Hello Linda, It's true that right now I do not go on with my online business; but I do not consider myself in the 97% because this is just a temporarly issue. I believe one person is able to do really well just one thing at a time. And now my new offline business do not alowe me to do more than I do online. So, I decided to use this time for learning and somekind of free time with friends.

Hi ya'll, I just edited my original post in this thread because I didn't express what I really wanted to say. What I wanted to do was offer the possibility of considering yourselves to be MORE successful that you might previously have done. If you are making ANY money with your business venture, you are more successful than most. If you are making $300 or more a month with your venture, you are in the top 3%. My purpose was to empower.

Since I: A. Have been in and out of MLM for OVER 35 years. B. Have studied and reaseached it. C.Know people who have earned Millions doing it. D. Had a downline in excess of 1,200 (which is not much) E. Have known many mlm leaders and "gurus" F. Have the single most knowledgeable person there is in mlm as a friend. (Len Clements) Now in spite of my very extensive knowledge of mlm, I am NOT good at it and I do not claim to be. I DO NOT SUFFER FOOLS or those who question my integrity. Nor do I contact a sufficent number of people or do the other things needed to succeed in it. My failure in MLM is MY fault. It is not the fault of the industry, the company or the pay plan. All that said, I disgaree with the figures you are using as a 3% success rate is low as is the figure of $300. People who really want to know about MLM should read Len's book, "Inside Network Marketing" (the 2nd edition.)

Do not tell me what you did, tell me what I need to do so I can do better then what you did.

Linda, Thanks For The Invite. Very interesting ... I Sure Like Pat's Input. Your Friend Elbert L ( gouardhead ) .
