Pyramid Scheme

            I tell you people in my family & friends must love pyramid schemes.  Every time you turn around someone wants to send your phone number, address or email address to some company in hopes that you will join this organization.  Well Honey don’t drink the punch.  I understand you’re trying to start a business and you want to tell others about it but I am so not interested. I love how they start off by telling you it’s not a pyramid scheme, but then by the time they finish I repeat what they just said to me in a way that they understand it is.  Now if this is your hustle by all means do you, but my information isn’t for sale nor have you been approved to use it.  I don’t care if your sell Amway, Quixtar, Purchase Plus or going door to door selling vacuums – Kee isn’t into it.  I’m not knocking your hustle, but let me just tell you this.  I had 3 relatives talk me into this foolishness only to discover after they got me in they dropped off the face of the map. I have a problem with investing my money into things and not seeing a return and when it's all said and done and I count up the cost of my investment and it doesn’t balance out even.  That leaves bitter taste in my mouth.  Yes I know you have to tell your friends. It’s a way to open their eyes up to this great opportunity you discovered, by let me let you in on a secret I don’t even like it when folks are in my neighborhood going door to door trying to sell things I don’t want either.   I’m not mean but there is so much more I can invest my time, money and attention too.  Hey if it works for you then kudos, but Kee isn’t interested. Oh and the phrase you have to spend money to make money yes that’s true, but if you can’t show me how this has truly turned your life around then I’m not biting.  When I say turn your life around 42 hours doesn’t count.  You need to be able to show some type of longevity.
