  • The money makes itself! It’s impossible to not make money with this system!
  • You get to be the boss!
  • If you’re not making money, you must be doing it wrong — my (paid) training course can help
  • Heaps of unsold product rotting in garage/warehouse
  • Religious-coded language
  • Requires infinite growth to stay profitable for all current players
  • FOMO, “getting in on the ground floor”
  • Mid-levels taking huge financial risks to onboard more down-levels
And those same people were doing the same thing with crypto 5 years ago.
