in an effort to boost income, my wife and I joined Shaklee some time back.
we found their products excellent in quality, and only occasionally overpriced.
because doing it as a business consumed more time than we cared to allot (we
are very family-activity oriented) and maybe because we weren't being very
succesful (despite fair $$ and time investment), we quit the business end.
	i am acquainted with folk in Amway, Nature's Sunshine, Pro-Vita,
Tupperware, et al.  they are all reputable.  they all use roughly the same
multi-level marketing arrangement.
	unfortunately, there are many, many organizations that are not.  always
check with the Better Business Bureau in your area and in the area where the
organization is headquartered.
