Pyramid Scheme by FRICKO MODE January 5, 2022

pyramid scheme 

A fraudulent business model, illegal in most places, in which participants are paid to recruit more participants, rather than commissions on sales.

Frequently passed off as Multi-Level Marketing by incorporating sales of an unmarketable product or service into the scheme. In such cases, participants are usually required to maintain a monthly purchase quota to qualify for payments.

Pyramid schemes market to prospective participants while Multi-Level Marketing plans market to prospective consumers. Pyramid schemes fail because scam participants are not a viable market. Most of the participants pay more money to participate than they receive for participating because there aren't enough suckers left to recruit.

Once the suckers figure that out and quit paying into the scheme, those who recruited them start losing money too, and then they quit. The scam shrivels even faster than it grew.

Pyramid Scheme 

The best sceme to ever set up once you learn to never underestimate the stupidity of the human majority. Just make sure you don't get caught, though.

I started a pyramid scheme eight years ago, and made $32,761,449 before people found out about it. But by then, I had already retired to the remote jungles of Brazil, where I built my deluxe compound equipped with the latest anti-tracking technology.

pyramid scheme 

illegal money-making arrangement where great wealth is promised, usually in a relatively short period of time.
very few people, if anyone, end up making any money, and in fact end up GIVING money in their vain hope of striking it rich.

there are many organizations which are, in reality,legalized versions of the pyramid scheme - Amway is probably the most well known and has been around the longest.
