L.,
After reading some of the responses you've had on the Mamasource website, I felt compelled to warn you -- just in case a red flag wasn't going up already for you. Please be careful of pyramid marketing schemes (not necessarily reputable home businesses like Southern Living or Mary kay), but ones that don't tell you what they do or sell upfront. I've always heard from business associates that any business that won't tell you who they are/what they are upfront (but force you to sit through an 'informational meeting/session' first to find out more info) is not telling the truth.
Real businesses are proud of who they are and are more than happy to tell you their revenue, their profits, losses, what they do, what they sell or buy, etc. -- all this UPFRONT. So just be aware...if it sounds too good to be true (without much effort)... it usually is. And these pyramid bussinesses always prey upon those less fortunate in tough times because that's when you're really looking for a miracle to pull you out. They have the most success with those in tough times -- notice they never advertise or set up booths at Willow Bend mall or outside Neiman Marcus. Just be careful.
I would go for a conventional part-time job -- either in retail, babysitting or temp agency. That might be your best bet to find a reliable, steady income. I'll be praying for a good opportunity to come your way.
Sorry to be cynical, but I really felt led to send this email to warn you, just in case. I had a friend who was going through financial problems that went after a pyramid scheme and it led nowhere after she already invested some of her hard-earned money. And of course, my husband (before we were married) was invited to a "dinner party" but it turned out to be a marketing/selling pitch for a pyramid scheme, too. He didn't buy into it because he was so mad he was deceived and the whole idea sounded ridiculous and too good to be true. Better safe than sorry, right?
