I’m not exactly sure when this one started, but it appears it has been around for a long time.  The really sad part is that people have been getting ripped off from this one for far too long, and it doesn’t look like it’s going to be stopped anytime soon.

There was a period of time a few years ago that it looked like people were starting to be able to get away from it, but recently, it seems, they are being sucked right back into it again.

It’s kind of sad how it works.  People get in because they think it’s what they are supposed to do.  The person at the top makes all the money, but there are a few others who make decent money.  Unfortunately, the people at the bottom don’t make any money.  Even worse, it’s virtually impossible for them to move up and start making any real money.

Why can’t they move up?  Well, there’s a lot of factors.  For one, the people at the top make it very difficult for the bottom people to move up.  Out of self-preservation, they don’t want to be replaced, and there are only so many top spots.  Also, the people at the bottom have been conditioned to think that they are always going to be bottom people, so they don’t try very hard to move up.  They have just sort of decided to stay at the bottom because that’s where they think they belong.

Have you ever heard of this horrible Pyramid Scheme?

It’s called a JOB!

For all you out there that think franchising and network marketing is a Pyramid Scam, you might want to simply consider the story I just laid out.  Rags to riches stories DO happen in the work force, but do an honest assessment from your working career and tell me how many people you have seen move from the mail room to the board room?  How many didn’t?

In many cases these same people that accomplished this feat would have probably done so running their own enterprise as well.

Now, I’m not telling you that you should quit your job.  Believe it or not, I still have my job as a pilot for a large, US airline.  I love it, but I put it in perspective.  I realized after 40% paycuts, loss of pension, and decreased medical benefits that I had to do something outside of my job if I really wanted to get ahead.

I’m simply challenging you to think outside the box a little bit, and open up the blinders to the truth instead of what you have been told or conditioned to believe.

I’m going to re-post this video by Robert Kiyosaki because I believe it’s important for people to understand why they AREN’T getting ahead.  It’s not entirely their fault, but it takes education to understand how to change it.  No, you don’t need to go back to school to get an MBA.  All the education you need is readily available for free or very low cost.  It’s on the Internet, in bookstores, and on DVD.  You just have to make a decision to change what you are putting into your mind!

Let me ask you one final question.

If I offered you a McDonald’s franchise for less than $500, provided all the training to run it for free, created an environment where you could add more franchises at little to no cost, and you could run it from home…Would you be slightly interested?

Of course you would.  Don’t overlook the home based business industry.  Yes, just like bad franchises, there are bad business opportunities.  And just like franchises, there are bad people to get in business with.  But after some basic investigation you will find that networking provides one of the few options for a person of modest means to get involved in personal business ownership without the large investment or a Harvard MBA.

Here’s a brief look at the differences between franchising and a home based business.
