I'm not sure if this has already happened to you but it did to me. My friends and I were planning to go out Friday night at a nearby bar when one of our friends invited us to his apartment for a little drinking party. We just had to accompany him
pick up a friend at his office.
We went with him because we couldn't resist the invitation to free beer. Apparently, there were no person to pick up. The office building we went to was a place where they hold seminars for those who want to join a networking or pyramiding business. I don't know how my other friends talked me into being diplomatic. Since we were already there, they tugged me into giving it a try.
The speaker was this fat, young man who was bragging how he was able to buy a Jaguar through what he earned in this scheme. He was trying to be funny. The more he tried, the more I wanted to strangle him. The scheme, as he explained, goes like this -- you invite more and more people to join in the networking business, the more people you get to join, the bigger you earn. And the more people those you have invited gets to join in the scheme, the bigger you earn. Sound like a
pyramid scam to me, I thought. The joining fee is worth
thousands of dollars. No wonder that butt hole has a Jaguar.
I know I won't be talked into joining this scams. What pissed me off is that I didn't get the free beers my friend promised.
