What do you guys think about this?

I have not tried this, and I have no intentions of trying it.

It sounds like it could get you into a lot of trouble.

Here's the link, read carefully. This is not advertisement, I am just wondering what you guys think about this? I personally cant believe that they put this out there.

It cant be legal.

It's just a friggin' digitalized pyramid scheme. Not legal.

I didnt think that it could possibly be legal.

Just wanted to know what you guys thought about such things, I think its just sick that this stuff goes on, and people participate without knowing that they are doing wrong.

I didn't think that you'd think that I'd think that you thought it'd be legal.

I just wanted to give it a name. And any sensible person should realize that only the top 10% profit from this model. The bottom 90% get screwed. And that's assuming it doesn't collapse before you've swindled the entire world population.

People that fall for this kind of scheme are only driven by one thing, and that’s quick and easy money. I know sadly enough of people that have lost big money on pyramid schemes, even after I have had a serious talk with them and explained how it works. They found out when it was too late.

SO STAY AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Stick to hard honest work and be proud of yourself.
There is no problem that cannot be solved by the use of high explosives.

I think it's just the blatant lies, not even clever just pathetic. Like someone peeing on your shoes and telling you it's raining.
