My heart goes out to your cousin and his/her family. I've encountered AppCo before and I can feel the sleaze oozing off their sleeves. I even went for their "interview" before. That's when I saw the dreaded morning "let's all sing and dance before we go to work" routine. That image is burned into my memory and I will be forever haunted by that.

Since then, I've had 2 friends close to me approach me for MLM-type business "opportunities". They prey on people like me and I wish they'd stop taking all my friends away from me. It's so cruel.
