    The Monat girl who said that anyone who gives up on an MLM is lazy TRIGGERED me. I was diagnosed with ADHD at 28 - right in the middle of my time as a Beachbody hun. My coach kept telling me that I wasn’t successful because I wasn’t working hard enough and giving my all. Meanwhile, I was dealing with executive dysfunction, exhaustion from masking all day every day, and a constant state of burnout just from being a person. I still struggle with feeling like I’m lazy when in reality, I’m learning how to work with my brain and not against it - no thanks to the toxic hustle culture of MLMs.

      I’ve been recently diagnosed with ADHD 22 (I’m afab, non binary) and omg I can’t imagine how stressful being in an mlm would be. I could barely hold it together through 5 years of my undergraduate degree… which is structured and probably even less stressful than trying to make it in an mlm. Feeling like everyone else can do it and I can’t would be so amplified in an environment like that, where everyone else is actually trying to seem like they ARE doing it… like I don’t need others to gaslight me when I’m already gaslighting myself 🥲

      I did an MLM for fun with one of my friends, we knew we would not make money. It was Acti Labs, it was actually a really great product. But the copy paste stuff they wanted us to spam our friends and family with was insane. She and I decided to be just personal use. I stopped it after a year. I actually did pretty decent with making money why because I was my biggest customer.

    I am a librarian and last night a patron came in with her daughter looking for books on specific topics for her daughter, not unusual, and could I point her to the sections where she could find all the books on birds, or cats, or seahorses, etc. Of course I could. I took her to the children's nonfiction and showed her the sections, pulled out some highly relevant titles and mentioned we could also search for fiction relating to the subjects and order books from other libraries. This is all very typical of my interactions with patrons, but then she says hmmm, in a dissatisfied sort of way; "Do you have any Usbourne books? They have whole series on topics that my daughter loves, you could fill shelves with them. They are really great."
    Cue internal screaming. I smiled at her and said: "I'm the YA librarian not the children's librarian but I know we don't carry Usbourne books because they are a multilevel marketing company and we don't purchase items from those companies. We get a better deal from our own sources." She stayed for a while as her daughter was busy playing with our dollhouse but she didn't check out a single book. I am pretty certain she came in just to try to sell her MLM products to our children's librarian.

Can you imagine? Of all places, libraries would likely be the last to carry such books, unless maybe someone donated a bunch of them. Even then, I reject donations all the time particularly non-fiction of questionable worth. The last thing I'd want to steer my young patrons toward would be poorly vetted information.

      And wouldn’t it be almost the same cost as the joining costs of the mlm to just have a home hairstyle setup? I got my hair cut in the basement of a family friend until I was like 13 and the scheduling got too complex between her family’s schedule and ours. But my grandma kept going for like another ten years! People she had known forever would get scheduled for times when her kids were home and we’d just play with them until it was our turn. Way easier for my mom than wrangling three little girls in a regular salon!

    The way they say something is a “mortgage bonus” or a “car bonus” cracks me up. It doesn’t pay your mortgage. It doesn’t pay your car note. It’s not enough money for either. It goes TOWARD your bill. It’s just extra money that doesn’t even cover what you’re spending on being in the scheme. 😂 But them saying it’s a MoRtGaGe bOnUs is so silly.

      Looking at it completely objectively, if they were to give their hunbots some incentive masked as a "mortage bonus" for hitting a certain rank, I'd be like, whatever, it's yet another gimmick to convince people to buy and recruit more to hit that rank. But if they require people to buy a *new* house, like they require to buy a new car for the car bonus, boy, it's gonna be a shit show. Even so, I already expect a lot of hunbots, especially those who rent, will dive in head first to buy the house of their dreams that they can't afford, only because they think Le-vel is going to have them covered.

    What you said about people being in to deep to leave was exactly what Roberta Blevins was talking about on her "Life After MLM" podcast yesterday.
    She made an analogy about leaving a MLM to leaving a bad marriage. Sometimes it's not easy to leave... sometimes you can't just wake up one day and say "oh I'm in a bad marriage. I'm going to leave." Then pack a bag and walk out the door. It takes planning and time to "get out".

    Don't forget another caveat is the car bonus is paid with dollars that have not been taxed yet. That monthly $800 shows up as taxable income on your 1099 at the end of the year. When most of us make our mortgage/car payments it's with income that's already had taxes deducted.

    That mortgage bonus sounds scary... the car bonus is already problematic... but imagine being on the line for a HOUSE and relying on your MLM bonus for a house payment? It's not the same as relying on a job for your house. In a job you are paid for the work you do, hourly or salary. The "bonus" is not a performance bonus it is a RESULTS bonus.
    It would only push reps to become even more predatory and manipulative and abusive to their potentials and downlines.

    As a hairstylist for over 15 years now, i can understand where she was when she felt stuck, she needed change, etc. We stylists are often hitting the brick wall of burnout. But MLM isn't the answer. Moving to a new salon, starting a suite salon (which i did last month after hitting a point of no return with coworker drama), taking classes of the new trends and product, going to hair shows. There are ways out of burnout, with plenty of rest and seeking out inspiration. I wish she had chosen differently.

    Hi, mortgage loan officer here. From my perspective, a “mortgage bonus” program sounds totally crazy. That being said, I highly doubt people would be able to afford a house based just off of their MLM revenue in the first place.
    Since it’s 1099 work, they would have to show 2 years of sustainable profit in order to qualify for a mortgage. So this “mortgage bonus” program would have to be just like the car program in which the mlm provides a large bonus check each month.
    People wouldn’t be able to get a mortgage loan based off of this bonus- they would already have to qualify for the home on their own.
    It’s just another marketing tactic that sounds highly desirable to those in the company, but won’t actually allow people to qualify for a first mortgage.

I never had any PTO because I had to take time off a lot to recover from noise defensiveness. Once I started working from home where I could control my environment, I work a lot better, I actually have accrued PTO, and I'm a much better employee because I have more opportunities to rest.

    Offering a mortgage "program" is LAUGHABLE in the current market we're in. Most Americans can't get a conventional loan without having a good to excellent credit score. By that info alone, I bet majority of people in this MLM won't even be able to get pre-approved for a home loan. I guess that's a good thing, though. Saves them from falling into a HUGE pit of debt.

I can still go to an expensive university. because his company makes sure he gets the pay he *deserves,* even when unfortunate circumstances arise.

    Omg tying your mortgage to your MLM sales quota each month is horrifying. If you didn’t make enough sales to hit your mortgage bonus that month then you also didn’t make enough to pay your mortgage. That seems like a double whammy and a really quick way to have your home in foreclosure and your credit ruined. It’s one thing to be stuck with a really high car payment you can’t afford, it’s another to be made homeless. They’re really trying to make the stakes so high you can’t quit until you’ve lost everything
