Those people are so bootleg.
It blows my mind that people are so fukking gullible.
What I've found is that people will do anything for the almighty dollar.

Even if it supercedes any rationality, common sense, or logical thinking.

Also, this economy sucks...which leads a lot of people trying to make money without having to get a real job. But honestly...I don't think most of the people involved in MLMs don't want a job...they probably do but can't get one/nobody wants to hire them. Probably cause they don't have any skills, no college degree (associate, bachelor, masters,) barely graduated high school, and no real experience. The job market is terrible.

Also, somebody said this in another one of these threads and it really hit me. The reason you see so many blacks, hispanics, and other minorities in these mlms is because there is no real colossal business ownership amongst those communities where there own people can seek employment on the level of whites. Most of our mom's and dad's (if they're still around) don't own or work for fortune 500 level companies. I saw it all the time in college and the years after college. Matt, Zach, Zoe, And Cloe barely coast through college while partying and whatnot, and then they graduate and immediately get hired at their parent's firm or through a friend at so and so's company with no experience at all and are set in their 20s. That's the advantage of being white and having a 400 year head start on the competition.

As for black people. The blacks that are in corporate are a minority and aside from HR or PR...really wield no power and if they do don't put other blacks on and are content in doing so. Most black people are doing service industry type jobs (custodian, mechanic, security, ems/emt, etc), have low wage paying jobs (fast food, cleaning,) or are unemployed (probably due to no qualifications, criminal records, job discrimination, etc), birthed into generational poverty.

It's easy to be struggling without any idea of how business, economics, or even money works and get caught up in the glamor and glitz and be sold the idea of becoming a millionaire without a job or putting in real work. That's why they are so adept in putting the end result in their videos (expensive sports and luxury cars, exotic beach locales, extravagant condominiums and mansions, wild club parties with beautiful women, etc) and not the steps it took to get their. It's a scam in and of itself.

a lot of the postings were deleted. All of this happened last night on fb around 3 am. that bytch nikka greg deleted them

heres another top ex member looks like he's gonna cry





:mjlol: at the sappy music

Of course wake Up Now wasn't going to last. How can a company that sells off brand energy drinks that cost more than red bull and discounts you can find online with no real business model sustain itself? They obviously were losing more money than they were making. It was built to fail.

And Logan talks about starting a new mlm...which will fail as well...and the next one...and the next one...rinse & repeat.

I'm fukking sick and tired of black people getting fukked over man. All these sleazy white cats getting rich and us getting poorer. I'm sick and tired of seeing us working at McDonald's for privileged as Sholes and taking out their trash. I'm sick of seeing brothers and sisters with drive, determination, and ideas hanging out to dry. In a world where no one wants to give us the basic tents of survival that should be guaranteed human rights. I am just sick of it alll...seeing shot like this only drives me to become more successful and when I do all of these money hungry crackers gonna have to kiss my ass.

Where Giovanni Ribisi says to Vin Diesel that the FBI is gonna be at their offices in 30 minutes...and then all they can see are five school buses with them letters ready to haul people off to jail.

He made over 300,000 K with rasscolot c00nupnow? :what::camby:

He looks sadden and nervous. :ohhh:

:rudy:
Even worse...he's directing people from one scam company that failed (wake up now) to another (motor club america). This guy doesn't know how to make money without an mlm...or just choose to pursue it cause they're experienced. No reputable company would hire him at this point with his involvement in those companies. I'm pretty sure he's good money while the people in/on his team have no money.
