Episode Synopsis

On this Building Fortunes Radio Show Scott Johnson and Peter Mingils discuss interview of Comedian Adam Conover and Bridgette Read with comments about Always Stupid Marco Moukhaiber. Scott Johnson and Peter Mingils have spoken about Bridgette Read's book, "Little bosses everywhere" and her interviews online with various anti-mlm hosts. Recently she was in full display on a YouTube interview with Adam Conover.Adam seems to be a good person who revealed his bias and lack of knowledge about MLM as he bantered back and forth with Bridgette Read. Bridgette took a few years to put together her newest book, "Little Bosses Everywhere". Bridgette does what many people who are more academic than real-world and speaks confidently about MLM based on her flawed research about the industry. Following Robert FitzPatrick, the self-proclaimed MLM expert, and his research and publications, like Ponzinomics, this proved to be misguided by Bridgette. Always Stupid Marco Moukhaiber follows the same path. However, it should be noted that he would end up in the same place or worse with or without the help of Robert FitzPatrick. Listen in and make your own opinion. You can see more of what Scott Johnson has on https://www.facebook.com/stoptheamwaytoolscam The Amway tools scam is a hidden profit scheme within the Amway multi-level marketing (MLM) structure that exploits distributors, often leaving them with financial losses instead of the promised wealth. Amway, a well-known MLM company, markets health, beauty, and home products through independent business owners (IBOs). While the company emphasizes product sales, the real money for top-tier distributors, often at the Diamond level or above, comes from selling motivational "tools” like books, tapes, seminars, and rallies, not from product sales. These tools, promoted as essential for success, create a separate revenue stream that disproportionately benefits upline leaders while draining the profits of lower-level distributors.Distributors are pressured to purchase these overpriced tools, often costing hundreds or thousands annually, with promises of learning the secrets to building a lucrative Amway business. However, studies and lawsuits reveal that 99% of Amway distributors lose money, with average earnings below $100 monthly after expenses. The tools business, controlled by high-ranking distributors like Dexter Yager, generates millions for the elite, who earn significant markups on items like cassette tapes sold at rallies for up to $10,000 a night in cash. Meanwhile, new recruits face high startup costs—starter kits, training sessions, and product samples—further eroding their profits. This creates a pyramid-like structure where uplines profit from downlines' purchases, not retail sales, resembling an illegal scheme.
