Where I used to work, I knew one guy who got roped into one of those penny auction MLMs. He just could not be convinced that it was a scam no matter what I said. He was rather religious, and he seemed very set on the idea that guy running this scheme wanted to help other people get wealthy out of some sense of Christian charity. I don't know what eventually happened, but he certainly didn't get rich. So yeah, it's very impressive that Micheal actually listened and understood that he was being scammed instead of ignoring logic and digging the hole deeper.

Interestingly, if you keep adding to the pyramid, once you hit about 13 levels, it's physically impossible to keep it going because it would require more people than exist on the planet. Mathematical proof that pyramid schemes are unsustainable, no matter how long they last.

Ryan Barham No, it’s not because first of all, pyramids are illegal and get shut down in their beginning and Amway has been going for 50 years close to 51. In a pyramid them employee will never make enough money as the boss. In Amway, there are no bosses. There are uplines which aren’t bosses because they don’t tell the people they recruit when to work and they don’t pay them and they don’t tell them they have to do anything and the recruits can always make more than the uplines.
