text: Maybe.  It's feasible if 1) you like HOW they market, 2) you follow their process.  The critical part of any MLM is to get people to do the same thing over and over again.  This usually means there are a lot of rallys and sometimes inauthentic pep talks.  What's happening is people are replacing what large corporations have to pay to accomplish.  So, if I were Nestle, I'd have a very large marketing and advertisiting budget to tell people to buy Nestle Hot Chocolate.  But, if I'm Stevens, I get a bunch of people to tell their friends and family tht this is the best hot chocolate made in the world.  If I were to trade my time to do that, I'd get paid for that.  I'd also get paid for anyone else I've gotten to do that with me.  \n\nSo, it makes sense.  It works, if you work it.  What are the drawbacks?  I've looked into a few, and found that I can't keep my dignity and do these things.  I am a thinking person, and thinking is not allowed with these groups.  They want you to follow the formula, kind of like a drone in a bee hive. \n\nAlso, a lot of these groups don't have a lot of credibility.  Face it, you hang out with a lot of people that are kind of like you.  In an MLM, a lot of people aren't like you.  When you bring people like you to meet with people not like you, they wonder if you're like them.  In a typical business arrangement, Nordstrom shoppers don't mix with thrift store shoppers, and so nobody questions whether the store can meet their needs.  MLMs mix up the people in a way that favors people who believe in the lottery, but don't invest in their own education.  \n\nLast thought: I know a lot of dignified and successful people who have worked in MLMs.  Some of these have incredible wealth, and they did it on the merits of their labor, not on anything else.  It's a way to level the playing field.  \n\nWhatever you decide, good luck
