Sadly, all quite true. Although I am still in AMWAY, I never did like the rallies, etc. On PBS recently there was a writer who investigated most of the MLM companies (Multi-Level-Marketing) of which AMWAY is one, HERBALIFE, et al. His conclusion is that unless you are a natural or gifted salesperson YOU WON'T DO WELL IN THE MLM SCHEME. I don't recall the book, but it should be in the stores presently, and it sounds like good advice.. -- ------------------------------------------------ - jerry University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Computing Services Division ihnp4!uwmcsd1!jerry uwmcsd1!jerry@wisc-rsch.ARPA "HALT, or you will exterminateeedddd......" | | |-------> sound of generic DALEK fadeout ...
