Rambling Guy:
"So I started my own business. You heard of Quixtar? They used to be Amway but now they do everything online. I used to work at Target but now I'm on disability because I couldn't handle the stress. Anyway, with this business, you sell stuff that people need anyway like dog food and vitamins and stuff and the more people you get underneath you, the more the money just rolls in. Are you interested?"
Quiet Guy:
"Actually, I have a good job that pays really well."
Rambling Guy:
"So you won't be mad if I retire before you?"

Very well said...and pretty darn accurate for people who are willing to work. I have been associated with Awmay (now Quixtar) for a dozen years. Yes, there's money, but the real benefit to me is a terrific network of quality people and a part-time way to get full-time income. Having no previous business experience, I was very glad to have a "sponsor" provided to me to help me learn the ropes. Are you an IBO already?
