Once I turned 18, I started drinking the MLM Kool-Aid bcuz our entire lives we struggled & the dream they sold you was like your first hit of drugs. That so called dream did not discriminate against age, sex or race. It felt as if you knew something that no one else knew, you were special & that alone would be the beacon to your success. I learned much later that the actual products that these companies sell are shit, whether it's vitamins, shakes, drinks, travel, insurance or telecommunications bcuz their goal is membership, not product recognition bcuz they're not designed to compete in the free market.

Thank you for another brilliant documentary. When people are in need, they often fall into these schemes.

[@1kaleeeeee]

I have recently had the same epiphany! The only way to be rich/successful is discipline and hard work over the course of a long period of time. It’s not easy at all! It’s very hard. The moment you realize that is the moment you’ll succeed and the gurus will make you sick!

[@armincal9834]

Working smart not hard,and yes over a long period of time.working hard alone is not enough you also need to be extremely lucky because you are competing with millions of people(not to mention foreign competition) no matter which business/trade you work in

[@davisholman8149]

I did it - took about 5 or 6 years. Got my degree in technical sales - associate degree is medical science. Sold Pharma, then medical devices, then bio tech medical devices. I was a divorced mom with 3 kids. I enjoyed my career, worked very hard. Grateful I did it when I did - it is a lot harder to do in today’s environment - some may be able to do OK with the right connections,

[@presidential3228]

nope, working hard never got anybody rich, its working smart, you can work 60 hours a week until u die n be broke af, make smart moves with your money invest save.

[@kenallen8213]

This is hands down the absolute greatest video I've ever seen on get rich quick schemes and fake gurus period end of story. James Jani's extraordinarily articulate yet simple breakdown of this chaotic world of deception is truly outstanding. His delivery, his cadence, his choice of words, his research all achieve the intended effect. This video is for people who are objective. And Jani delivers his message with skill and mastery. I've seen a number of videos on this subject. But JJ delivers the penultimate rebuttal to the horrific world of MLM madness and fake gurus. Thank you James Jani for this outstanding achievement.

[@xelilof]

Thank you for telling the truth, millions of people have fallen victims of these scams

[@eliasbryce8]

James, thank you for acknowledging that absolutely ALL people can fall into such schemes, or also cults and frauds. You can be the smartest and most sceptical person in existence, but your one moment of vulnerability or inattentiveness can lead to it

[@MichaelOblitey]

Such an eye opening video for sure! Definitely helped me out as well! He inspires me so much with my channel!

[@classicsciencefictionhorro1665]

You keep telling yourself that. The fact is that highly intelligent and educated people don't fall for these schemes. There are studies on this.

[@pitotin7733]

Not true, it’s just making excuses for his audience. If you fall for something like this, well you aren’t even close as smart as you believe.

Thinking you're the smartest person out there is exactly the mindset that makes you vulnerable :ь

The more I learn about these pyramid schemes the more my friend's situation keeps geting to the forefront of my mind. She works for a leggit grocery delivery co mpany but for very low wages, no overtimes and has chosen that job over a highly paid one. She works 7 days a week 13h shifts. That company has promised her the world as in fast progress. All she talks about is work. They recently sent her on a 5 day training course where affiliates from the usa (friend is based in the uk) were giving them motivational speeches. I know this isnt a pyramid scheme but it isnt far from it. It' mental to see your friend change overnight after a couple of job interviews ..

[@CrustyUgg]

You hit it on the head. A good rule I always try to follow is nothing comes east in life. The quote “if it’s to good to be true, then it’s probably not true” was quoted for a reason. No one what’s to be embarrassed or admit they have been a victim of these schemes. However I bet almost every single person has fallen into something at some point in their lifetime.

[@bellamybomb]

I stumbled onto your channel one day when one of your videos showed up in my Recommendations list (the one about the rise of fake gurus), and was blown away at the level of production. Everything is done really well, from editing, to sound and content, and I love how honest you come across in your videos as well as with being open with your viewers. This has easily become one of my favourite KZbin documentary channels, and I'd like to thank you for making these videos. I know that so much effort goes into producing every one of them, and for that we're all appreciative. Huge respect to you Mr Jani!

While in college in the 90’s, Carlton Sheets, Don Le Pre and William J. McCorkle provided me with a welcomed late night study breaks. I ended up buying one of Le Pre’s courses and picked up Sheets’ program at a garage sale. They were both eye opening, but not in the sense that making money was easy by “following their system”, but how lucrative it is to sell a dream of getting rich. Decades later, the marketing tactics are still there, but the product has changed. Your vids and info are invaluable. Thank you.

[@MannyloAnimeSquad]

if people would stop comparing themselves and learn to be content with what they have this problem would not be such a big issue... same for many things like how people physically look, or act, etc...

[@RM-vx1kc]

That’s what Bible teaches

[@henriklarsson5221]

Yeah but it also teaches, "ask and you shall receive", which is very confusing when in the next chapter(not literally the next) it can say "blessed are the poor, meek and humble"... "Impossible for a rich man to get into heaven" etc. We all know though, that we wont receive just because we ask, fast and pray. People still die, wars continue, money evades people, tsunamis come in etc etc. Some people receive, but they can never prove if it was God or themselves being lucky or working really hard, because another person could receive just as much without being a believer. And just like with these gurus and pyramids schemes, they have covered their backs. Because if you don´t receive blessings, or you can´t move that mountain(or reach the top), then it YOUR fault for having to little faith etc. Pray more, fast more, give more, tithe more, etc. Don´t get me started on the obvious contradictions of the old and new testament. Not that i care what people believe, that is their own life, i just want people to question more. And of course there are churches that behave good and justly, compared to other institutions within the religious realm. I love the bibles words about loving your neighbor and treating others as you want to be treated yourself, but as with all snake-oil salesmen they always have some truths in there to make people blind to the rest of it. 9) On that day you will not question me about anything. Amen, amen, I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in my name he will give you. Until now you have not asked anything in my name; ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be complete. (John 16:23-24 NAB)

[@MannyloAnimeSquad]

@@henriklarsson5221 Dont forget about the verse that talks about God not giving one what they ask for if they will use it toward their own lusts... For example, if you only want a woman for sex then He will not bless you in that area and even if you "get" a women afterwards that does not mean its from God.

[@henriklarsson5221]

@@MannyloAnimeSquad Well you kind of made the point there, you can´t prove that nor can the other side. So the main point is that there is no proof. And btw my quote from Jesus, who is God in most Christians eyes, said you could do great wonders with real faith(which we never see, and even if they claim so it can never be proven)... i was not talking about sex. He(God) did say many things to the Israelites about killing all men, women and children tough, and taking the virgins as loot. That is another story tough.
