You don't sell a product. You are required to buy one. You technically don't sell anything but the prospect of signing up others who will in turn buy product for themselves, without actually selling it to anyone, and then they will sign people up etc.
So people are technically buying a product from the owners of this "company" who are selling what looks like a tub of some sort of supplement powder? Can't cost more than $8-10 to manufacture and would probably retail in the $30-45 dollar range. Then from that sale you get $2-3 and the owner gets the rest of the profit?
But then getting back to it, you're stuck with $60 "worth" of dietary supplement powder that I would be willing to bet will last you much longer than a month.
And on top of it, instead of selling a product to people and saying "you can sell this too" and reaping to benefits of being able to sell product to anyone at any rate... you're limited to one new person a month, and that person is limited to one person a month, so it will take you 8 months to actually break even again before you start making money (your ninth month you will make something like $24, then at the end of the month you'll be ahead $512).
So with that said, all those who are asking how much he's made, you need to assume if he's on the earning plan he's projecting, he needs to have been doing this for more than 8 months to have turned a profit, so if he's already making money in less time, he's full of shit.
If I'm wrong, please correct me. I just don't understand how this can't be a scam.

Actually, the picture of the product makes it look much bigger than it is. Its only 18 ounces, barely over a pound and will probably not even last a month. It would retail for $15 max and is incredibly overpriced at $60. Is this really what you want to force your friends and family to have to buy each month?
As long as there is a product its hard to label this a pyramid scheme as the entry to the program is not just money, but the guise of purchasing a tangible product. Forcing a member to buy the product monthly to remain active does walk a fine line, but as long as the product is moving then its ok.
