    When somebody asks me to join their MLM

    FUNNY 
    Yep. It's insane how much they indoctrinate their participants. I had a friend who was doing it. Worked his a$$ off trying to recruit me because he genuinely believed that he was doing me a huge favor by getting me in, helping me achieve financial freedom. He had a list of people on his desk at...

    Yep it's a scary idea sometimes but I think if you satisfy the 5 commandments you're ahead of 75% of the people. Have an honest conversation with yourself about whether you know there is a validated need, barriers to entry, control, scalability, and time separation. Most people don't have honest...

    I could possibly see it - many franchises exist because there is a customer need and the franchise will analyze an area before opening there. I'm in the "affiliated dealer" business currently and we do similar things. Also lots of marketing and operational support. That being said, you may...

    Awesome post! Thanks for all the great info. It is starting to sound like it really is a problem of chasing needs, which in then should lead to cash flow, keeping expenses down, etc. My industry is internet based and minimal expenses- I can't imagine how daunting it is to your clients who take...

    Great feedback. I've always pondered this question as well in the startup community - you hear a lot of people say "fail fast" or "you need 1 or 2 big failures" as if failing a business should count. It doesn't, your business fails because it's flawed and based on your desire to make money. I...

    Great feedback thank you. Regardless of how confident I want to be, it's daunting to hear figures like this when you put in the prep work about how so many people fail and I figured like you said it's a lot of people with no idea, no plan, etc Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Had to google that one But interesting read! Thanks. I've seen this happen a lot- our graphic designer left last year to start her own graphic design company and it was just "Kate's design".... Just a technical person trying to make money doing their technical skill and it never lasts. Sent...

    I was curious to just garner some opinions on this topic. I'm a successful 25 year old business person, I've work in sales and marketing and understand hard work and persistence - branding a product properly and hitting the ground to sell the crap out of it, dealing with rejection. I'm leaving...

    My business is finally, slowly taking off and although I don't have the cash yet to fully fund my money tree- I want to start looking at the long term financial aspect of my life. In mj's book he talks about creating a money tree in government (or other) bonds that yields monthly payments at 5%...

    Can't stand this fantastic cushion I'm sitting on

    INTRO 
    Way to go man!! Keep at the grind and do what you can to automate your system so you can continue selling in your off-time. I've had friends who worked government and hate it. Again it's a cozy life, nice retirement, lots of perks and benefits but not overly rewarding or competitive. Sent from...
