In my little world, I recommend doing an MLM or two for folks that want to get into business for themselves, but have little or no experience or education or training IN business. In these cases, MLM`s can be good training in the basics of sales and marketing, depending upon the quality of the upline.
Once the training has been done, and plenty of "NO`s" have been experienced, it`s time to count the losses and move on to a real business.
So... in my not-so-humble opinion, good, honest MLM`s DO have a use... just not the stated or obvious ones.

My name is Kotie Joubert, I live in the Freestate in South Africa, I have done now 4 months research on a Baby Nappy Manufacturing Machine, I can get it for a bagain with material for 10 000 nappies included.
Yes there is allot of disposable nappies that are on the market , beleive me I have done my research, but this is the most hotest Business in the world.
I still have to get the money for my machine, but this business I am doing for GOD, he will give me the money to buy it. He beleives in me. Did you know how rich God really is. Well I will prove to you that if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, God will give you anything.
This machine manufactures 1000 nappies per hour, I can manufacture 8000 per day with a profit mergin of 30-50c per nappy.
My off-set points will be Hospitals, Day care centres, Flea Markets, Wholesalers ect...
You can work out yourself how much I will make per month in gross profit, not allot of advertising costs, it sells itself. And these nappies are not these cheap no name brand nappies, it is the same quality as Huggies and Cudlers.
I am very exited, tell me what you think.
Best Regards
Kotie Joubert
NS! My Business will be called "Nappies for Africa"
a. executor services: assistance to those who suddenly find themselves in this unfamiliar and complex legal situation
b. quick, easy, inexpensive will creation
c. quick easy inexpensive access to hearing aids
Any of these may lead to franchise storefronts.

Whatcha-gonna-do with your "handle" when you wake and smell the coffee?
Inquiring minds....

Well said PPL... Although I think you have misread what I wrote. It seems you have several posts scrambled together from different authors. I did not slam PrePaid Legal specifically... just took a sideways look at MLM`s in general. May I suggest you read MY posts? (They`re the ones with that cute little grandson of mine as an avitar.)
Right out of the literature, more or less... as I recall.
The "smell the coffee" inference was meant to be read as - what are you going to do when you find that your perfect MLM isn`t all that you estimated it to be?
That said, I have no argument that most hazard & casualty insurances make good fiscal sense... especially when there may be serious, unsustainable losses incurred otherwise.
I also reckon you get what you pay for too...
BUT... that`s just me. I can afford the $750/hour (my guy ain`t cheap!) price tag for the really competent legal help I need on the rare occasion I shoot from `an about to be bloodied` lip.
Of course, I have also read what they (PPL) DON`T cover... That`s a much LONGER list, quite finely printed in the contract. Have one of those excellent, bargain-basement attorneys translate those clauses & exceptions for you sometime. The coffee may not be as fresh as you suppose.
Good luck!Write from that lovely tropical isle when you`ve chalked up that first mil, OK?
NB: Could be this is why I am a tea drinker... It too is not what everyone else is doing in my little world. There`s just something about those cute little lemmings that I have yet to understand, or learn how to cope with well enough.
Or maybe, I just don`t play well with others...
Could be.

The Formula for Success:
Find a hot, HUNGRY target market.
Find out what they already want and are already buying.
Sell them more of the SAME.
Keep doing it until they won`t buy any more.
Go back to step 1.
