Commonly abbreviated MLM, it's a form of selling a product whereby one person recruits other salespeople, who recruits other salespeople, ad nausea and after each sale, everybody above the salesman gets a small piece of commission. To make money in one (98%+ of people don't), one should place much more emphasis on recruiting than sales. Amway is probably the most well-known MLM. Many MLMs have "optional" national meetings, motivational books and tapes, and other various expenses. The cost of these comes out of pocket of the [individual]. As a general rule, if you can be one of the first people to join a [successful] MLM, you'll make a lot of money, especially if you can sell all of this crap to your downline. However, if [you're not] in this lucky 1-2%, you'll honestly be lucky to break even in your expenses. There is some technical difference between a [pyramid scheme], which is illegal, and an MLM, which is legal. However, nobody but the high-priced lawyers which keep MLMs in business and stealing the money of its starry-eyed employees seem to know what this difference is.
