💥“All those online pyramid schemes are cults.”💥
That was an actual quote from a dinner party last weekend (let’s just say it was eventful🤭).
One woman there had been in a real cult for 14 years. So naturally, the conversation became interesting!
At one point, a man blurted out: “All those online pyramid schemes are cults.”
So of course, I had to question him🙃
🔹Tell me more! What do you mean?
🔹 What do you think a pyramid scheme is?
🔹 Why do you think they're cult-like?
He didn't know that pyramid schemes are actually illegal & don't involve selling physical products. So often, people confuse network marketing with pyramid schemes.
I get it—there are so many scams online & you’ve gotta have your wits about you. But that doesn’t mean everything online is a scam. I'm in affiliate-network marketing, which means I'm partnered with a company that makes some of the highest quality health & wellness products. And with our patented compensation plan, you can actually out earn your upline.
The woman went on to say: “Cults are run by psychopaths who often inflict emotional or physical abuse & cut you off from your outside world.”
I couldn’t help but laugh a little because the leaders in our community are some of the kindest, most grounded, down-to-earth people I’ve ever met🫶🏼 And I'm certainly still spending time with family & friends & living my life exactly as I choose! Not only that, I've met so many incredible women who have similar goals, are building something for themselves/ their families, and who are creating lives they love while lifting each other up every step of the way✨
So, what do you think—did I join a cult??😉 Even if you think I did, I'm not mad about it🤭
