Is there a thing as a Meaningful MLM?

Are you living a fulfilling life? I'm 42 now, and constantly asking myself what more I can do to help others.

In fact, when I started online, I had the noblest ideal. I am a christian and was planning to use my earnings (which I don't really need myself as God has blessed me with quite enough) to help needy people.

What I quickly discovered online was that 90% of the opportunities - required some form of leveraging off other people's finances to benefit your own. Meaning, to get to the top, you often need to screw people over - to put it bluntly.

I hated this.

Then I found WA! This is the first community I'd spontaneously recommend to ANYONE wanting to build an online career.

In addition, I'm starting up a team in a christian company that is precisely in the business off saving lives. If you are all fed up with self-serving MLMs that teach people how to splurge all their commissions on yachts and big houses - this may be a breath of fresh air for you.

If you are keen to support out cause, message me for details. Even if you're not keen, I would love your comments on what you think of MLMs in general? Is there really a meaningful opportunity online?

Note : This may well be the only meaningful opportunity I ever came across online. And a perfect match for WA.

PS. can you make alot of money from this? Yes. do you need to screw people over and make them lose the shirts off their backs? NO. Can you REALLY SAVE LIVES...yes!
