re: MLM - friends that push that crap on you aren’t friends but snakes.

Haven’t talked since. It sounds petty but I felt borderline betrayed and couldn’t believe a “friend” would try to make a buck on us knowing we were in a tough spot.

First off what he did is beyond crappy, and I'm sorry to hear that.....but imagine what a shitty state they are in. You just know they are way in over their heads with whatever racket this is and this was one of many desperation moves.

Penn and teller do a show called bullshite about various topics and one was on MLM, and it was so fricking depressing. These people are absolutely drowning and just wreak of desperation to find a way out.

By far the most pathetic was one that was "man themed". This poor schmuck got conned into buying all this product geared toward dudes and told he would sell it like crazy. Just had to host parties. So he has to buy all the meat and all the beer for these parties and as you can imagine no dude at a cook out wants to buy his shite.
