Oh the irony of multi-level marketers
It’s a little difficult to read, but that posh, Geo Prism promises you can make $20k a month while working from home. Now I understand a lot of millionaires drive run-down cars, because cars are a lousy investment. But something tells me this guy isn’t a millionaire (hint: it’s the tasteless ad written in long hand).

I still laugh every time I think about it. If your car is your rolling advertisement, make it at least a Buick.
MLM: “No, seriously, Blake. This is definitely not a get-rich-quick scheme.”
Smooth Harold: “Oh, really? Then prove it.”
MLM: “Here – look at my checking account balance over the past several months. See? I am obviously not getting rich quick.”
Smooth Harold: “Hmmm…you do have a point. So this is more like an outrageous investment in the possibility of potential future mediocre income?”
MLM: “Absolutely. I mean, the numbers don’t lie. Right?”
Smooth Harold: “Sounds great. Sign me up for 20 cases of the soap. And I think with the help of my wife and two small children, we should be able to stuff 20,000 envelopes each week. (Turns to wife, eyes filled with hope) Don’t you think, honey?”

Smooth Harold: “Honey? Come back! We both need to sign these papers!”
It’s scary how much you know about the MLM process, Alan. 🙂
