This from npub1hykucplphuhelaxutcw4jw3vuu7gcg42czhqmk7jhchs8vdga4fsj73p33 (npub1hyk…3p33) is great regarding MLM scams and "passive income". I remember when some uni friends of my son who had been conned into an MLM gave me the pitch. They explained the difference between active income (you work for it) and passive income (it just rolls in).

They asked which I preferred and I said "active income, of course, I'm a worker." That was the end of the pitch. We bought some rubbish goods to help them, and they got out fairly quickly IIRC.
