They're bad. I say that as someone who's mother is part of one. Weirdly, she actually does make money off of it. They're still bad.

They are insidious. Ive known women that I thought were smart get involved with them and theres no convincing them that its garbage. Two were engineers but still got involved in that shit (beachbody & pampered chef). My friendships broke down with them because I had no interest in buying that garbage. Yeah pampered chef is garbage, you really only need a good set of knives in the kitchen, not all those gadgets.

They're awful. They only exist to exploit people who just want to earn a living. They use every bullshit tactic that they can to trick people (usually young women) into spending hundreds or even thousands of their own money for zero return. They're a blight on society and I genuinely hate them.

Never fell for it (thanks to Penn And Teller) but I did have several family members and friends who tried to get me into it. Hell once I started looking for jobs almost 90% of the listing are MLMs.

TLDR: Peanut Butter >>>>>>>>> MLM > Devil > Ponzi

Let's say the geographical sea level is 0 or average. If something is objectively good, just imagine you're building a stairway to heaven. The better that something is, the higher that stairway will be. So peanut butter, which is pretty much perfect, means you're knocking on heaven's door.

If something is bad then you're digging all the way down to hell and to the Devil's chamber itself.

=================================
MLM is something like this:

Devil: SHIT! FOR GOD'S SAKE CAN YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE STOP KNOCKING ON MY CEILING? I'M TRYING TO BEAT BATTLETOADS HERE!

God: *** Mmm? Someone called? ***
=================================

Please excuse my lame attempt at making a joke. The point is MLM=bad, real bad. The only thing worse is the pyramid scheme such as ponzi and if someone's not careful they'll basically end up here. MLM enforces minimum spending iirc so you're there only to maintain its cash flow by parting with your own cash.

=================================
Ponzi is you playing Battletoads with the Devil.

Devil: Oh. My. God! I never made it this far! Hahahaha. I'll definitely beat it this time. Thanks for your help buddy! Oh yeah, those cheat codes too!

God: *** Mmm? Someone called? ***

You: Hahaha. Don't mention it bud. Now we have to beat th-

Devil: Dudeee...no spoiler please!

5 seconds later...

Devil: Hey hey why are you kicking me? ... dude c'mon man stop that! ... HEY! ...
HEY! I'M FUCKING SERIOUS HERE!
***Toad dies for good***
GODDAMNIT!

God: *** wearing headphone ***

Of course you finish the rest of the game by yourself; forever showing the Devil that his sweet whisper is nothing when compared to the unfathomable depth of human's greed.

I was friends with a poor girl in 5th grade who slept on three old mattresses with no comforter etc, her mother did this shit and only this shit.

Always left a pretty negative feeling with me about them.

That shit was really prominent in my childhood, I'm first generation American born so all my older cousins and their parents my parents aunts and uncles are all immigrants. I remember seeing boxes of shit at family parties and they'd try to sell stuff and as a kid it all felt kind of fishy to me and now as an adult I understand that it's all predatory and they target immigrants and it's the reason a lot of relationships among my extended family members were broken for a while.

I'm 45 and have never been approached to be part of one of these schemes. Maybe because I don't have friends and the only family I really talk to are my immediate family and like one aunt.
