Browsing through the web late at night and i came across this one..

Talking about MLM, i have friends who joined this LB thingy and they were bragging about themselves. Saying how much are their teamwork and bla bla bla. I even joined them for their meetings. Boy, they acted like they are doing a mission impossible. With laptops and suitcases in a cafe, all dressed formally. A gal from that team called me to join them. So, i joined their discussion. Look professional from the outside, but not so sure for their inside. So finally, a couple who is doing LB came to my house and talked to my dad. My dad asked him one question. Before he asked him that question, the guy was bragging about his education level. Did a degree overseas which took him 4 years time and he rather choose LB rather than working in his degree field. So my dad asked him, your car (he's driving a Wira), you pay full amount or what? He answered hmm.. through installment. I will manage to pay the full amount of the car in 7 years. What!! You can say you are being successful in LB and you need to pay your car through installment for 7 years. Can you believe it?
Another guy, he said he invested RM 30k into LB, but look at him now. He's only a staff working his ass off in a cyber cafe with an income below RM 2k.
Another friend of mine, called me few months ago, so i asked him how are you and so on.. Came to the question, what are you doing now? He said i joined LB and i'm earning RM 10k a month. I said wah... Okay.. Guess what happened to the guy now? He called me last saturday and i asked again, what are you doing right now??? HE said oh, i'm helping my dad to sell cars. I said what happened to your LB thingy then? He told me he had disagreement with his team. Funny huh? You are earning RM 10k a month and just because of a slighty disagreement with your team and you can just walked off from the money.. Furthermore, the guy just had a form 5 cert.
Another case, happened in my old college. NIC. My bf was recruited by him (a head of department of engineering back then) to join LB. He said he 's gonna quit his job as a head of department with a salary of RM 4k a month to become a full time MLM. Then, he asked my bf to join him. But he did not mention clearly about his plan of recruiting him to join MLM. He just told him that his friend has a company which is very successful now. My bf told me and said the HOD is gonna bring him to see the company one day. Finally, came to that day.. My bf want to bring me along but the HOD do not allow me to follow. So my bf, left me in Midvalley while he followed the HOD back to his home in CHeras. We waited a few hours, then around 7 plus in the evening, my bf called me and asked me to join him in CHeras as the HOD still havent show him the company. Fetch me from Midvalley to Cheras and then left me alone in the HOD apartment while both of them head off to this so called company. My bf just realised then that he's recruiting him to join MLM. SPending hours there and by the time he got back to the apartment, it was already midnight. We were forced to sleepover there. Next time, the HOD really quit his job and work full time MLM. The last time i heard about him, he's back in education line.. WOrking as a small lecturer.
However, my cousin brother is working for MLM company that has to do with coins. Well, seems to me he has been successful. He joined the MLM thingy when he was studying in KL and now, he's a full time MLM. From what i heard, he's earning RM 6-7k a month now.
If you ask me, why i did not join him and i have to bear with my small allowance given by my parents and the hard earned money i earned from my business, i'll say MLM is too risky. For instance, i just joined MLM and i'm trying to recruit downline so i go for my good friend, A. I told her, dont worry.. We sure can make huge money out of this business, all you need to do is just invest RM 2++k into it, then we look for more friends or family members to join us.. As time goes on, we'll be able to buy more expensive clothes and BMWs. Think again..WHat am i dealing with my good friend, A here? I'm dealing with our friendship TRUST!! If the business is good, we enjoy the profit. But what if the business doesnt work out, A is gonna blame me or what?
It's not worthy to sell our trust to one another just for the sake of money. Especially trust that we have build in years. It's too risky for that.. AFterall, our trust to each other only worth RM 2++k? No right?
I;m writing this long, so that people could think probably before they decide whether they want to join the MLM.

i use LB as an example because it is a famous thingy that occurs around us which brought disaster to most of my friends. I heard from my friend who stayed in Banting, he told me dont ever talk about LB in Banting. People just hate it cause it brought so much disaster to people in that area with the idea of fast,easy earning money.. Think wisely before you decide to join this MLM thingy

yes, MLM may earn alot of money if they have many downline. However, if we pursue people around us, asking them to invest in the MLM with an amount roughly about RM 2k, who in the world has that amount of money to invest in something that we cant see the possibility of success? I'm taking LB as an example because people around me talks about LB alot. You see, LB was active in TAR college, Setapak. Luring students to join and then they can expand. These so called upline people only think of money money and money. EVerytime they approach a person who does not have RM 2k to join them, they will pursue that person to ask money from family, borrow from friends or borrow from 'people'. They assure them of success. Well, since they can GUARANTEE them success, why dont they lend the person the money and ask him to return the money when he has earned his money in MLM. Therefore, these uplines are uncertain about the success of those people they lured in. Why take the risk then?
