We've All Spent $1400 or More On Stupider Things Over a Course of 10 Months !
$1400 is about what it takes to break even with my MLM company.. even if you sit back and basically do nothing. This amount is to pay for product and shipping costs for a duration of about your first 10 months in the business.
So that is broken down to about $140 per month.
Guess what almost always happens by your 10th month or sometimes before that ? You break even and then begin to make a profit above and beyond your cost every month after.
If you don't see the value in this, then please go crawl back into your hole or wherever it was you just came from. With thinking such as that, you will never start your own business or make an ever increasing residual income for that matter.
You will forever stay a slave to the grind most likely beyond your retirement years.
The bottom line is.. it takes some money to make money. Period !

OK now back to my story :)
Here's some proof that $1400 devoted to network marketing is the best decision you could ever make.
Let's say you wanted to start a different kind of business instead.. like a professional pressure cleaning business which is what I did 3 years ago.
How much do you think that costed me to start and promote in order for my phone to ring to have potential jobs coming in ?
Here's a rough figure.. try over $19,000.
That was for the equipment, trailer, accessories, 300 gallon water tank, chemical tanks, chemicals to get started, occupational license, office supplies and advertising in my first year.
One more thing.. I still had to trade my car in for a truck that could pull the trailer plus I had to have occupational insurance on top of that !
So if you think that $1400 over the course of 10 months is a lot of money to spend (on something that is going to positively change your life in the near future).. you're being absolutely silly.

Let's make a comparison in benefits of both types of businesses:
Your network marketing business has little start-up cost, you don't have to commute to a job, wake up when you want to, no boss or customers complaining, no longer trade your time in for a crappy hourly wage, meet other like-minded people (real friends, not users), receive a virtually free education in business/marketing by people who are in business, definitely have more time to spend with your spouse, family members and friends, consume a great health product (less illness, more energy & longevity), own a business you will be proud of within 2 - 4 years, take vacations or days off and have no one to answer to, have access to an unlimited earning potential (the more effort you put in the more you can get out), have the ability to Leverage off of other peoples efforts to build your network faster, the product or service you promote qualifies as a Tax Write-Off, start saying "Good-Bye" to bad economy's forever.
You know what ?
I'm not even going to bother mentioning the benefits to the conventional business because they don't pale in comparison (hands down) !

Oh.. you need another example to convince you of the value ?
OK no problem at all :)
You want to be a doctor you say ? ? Yes they make good money, right ?
Sure but they need a college degree to get there and after that they end up working long hours for many years to come.
Yea that degree.. (it costs a lot more than what my pressure cleaning business "start-up" cost was).
That could be a big problem for you since you say you can't afford to even spend $1400 in the first 10 months of my network marketing opportunity...
If none of this has convinced you that it would be foolish not to start your own MLM business, then I don't know what else to ever say to you.
Some people get it and some don't.
Again, I've spent $1400 on more stupider things in life that never had the potential to make me a residual income for the rest of my life.

- Hi John, Thanks for the comment :)
I agree with that consumption. What we do is a true business & "profession" and it needs to be treated as such. We all know most conventional businesses have a much greater start-up cost & some require costly degrees or certifications. By far this industry has a lower cost to be a part of which includes your minimum auto-ship & any training offered by the company or upline. Additional training costs extra but no matter what, the final expenses per year are so much less & the potential income can be greater than a doctors if serious effort is put into it (done correctly of course). The truth is, almost anyone can be a successful network marketer (even part time) if they stop trying to sell the product or service & start promoting themselves through socializing with others. Everyone's being told they need to be experts in internet marketing & it's far from the truth. If anyone wants to be more effective, drop me a line :)

- Bill: I think when MLM's see the REAL value they offor the registration fees will reflect that. I think two grand should be a starting fee people will treat it like a business!!
all the best; John
