Please add a "business opportunities" subforum

I come here to be inspired and to get and share advice. I don't want to know how many people are offering the next big thing that will let me make 8mil$ from home in my boxers. I have my ideas, I want to discuss them and get some advice while answering other people's questions.

Can we create either a new section or a subforum for all the threads that just hawk a new MLM scheme, or ban them altogether? We're here to learn to be entrepreneurs not marks.

Come on, let's be classier than that.

Ok, well I spotted a subforum that matches that. I guess we had it already, but I just wish it was more heavily enforced.

I actually think this forum is pretty good compared to many others. Most people offer legit advice and dont just try to sell their products. We are allowed to put our links and ads in our signitures so there is no reason to spam.

oh, yea. I like the forum a lot. It's a lot better than the others out there, which is why im willing to stick around and make recommendations and critiques.

MLM is here to stay and it is a form of entrepreneurism so deal with it. The MLM industry is not a scheme...check out the website to see who says MLM is legal.

www.FirstClassMLM.com (what MLM is and what it isn't)

And how classy is it to to just criticize and complain? It is not up for debate, MLM is legitimate and you can't stop it!!!

It's okay to raise children with Xbox and PlayStations, it's okay to eat foods that make Americans obese, sicker and more disease prone than any other culture, it's ok to idolize Britney Spears and other pop stars...but MLM is somehow something people should stay away from? Crazy...there are products that are manufactured by many MLM companies that could extend your life by a decade or two and you want to trash talk them? These products are ten times better than what you can find in any retail channel. Remember, there are many MLM companies that generate half a billion dollars or more in annual revenue. Maybe you should consider starting up a MLM company some day since you're so smart. Nothing is more powerful than word of mouth advertising. That's why no matter how many people have negative things to say about MLM, there are millions of us in the United States alone who continue to pursue Network Marketing businesses. The numbers are growing every time someone wants to make a negative comment. You naysayers just FUEL THE FIRE that's all!!! Keep bringing it! You have started the process of MLMers uniting together and we will not back down.

Why would anyone take your advice about MLM when Donald Trump and Robert Kiyosaki are recommending it? Who wants to listen to people who have no money and who complain about things? Did you ever think of that? Rich people aren't stupid, a lot of them are part of Network Marketing because of the time freedom and leveraged income it provides. What about real estate? Who wants to own a $150,000 home that produces $200 in monthly net rental income (if that) when you can own a Network Marketing business for less than $1,000 and generate $200 in monthly income while having the benefits of a business owner...tax deductible business expenses? Did you know that you can get involved with Netowork Marketing/MLM/Home-Based Business and save yourself a bunch of money in income taxes? But no...just sit there and talk trash about the industry and complain about gas prices.

I'm glad you enjoy your lifestyle and like to criticize MLMers. It just shows you're part of the masses and want to be on their bandwagon...might as well go get a job and forget about being an entrepreneur. I know you haven't really researched the MLM model because if you did, you wouldn't be saying such things. Some people will never know both sides of this MLM being legal vs. illegal...that's unfortunate because the very business that could make them fortunes will end up making them continue their journey through the rat race...ouch! Assumptions and heresay but never research. Take advice from grumpy people who tried and failed. That's how you should live life...just take advice from failures and forget about seeking specialized knowledge.
