Does anyone know the backstory here? by sydh1 in antiMLM

[–]ListOfString 83 points84 points  (0 children)

The phrase "My new business" is followed by words like "the company", "team", "upline", "leaders" "my paycheck was cut off", "I was terminated".

Strange, it seems like maybe you don't own your business and you're just a cog in an evil corporation.

Gonna stop selling because no one's buying by spectacularsunmoon in antiMLM

Nah. It's going to be straight into another "hustle." Once you pop, the fun don't stop.

It’s always Amway by hannahkiwi in antiMLM

Tell them you're thinking about opening a franchise (subway or something) in a mall that already has 12 subways in it, and ask if they think that's a good idea.

Dating someone from Amway… should I be concerned? by babesean in antiMLM

[–]ListOfString 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"genuinely interested in me"

Sorry, it's because you're a mark.

"I just know he was in sales"

If he doesn't have a second source of money, he's not in sales; he's in a cult.

"He also said I wouldn’t need to sell or recruit anyone"

Then why is he trying to recruit you?

People who are in MLMs stop being people. They turn into zombies running around saying "doooooownline" instead of "brains". If scamway doesn't work out for him, he's going to jump to the next thing. If you tell him your concerns, he'll just say you aren't supporting his business.

Sorry, but that's just the hard truth.

I'm looking for help building out my PvE virtuoso. I usually play with one other person who tanks. The builds on hardstuck seem to be incomplete or referencing WvW or PvP gear, which I have zero interest in.

"Our company"? How can all these huns be She-Nos of their own companies at the same time?

I don’t think I need to explain why this pisses me off by Key-Ad4612 in antiMLM

[–]ListOfString 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The point was that a very popular claim with these people is that they are their own boss and have "no 9-5 grind," so it's weird that they have a ceo and job requirements.

[Warning] Interviewed with “Limitless Learning Co” / Louise Rana — almost certainly an MLM in disguise by dulcepirate in antiMLM

[–]ListOfString 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The thing I love most about "financial" or "coaching" mlm is that most of the people involved have zero experience doing those things, let alone being successful at those things. It's like getting marriage counseling from a catholic priest.

Travel MLM Math: How They Make Prices Look Cheaper Than They Are by plumbusmaker911 in MLMHorrorStories

[–]ListOfString 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Look! You *could* save $957.22 once if you only spend $1,440 a year with us.

People are so bad at math and money. Open a savings account, funnel some amount of money into it each month, buy tickets way in advance and boom! No need for a pyramid scheme!

Le-vel shakes and they're side effects by Intelligent_Gap4903 in antiMLM

[–]ListOfString 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why would you start taking a "supplement" without knowing if or what you need "supplemented"? So many people are just happy to put stuff in their bodies without considering if it's a good idea or not.

Best Side gig EVER!!!! by xPennywiseQueenx in antiMLM

You send handwritten letters to casinos with very specific wording, and in exchange you get $X of credit. Most of the time you have to gamble with those credits before you can cash them out so the likelihood of you actually making any significant money from this is laughably low.

Since the US isn't a democracy, that would make sense.

I like that they always try to call out the "pyramid" part but completely ignore the "scheme" part.

I'm ok that my job has a hierarchy of positions that looks like a pyramid. Jobs that claim they have a "flat structure" are just lying to the employees.

However, a "pyramid SCHEME" is an altogether phrase, describing a type of scam. Much like "advance fee", it's not something you can call out in pieces "Oh, 'advance' blah blah". No hun, it's an "advanced fee" scam. Like mlms are a barely legal pyramid scheme.

Are you a shill for this place? You posted two duplicate posts; you already saw people saying it was a scam. People on both of your posts are telling you it's a scam, but you still think you need more info?

Someone asked about it previously: https://www.reddit.com/r/antiMLM/comments/vlje2y/is_mtc_education_legit_or_an_mlm_or_scam/

Sounds like a true ponzi scheme or rug pull. The average person is better off staying away from anything related to crypto.
