Default Quixstar?

Anybody get suckered into one of these scams? I went to a seminar this weekend and had no idea stuff like this was even possible.

Is this one of those things you go to fora free MP3 player and dinner where they try and sell you their **** so that you can sell it for a profit? My SO got some crap in the mail about this and I hate having to prover to her that all they will do is add your name to a junk mail list and rip you off in the end!

You can actually make a killing off of it if you have the people skills. Few of my friends are banking on it.

^ yeah, as with all sales jobs. i dont think they are bad if you something free, typically only the timeshare ones do it though. the rest are real scams and are operating off the law of averages.

I wouldn't even go that far. Going to that seminar was like going to a cult meeting. What really confuses me is one of my engineer co-worker (who makes really good money) is totally hooked into this scam. I met even more engineers at this thing to and that blew my mind even more.
