: READ ENRIQUE'S POST BELOW. SEE ANYWHERE WHERE HE COMPARES MLM WITH PYRAMIDS? <dir>: Posted by Enrique on December 10, 2003 at 00:26:37: : In Reply to: Primerica is MLM by legal definition posted by eric on December 08, 2003 at 16:26:21: : Sorry, but I disagree. Since you are whipping out your "LEGAL" stick, I'll address it from that perspective. : 1) Is Primerica "any person, firm, corporation, or other business entity"? Yes. : 2) Does PFS "sell, distribute, or supply for a valuable consideration goods or services" ? Yes. : 3) Do they do 2) "through independent agents, contractors, or distributors at different levels"? Yes. : 4) Can "such participants recruit other participants" ? Yes. : 5) Are "commissions, cross-commissions, bonuses, refunds, discounts, dividends, or other considerations in the program paid as a result of the sale of such goods or services" ? Yes. : 6) Are PFS reps paid for "the recruitment"? *No*. : 7) Are PFS reps paid for the "actions, or performances of additional participants"? Yes. : PFS fails point 6, therefore, LEGALLY (your word) its not an MLM. : Yes, I admit I'm arguing semantics. But you started it. If you want to toss down the "LEGALESE" gauntlet, I dont mind picking it up and smacking you with it. I proved that one tiny phrase in your legal definition doesnt apply, therefore, in LEGAL terms, Primerica isn't an MLM.
