I am actually surprised, that Steve has never mentioned MLM opportunities, though he writes a lot about entrepreneurship.
(no, i do not work in MLM. I had an experience in an MLM company a couple years ago, and it was quite positive.) |
Just my personal opinion....I don't like MLM at all. I've known a lot of people who have done them but I've never seen anyone who is very successful at it.
That issue aside, I personally would not get involved for the simple fact that you don't have a lot of control over what you are selling or marketing. If I'm going to build a long term business, I want more control over what I offer and how I offer it. MLM takes a LOT of work...if I'm going to put that much work into something, I want it to have more "ownership" of what I'm doing.
Some people swear by MLM and I'm sure you can make a good living if you put the effort into it, but it's just not for me for those reasons.
Also, I want to do things that will ultimately allow me to fulfill more of a purpose and pursue my passions in life.
