Beware
They recruit you and then after you sign up you are informed that your job is to recruit others. The initial presentation shows you that you can also earn money by selling directly to customers. However, commission rates are much higher after you recruit at least 3 people. They do not emphasize any products and every single meeting is about trying to push to you contact 25 friends/ family. They keep telling you that the business is whatever you want it to be. However, they will tell you it is crucial for you to help families. Even if you have another job, they push you to recruit. They even try to have you attend company conventions across North America. This company recruits people who are vulnerable who have typically unfulfilling careers and lead them to believe that having more money is the answer to their problems. The person who recruited my told me that even if you sign someone up and they do not pursue the opportunity further, they are only out $200. Imagine telling a friend to spend money that they could be buying groceries with and not caring that your friend just wasted their hard earned income. Beware of MLM opportunities because the business atmosphere can be cult-like. The WFG mission statement is to 'not leave any families behind.' However their parent company has an objective, like any other for profit organization, to make a profit. The problem is that most people do not understand finance very well, and they oversimplify economics to make it sound like they will save the middle-class.
