Oh please!

It sounds more like John ruined John's life. His single-minded devotion to MLM was how it happened. Life is about balance. John didn't balance his life. This is just like someone who works 80 hours a week at their job, and then blames their job for being divorced, having poor health, or whatever other consequences may have arisen.

As long as John feels he is a victim of MLM, he'll never truly be in charge of his life. John chose to join an MLM. John chose not to research the MLM in question. John chose to follow questionable advice from his upline. John might have chosen to pester family and friends until neither would have anything to do with him. John chose to spend more money than was prudent on the MLM he was pursuing. Nobody put a gun to John's head and made him do all those things. John made bad choices. Why is he blaming the MLM?

Don't get me wrong. I don't think MLM is a good idea for the vast majority of people. Very few people are really good at sales and the products/services tend to be over-priced (making them an even tougher sell). I just really get irked by people not taking responsibility for their lives.

People make bad choices. That's part of life. Smart people learn from those bad choices and don't make them again. Others throw blame around and keep making bad choices.

You should read a little more of my blog before you judge me.

I wish you the best of luck.
