    What if Martial Arts...

    What if Martial Arts was run like a Pyramid scheme?

    You get $15 per month for every person you sign up, build up that downline! LOL

    This may seem random but I just had yet another asshat try to get me into an IBO Pyramid scheme

    I had a "friend" try to sell me Mona Vie, and I said,"Oh, MLM." (Multi Level Marketing)
    She goes,"No, it's not MLM, it's network marketing..."

    Sheesh, like ya can't smell the bullsh1t a mile away?

    Although Marketing America has some cool products-they do this dna test and custom blend supplements for you. Sure, might be bullsh1t, but it's definately a cool idea.

    BTW-some Commercial MA schools are set up like MLM. You have the President, who then has district Mgrs. Each DM oversees several schools. So you have the school inastructors, who get paid, but the DM gets a share, and the pres gets a share of all the DM's $.
    Everybody's gotta kick back to Pauly.

    Pyramid scams have been around for a long time. Someone always makes lots of money, but only the few at the top. The Mafia is nothing more than a pyramid scheme. The bucks always flow upwards to the top, and the wider the base is, the more money that flows. They sell a product, which is vice and corruption, and once you are a part of the pymarid you are in for life, like it or not.
