Is It A Pyramid Scheme?

Pyramid schemes are generally defined – and so I quote from Pyramid Scheme on Wikipedia:

“A pyramid scheme is a non sustainable, business model that involves promising participants payment, services or ideals, primarily for enrolling other people into the scheme or training them to take part, rather than supplying any real investment or sale of products or services to the public.”

The cartoon video here made me chuckle because it is easy to align many things we take for granted in life to the concept of a ‘pyramid scheme‘ even though they are perfectly legitimate.

Look at your office environment structure. At the very top getting LOTS of money are the shareholders and the top bosses. Several widening layers of types of managers follow – and then there are all the underlings beavering away for an existence wage or salary.

The lottery systems in every country in the world – dubious? They entice lots of people to part with money for a numbers on piece of paper where only a few can benefit from the product – a large win!

So it prompted me to double check that the 3 MAIN business opportunities I am spending my hours online promoting are in fact legitimate business proposals.

F5M – sustainable. 20 years and still expanding ..

F5M Millionaires Club product is a wealth membership program created and run by Internet entrepreneur John Kielec to help people make successful livings online no matter what level of income or experience they are starting with. This program provides members with a system for making money online as well as mentorship, support, tools and resources for helping them along the way.

The F5M system seems complicated at first, but once understood there is no program online that can match it. However it is NOT a “get rich quick program”. The owner John Kielec is very specific that results come from your desire, action, and using the tools provided. If you do not like the hard work necessary to get wealthy on the internet – don’t join this. Personally, I’m happy to do the hard work over a period of time (2 – 5 years) and be wealthier than I am already! :lol:

Be an affiliate and start spreading the word.
