An MLM can ship real powder and still be a bad deal. The question is not “is there a product?” The question is who pays whom, and whether the story still works if nobody else joins.
Most people who hear the pitch are not looking at the disclosure tables. Look anyway. If the median participant loses money after inventory and events, the lifestyle photos are recruitment ads.
We review the pattern, not every logo. If a specific company has a public enforcement record, cite that record. Do not promote a “better upline.”
