I just acted super excited about everything and asked increasingly unrealistic questions about the peak earning potential. (Like I asked about how much I could make if I got 20 friends who got 20 of their friends and we were all selling like 10 knives a week).

They were super excited to talk to me after and give me the offer. I said, “No thanks. This whole thing feels like a trick to get people to join your down line, buy a set of non-refundable demo knives, and to leverage personal relationships to pressure people to buy stuff they don’t really want. I’m just gonna go to college instead and get a job that pays me a salary.”
