You just can't keep adding levels to the bottom.
There is a finite number of people, but you dont expect a 100% success rate. That's like saying McDonalds expects everyone in the world to eat at least one hamburger from them a year.

My mom is involved in one and has been for a couple of years. She's one level below the 'big money.' I think if you're a good salesman and by that I mean you are good at identifying win win situations with your product and service with people, and you're good with systems thinking, you can succeed with just a consistent effort. If you just try to push it on anyone or try to micromanage everything, i think you have a lot of learning to do before success in an MLM.
