Did anyone hear this episode? I thought of MM the entire time. I loved that they went to the conference and got zero answers about what Wake Up Now is, but it makes my heart hurt to think of how many people get sucked in to MLM schemes. It's worth a listen.

lol, apparently none of these people tried to sell greeting cards and wrapping paper to their neighbors and family as kids... (not for school fundraising).

I have someone on my fb who falls prey to this stuff all the time. When you ask her in depth questions about her claims, it's this bizarre (and optimistic!) run around about how it will change your life. All fluff, no substance--and utterly facinating.

Yep! I've been listening to random episodes over the last few weeks and came upon this one. What a strange organization. Nobody has any idea what the company is!

I can't even imagine being so gullible as an adult...
I 'knew' a woman who had an amazing business making super fancy dog collars (silks, brocades, crystals, beads etc) each cost a minimum of $50 and she sold them easily. She joined a 'herbalife' type company and eventually stopped doing anything with her legitimate business.
