"Thanks David. Perhaps. A wise dude once told me, "Benin if you see someone who has achieved success...Don't care who it is or how much success we're talking about...that person has had to fight hard for it." This was perhaps 15 or 20 yrs ago and at the time the fellow was one of the most successful entrepreneurs that I knew. The same rings true today. In this regards there are fundamentals of life that never change. You mentioned pyramids...I am interpreting this as the gifting schemes and so forth and not as direct sales. Am I right on that? B/C the networking industry has had the unfortunate task of having to differentiate itself from the pyramid industries for various reasons and I just felt it was worth pointing out for anyone who may be reading that they are different." - Benin
