What do you think? Let's put it like this. If there is so much money to be made then why are they trying to put you down?
Yes! Legally, they have to sell something to satisfy the government. But it is a pyramid scheme. I had a guy trying to put me down on a plane to Miami from the Dominican Republic. I was watching the DVD on my lap top and it spent 5 minutes talking about the travel and the next 40 talking about pulling more people into the game and how much you can make off of them being on your team.
As you all know I am with Tahitian Noni. It is very important to distinguish the difference between network marketing and a pyramid. With Tahitian Noni we get paid 5 different ways with the first actually marketing and selling a useful product. The other 4 ways deals with bonuses and overrides that does in fact depend on the number of people in your downline.
I have a lot of people in YTB and here's the good and the bad. The good, the service itself is great as far as buying from yourself, airline, cruises, event tickets, car rentals,etc.
You will never make the money they claim unless you recruit, recruit, recruit. You just cannot generate enough travels through your personal travel portal to make it worthwhile. The major travel portals have thousands of hits each hour and you only have about 40 people in your warm market. The rest you will have to attract to your site through internet marketing. How are you going to do that? There are just too many major travel sites and way too many YTB travel sites. They just will not find yours.
I will spend $499.00 and buy the service for myself because I travel all over th country for Tahitian Noni. I attend sporting events and other entertainment events. I can certainly benefit from owning my own travel portal. I just cannot tell people to give me $500.00 and they can own their own travel business. It just isn't going to happen unless you are going to book travel events on a monthly basis.
It can be done, but you have to know what you are up against. Don't be afraid of Network Marketing. Check out Paul Zane Pilzer as he talks about Wellness and Network Marketing as the marriage that will create the next generations of millionaires.

I have owned my own site with ytb since January because my folks signed me up and I wasn't strapped for cash at the moment. My mother joined at the time and she has been making money just telling people she knows without any type of advertising. I on the other hand shouldn't have did it because I don't really have time or motivation to do it but I'm keeping my stuff just to get the perks. So if you want to make money you can if your willing to put a little time into it. Its not a scheme though because its just like going to expedia or travelocity but you giving the money to somebody you know.
omg! every black person in st. louis is trying to get me in on this shit!!! worse than amway!
