Mom steals $5K from her son's bank account to buy MLM products, family criticizes son for calling the police on her: 'I'd been saving money because my dog needs liver surgery'

Multi-level marketing schemes are designed to sell you a lie. Sure, special candles you plug in, makeup, or Tupperware might not be faulty products, and you can easily understand why someone would want to buy them. The lie doesn't lie in the products being bad. The lie lies in the idea that selling makeup door to door will be the key to financial independence. It's the same lie sold to young moms about making tons of money as an Instagram or TikTok influencer. It's like having a job without actually having a job! Most of us who grew up around women in pyramid schemes or who have gotten messages from high school acquaintances trying to rope you into one know that you're going to lose more money than you make with pyramid schemes. That won't stop thousands of underemployed people from giving it the old college try. What's the worst thing that could happen?
