re: Can you talk a friend out of Plexus?

I have neighbors who have wives in to this nonsense. Just let it run it's course.

he quit his job over a year ago and now has a new house, and a brand new Dodge Durango, so obviously he's making money..

Or he's mortgaged and financed to the hilt with shite he can't afford

My best friend is doing something like this.. he quit his job over a year ago and now has a new house, and a brand new Dodge Durango, so obviously he's making money.. something just doesn't feel right about these types of companies though and I hope it doesn't all blow up in his face

There's always a story like this. Supposedly her friend made $300,000.00 last year alone selling just Plexus!

You can't tell people they shouldn't fall for these scams. You might as well just walk right up to them and tell them they're fricking stupid.

Calm down, snowflake

Only thing you can do is avoid being a source of "loans" when it all comes crashing down. Wife has a friend who swore by the stuff. Even gave my wife some to try for free to try to lure her in (the old drug dealer trick). Wife luckily saw no effects of the koolaid and didn't even finish the free supply. Girl tried desperately to get my wife to get in on the scheme and talked about all the money she was making, still while living in a trailer and literally driving a broken down car. A couple months pass and she starts calling my wife again literally begging for a loan to pay her trailer rent.

Bonus question: Is selling Plexus trashy?

Another ploy they use to trick people.

That 300,000 is likely volume sold and not profit.

Amway idiots use this trick all the time. Say they made $100,000 last year on Amway. They may have sold $100,000 in product but they never tell you the cost of goods sold. How much was their business expenses - inventory, gas used to drive around, tool costs, function costs, and so on.

Guy who wrote Merchants of Deception sold $500k worth of product every year but his operating net profit was about $32k. He busted his arse like crazy, quit his job and all to make $32k.

this friend of mine is very wealthy. Her husband, also my friend is a very hard worker and has built a successful business from the ground up. I just hope this doesn't some day jeopardize his well earned wealth.

It will

My family is first hand evidence of how MLMs can ruin a family. My dad had a really good job when i was little yet got too deep in Amway.

I blame Amway for my parents getting divorced too.

frick that company. Major reason why i hated Trump picking Betsy DeVos in his cabinet.
