Timing is everything.

Getting into a Multilevel marketing business opportunity at the very beginning is really exciting.  There's hardly anyone signed up and everyone will be going under you. Man, can you believe your luck.  They'll tell you things like "What if you were there day one when one of the big name MLM's started.

There's something they won't tell you though, 99.9% of new start ups fail within the first two years.  So now where are you.  A big downline that is looking at you as the one that screwed them all.
