Yeah. I was in college working my regular job and some guy invited me to a seminar. They showed me clips of people with boats, hummers and big beach houses. Once I learned I had to buy stuff to "start my own business" and recruit a bunch of other shlubs I walked away. What's sad is that they have once a month events (for which I was going to have to call off 3 day weekends XD) where they rent out places like sports arenas, make you buy a ticket and sit for hours to listen to their mentors tell you to buy their books and other junk. I watched a video about the company the night I came back from the seminar. I told the guy that tried to recruit me to watch it, but he unfortunately refused. The video is a dateline investigation, it's pretty shady what they do. I'm not sure if it's even a thing anymore, but here's the link if anyone's interested in the story.

It sure is a good thing that the founder of Amway's progeny is running the nation's education department now. *sarcasm fully intended.*
