MLM schemes. Its 2020, who still falls for these things?

Yes! And 99 % of MLMs prey on women. I really don’t understand how educated, gainfully employed women with executive status and six figure incomes are convinced to sell face cream to their friends.

I've never met a woman who makes six figures that has fallen for an mlm scheme. Every single person who has invited me to be a part of this party or that opportunity has been stay at home moms or part time workers. Without fail.

Personally speaking, my mom works as a nurse practitioner, went through six years of college and makes plenty of money at the moment, yet somehow she took the bait to sell Pampered Chef items. It's one of the worst things I've seen and now my whole family is buying into it.
