MLMs: I Don't Like Pyramid(s) (Schemes).

Multi-Level Marketing (MLM) Pyramid 
Hi there.

Just a quick write up on MLMs (Multi-Level Marketing). It starts with someone well dressed and looking successful walking up to you, and they are telling you: 'You too can make a lot of money and live the life you have always dreamed of.' They show you pictures of exotic locations, 3-storey houses and luxury cars; you can't help but imagine yourself in those pictures smiling proudly. They finally show you that triangle pictograph with you sitting on top of a pyramid of your friends/network, with dollar signs 'arrowed' to you. But what they don't show you is the giant network of people sitting on your head. 

Welcome to the 'shell' of Multi-Level Marketing.

What I would do with Twenty Million Dollars ($20m)



Yes, Twenty Million Dollars. It’s a good round figure. Besides, don't you know the dream of living on one million dollars is so 90s.

I can’t remember when exactly but I saw a news piece on an international news channel talking about the 'new' rich in either the UK or US. They said living like a millionaire with 1 million was possible in the 80s but for the 2000s you need approx. 2 million to live the millionaire life style..... for a short while.


But think about it, this is the age of billionaires, 500ft Yachts, Gulf Stream private jets, owning a island or two, owning a major sports team etc. Millionaires are almost insignificant in all this displays of luxury.

Anyway, I digress. How would I spend $20million? Depends on what I love. First of all, I would start small; with the basic things I need sorry, want.
