What It's About

"We are family..." takes on a whole new meaning with multilevel marketing.

Notes from Chris

Episode 1619
Nothing says “family” like “Will you join my network marketing program?” or “Can I take 20 minutes of your time to tell you about a wonderful opportunity?

Today’s caller finds herself in this precarious situation. Should she in fact waste all of her money or never speak to her sister again or might there be some third or fourth option?
"Hi Chris, this is Caroline and I recently found your show through the Happier Podcast. I’m really enjoying the stories, puns, and helpful content. So I need help! My sister has recently joined a multilevel marketing company, and she won't stop pestering the rest of the family to "get in while we can." I made the mistake of agreeing to go to one of her presentations. Now I'm worried I'll end up getting excited too ... and wasting my money. How can I back out? And what if I'm missing the opportunity of a lifetime?? Just kidding—I'm pretty much sure it's not that. But how are you so sure that all of these programs are so bad? What do I tell her?"
