It only works for the people who work it! People expect too much from nothing
You hit the nail on the head my friend. People lack personal responsibility for their actions. Period. End of story.

People see other people having success and achieving financial freedom in Network Marketing and automatically think it is a piece of cake. The reality is that it is not - it does take real, hard work. However, the distinction is that if you are willing and do put in the sweat equity, you absolutely can get the results you want because you are in complete control

Many just think they can go in, make a conservative effort, and expect their bank accounts to grow overnight and when it doesn't they scream "scam". The only scam is the one committed by the people who pull the sheets over their heads and think they can get microwave results without doing much.

Another thing I crack up about is the people who equate Network Marketing to pyramids. If you have read Kiyosaki's books and in particular the book he co-authored with Trump called "Why We Want You to be Rich", there is a section in which both of them talk about Network Marketing and Kiyosaki lays out the typically corporate structure as being a pyramid. Think about it, one CEO at the top making huge money, with a few VPs under him making a pretty good wage, followed by upper management making a decent wage but less than the VPs. Then you have middle management, making less than upper management but more than the bottom of the pyramid, the worker bees.

I absolutely love that comparison.
