I don’t know if I can do this, but it does say you can talk about anything and I have heard you guys taking about never having money for the windstones you want… anyway I found a home based business that I am trying out which has got me really excited and I think will work really well for me… I just thought I would tell you guys about it and if you guys are interested I can have some info mailed to you so you can take a look… and yes it is a pyramid structure… but if the will is there anyone can make it work for them…
Snowball-style business practices are illegal over here, but I’m still curious. Not for the money, just to know. Do you have any links?
There’s some sort of a fineline between what, how, and which ones are legal over her. For the Most part they are illigal, but then there’s Avon which is basically one but perfectly legal. 😯

I know them, and they’re like a bad word in economics over here. No touching that. 😯 Totally illegal.

Isn’t that the one that has ephedrine (which is simular to amphetamines)in it? There was a supplemetal pill that I was taking (can’t remember the name), but my doctor told me to stop taking it because it caused strokes and heart attacks.
I have tried selling Mary Kay, but I determined that I wasn’t good at it so I stopped. I hope you have good luck with it tho.
That’s right – good luck to you, TC. If we see your name as winner on half the Windstone auctions we’ll know how and why. 😛

I have no idea about the Pampered chef, I’ve never heard of it before. A Pyramid is basically that for every one you hook up into “The Company” you get paid, and for everyone they hook up you also get paid and so one.
Avon dealers get a % of every sale, but the Avon dealer who hooked that dealer up also gets a percent of that sale. See if this can explain, but I’m not Extrapolating to much!
Avon #1 get’s money from their sales, and hooks Avon #2 & Avon #3 up
Avon #2 Get’s money from their sales and a portion of their sales goes to Avon #1, They also hook up Avon #4 and Avon #5.
Avon #4 Get’s money from their sales and a portion of their sales goes to Avon #2 and Avon #1, They also hook up Avon #6 & Avon #7.
Avon #6 Get’s money from their sales and a portion of their sales goes to Avon #4, Avon #2 and Avon #1, They also hook up Avon #8 and Avon #9…..
And so on, Eventually if every Avon #? get’s 2 people hooked up and down the line eventually Avon #1 doesn’t actually have to sell anything to actually make their $$ just sit there and take a fair sized chunk from every one else.
Avon’s a Pyramid scheme that gets REALLY mad at you when you see through their Guise!!
😈That’s why the system is illegal over here. The tops guys make big bucks and the little guys make nothing, even lose. I say it’s none of the government’s business, but whatever.
i never knew that about avon! i always thought, you just start selling it and you make a profit off of what you sell yourself and nothing more. how does the newest person make any money if everyone else is taking a cut???
the only thing i really know about pampered chef is (a) they are really expensive and (b) you throw parties to sell it, like tupperware.
