The pyramid you drew to showcase a real company and point out similarities has nothing to do with the pyramid scheme pyramids people are talking about here.
Because you know what the fuck this system is and are still willing to do it, there is absolutely nothing else to say here. Everybody has to make their own experiences in life, good or bad.
Still no matter how often you say, that this Blog is to tell people about what's going on in your life and not to recruit your underlings, it is clear that little Johnny Naive might read this and feel tempted because you talk about it, like it's a legitimate and even a real business. Sadly it's neither.

Glad to hear you're not too far down the rabbit hole. My advice to you is that even if you make a decent profit, take the money and run immediately. One of the ways these companies trap people is that its so easy to make a profit in the first few weeks (by pressuring friends and family) that people think they can make a good living from selling it. Then they end up investing more and more money and time into the organization until they are too far in to get out.
Also, I'm starting to get the feeling that you're using the blog to try and recruit more suckers. Am I right or wrong?

wheres the video? post it here?
As far as I can tell, you make money in two ways: 1. Selling energy drinks. 2. Signing up people to sell energy drinks and sign up further people.
I don't understand how this is any different than a pyramid scheme and I thought they were illegal.

You still haven't really answered my question, which was the first post in the thread after your OP. Maybe my question wasn't clear, though. When I asked you to describe what the business is, I didn't mean the name of the business. I meant, an explanation of what work you are doing. I do see this video you posted which does not start with a basic explanation of what labor you do in this business. It is basically going through complicated/elaborate rewards systems, which to me, seems like a credit card company explaining their business model by showing a video which explains how many reward points you need to unlock free airfare.
By far, the most important thing for you to do in this thread, in my opinion, is explain exactly what you do in this line of work. I know that wasn't the original intention of the thread, but if you don't the thread is going to be nothing except for people thinking you have been suckered into a pyramid scheme or something similar. Putting numbers aside, what do you do and how do you do it?
I think a lot of things like poker and trading fall into a pyramid scheme where basically it's just a few guys at the top who make the money, you just have to make sure you're the one there
To do that, you have to be better than 95% (or more) of people in the business. Not impossible, just unlikely. Someone is going to make it after all
First, you sign yourself up under your friend or someone who wanted you to do this, clearly they made money off of you. But they also help you sign others up. What they are paying you to do is market the brand and get others to buy into the product. Clearly the first people make money from the people under them but I have seen friends under someone and they are making more than the person they are under.
You can either sell the product to people who want the product, they buy it from your website or you get people to sign up to sell and market the product also.

Hopefully this gets through to you:
Every video I see on this subject is about either: A) How much fun and money the founders are making. B) How the payment structure works. C) How to get more people to sign up.
Don't you think if this is a viable business, it would be important to advertise is how good the product is? Not just how to sign up more people? Use your head!
