtitule este video?? necesito taanto este video subtitulado…!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!
February 27, 2010 at 1:58 pm
Not bad
February 27, 2010 at 2:02 pm
ANOTHER absurd notion. How many people own refrigerators? Well then why do refridgerators continue to sell more every year? there is simply NO SUCH THING AS MARKET SATURATION! By the way this was stated by the judge in a case where ignorant fools like you tried to sue AMWAY 19 years ago based on just such ridiculous logic.
February 27, 2010 at 2:59 pm
How ignorant is that! FAILING in your mind means having a bottle of product left over after you did nothing and simply wanted to BLAME someone for your own lack of dedication. “just finish the BOTTLE!” When someone “fails” in MLM you lose nothing and have a Huge potential – as opposed to “failing” in any other business, which by the way 90% of people do in EVEYTHING – and then lose thousands if not tens of thousands. Ignorant fools like you. “Straining at gnats and swallowing camels”.
February 27, 2010 at 3:42 pm
Sorry. You join an MLM you will FAIL or QUIT. In the meantime, you will alienate everyone that you know. They will run when they see you coming !!!
Also, consider that most MLMs attract religious nutjobs. Do you want to be in that kind of business?
February 27, 2010 at 4:12 pm
The majority of people fail in MLM because of one cold, hard truth: Market Saturation. Ever taken an economics course? They are doomed to fail in MLM because there are too many other people out there doing the same thing they are doing. Its pretty scary, if you think about it.
February 27, 2010 at 4:24 pm
Tim is one of the best fail person.
He love his boss so much better than his family
LOL!
February 27, 2010 at 4:24 pm
You may succeed but at the same time you will be commercializing your family and friend relationships. What’s it worth to you?
