What are some of the best hypocrisies/claims made in mlm?

1-How about its just like any other business...such as buying a franchise - except when you ask to see their income from mlm (or even their upline who supposedly are successful) its suddenly personal income and none of your business. As if you would ever buy a franchise without looking at the working numbers of the same franchise in other locations. 2-How about "its a ground floor opportunity" or "the time will never be the same to get involved" yet on the other hand the entire compensation plan is for people to be continually signing up forever, with it being geometric so 2, 3, 5 years from now, there will need to be exponentially more people needed to be coming in to continue the same oppotunity...but somehow the opportunity is better now than it will be in the future! 3-How about MLM has a system that cuts out the middle man and advertising costs, yet now several layers of people get paid and MLM products are always more expensive than market. Tons more. Let's hear 'em... haha...i don't know if its "hypocritical" per se...but this first answer sure is a testament to the mind set of the MLMer. Every second they get, they are always pitching their MLM bullsh*t. LOL. I post a question about hypocrites in MLM and the first post in someone pitching me their MLM. Man, no wonder MLM has such a bad rep...let it go! Priceless. Mexico4me: Thanks for your amusing response. Why would I have interested in a business that is set up to fail. Anyone with common sense knows that a geometrically growing network, even 2x2, eventually gets so large its unsustainable. You call that residual income...gimme a break. Obvious I subscribe to a 45 year plan? Nice work, but your ignorance is showing. Would it kill you to even look at my profile first before making assumption. I am a real estate investor by trade and live off income from apartment buildings. You talk of residual income as though an mlm business actually provides such...but you are dependent on the hope that your downline continues to grow at unrealistic rates, where I, as a real estate investor, am merely dependent on people needing a placer to live. Rants about MLM? Get a clue...i posted a question in regard to the amusing statements you always hear associated with MLM and you get overly defensive....pahleeeeze!

2. The most significant one is that you will make tons of $$$ with little or no effort. I happen to be involved in 2 very reputable opportunities and the key reason I signed with each is they were straight with me about the income. Lots of time and energy=lots of income, little time and energy =little income, no time or energy = no income. Any MLM or other business opportunity that tells you anything else, run away screaming...
3. Okay, you have obviously had no luck with MLM and my guess is you were ridiculed by your friends and family for pushing whatever product you had and now you've made it your mission to tear MLM to shreds. Which is your right to do, but unfortunately you have your facts all wrong.....unless of course, you were involved with a scam company and didn't do your homework first to see if they were a reputable company and didn't compare their compensation plan to others. Not sure where you get the idea that MLM products are always more expensive than others. Some are, for sure. But many products in stores are grossly overpriced as well, I can list examples if you like. You also have no comprehension of momentum....or hyper-growth as some call it. This has been in effect for each and every company out there be it MLM or conventional sales. Every company either experiences momentum or dies. Period. That is why many companies never make it through the first 3 years. I also see you don't understand leverage or residual income, because if you did, you would never be on here making these ridiculous statements, instead you would be applying these very simple principles to your own life and making more money than you ever had before. It's obvious you subscribe to the 45 year plan...where you start a career at 20 years old, work until you're 65, then retire and expect the government to look after you, never taking control of your finances and securing your income right through your retirement... That's fine for you, but your rants about MLM and knocking everything we do are starting to get really old. I don't come to your work and knock what you do, so leave my industry alone, especially now that you've proven you really don't know what you are talking about. Thank You.
4. This question is a prime example of the MLM mentality. The first 2 answers are MLMers oblivious to everything except trying to turn you into their next prospect. The third answer, overly defensive about his MLM, used a full strawman argument to try to make his point making assumptions about you and then arguing against them. Suddenly everyone who doesn't like MLM is someone who must "subscribe to the 45 year plan...where you start a career at 20 years old, work until you're 65". To anyone in the MLM cult, there is only one business, and if you are noy in MLM then you must be a wage slave. Yeah, no one outside of MLM is in business...lol. Other hypocrisies? How about MLM is the easiest business opportunity in the world, that is until you ask them about their dismal failure rate and then suddenly MLM is what you make of it and most people will fail. How about the MLM permits you to grow at any rate you want...although if you sponsor 5 people who do the same, on your 14th level you would have over 6 billion people. Nearly all in MLM will speak so highly of their compensation plan and flash it around all the time yet never once do the simple math. So they tell you that growth is achievable, but show them the math and suddenly that growth is not "essential". Oh how i pity those who are in MLM. They are a group of decent people who wish to do well but are so misguided. In MLM you have people who are just looking for a way to make it big but want to believe in anything that will help them achieve that goal that they convince themselves that MLM will work and overlook the facts. The only way to win in MLM is to be a saleperson and sell the products and perhaps sponsor some other salespeople from time to time. If your goal in MLM is to make most of your money by sponsoring other people, you are a fool.
