The MLM industry is like any other- there are good people and bad people, good companies and bad companies, legitimate opportunities for success and outright unethical deals.This book is extremely one-sided and bitter. I know people that have failed in all sorts of mainstream businesses, I suggest the author look at these industries as well. Success or failure in MLM/Network Marketing depends on an individual doing their homework and working hard...Period.There was a time in our country where franchising was considered unethical and was nearly banned by Congress. Network Marketing has had growing pains, but it is an empowering, legal, ethical way that the average person can apply themselves and improve the quality of their lives.Network Marketing is being taught in Universities now. Want to know the real scenario? Read Richard Poe's "Wave 3" books.This book is just the complaints of a person who didn't have what it takes.
