That's basically the joke.

The only MLM product that I've seen actually be good for what it is and could easily be sold retail are CutCo knives. Shit, they could still keep the sharpening service (they are rather unique blades and need special sharpening equipment) and they would be still worth it.

Nothing has made slicing tomato paper thin without tearing it up easier than one of those knives.

Yeah not gonna fall for that.

Starts with MLM and then praises a product.

Yeah not going to invest there.
